Exterior concrete vs interior concrete (WHATS THAT MEAN) ???? 

Roy this video is from 1 year ago. I wish I could get Jess back working with us.

Thanks John. I used karl the kubota many times to place concrete. Works great. Your thinking outside the box bud. 👍👍

Awesome Ed. Thanks.

Thanks Greg. 👍😊

Thanks for the comments I appreciate that buddy. 😊😊

@@bondobuilt386 anyway to contact you?

@@butopiatoo message me on Facebook bud.

Thanks uncle Jim. getting close buddy. 😊😊👍👍

Thanks Jay. 👍👊

Thanks Tom ya I could use some shirts and hats for sure. 👍

Long day... great looking outcome.

Ya you will not need air entrained concrete. 👍

Thanks Rod. 😊👍

@Tes Tickle thanks 👍 I agree.

@Tes Tickle thanks I agree

Thats true greg. Maybe that is why they did it. We like the laser 👍

I think you might be on to something. That just might work. It will save money too. 👍😊

@@bondobuilt386 Maybe so..Furrowing arches to prep grade for small scale test slab would fairly simple to do with a shovel. Bigger slabs would require a tool or attachment that furrows the arches, in one pass preferably. An exterior shop approach would be a great place to test an arch slab concept. I'd need to think more about wire or rebar placement. First thought would be to simply lay a wire mat perpendicular to the arch furrows. Furrows could also be a natural place to lay hydronic floor heat tubing.

They forget them sometimes. LOL Thanks 😊

Thanks 😊

Karl is always thirsty. LOL

LOL I tell him to slow down and dont get hurt. He makes me nervous sometimes

Thanks bud. 😊 We just cut about 1/2” down.

I love Kubota 👍👍

No problem on the questions. Air entraimed concrete is for outside. It is not good to machine finish it. it will separate while power troweling it. Just do light air in your pole barn. I dont like chairing the mats up because people can’t walk on it verry good. Ok if its a small pour though. also trucks cant drive on it.

@@bondobuilt386 i understand and thanks Ron ! prolly safer for me to pour my aprons separately on different days as i wont have a top crew like you do , im re-watching your vid from Aug 25 (big nudura wall pour) I think im going to do my house on a alaskan slab with 8' nudura walls all around, wanna do a A framed ranch. I wanna work with you on this, hoping i can contract you to do some with me on it. I'm in CNY , wanna do as much as im able tho on my own, just need a pro back up , thanks Ronnie

Dan I never had any problems with the apron except one time a customer wanted it doweled into the slab that made it crack.

Only if the slab is over 7" thick.

No we cut it the next day while it is still soft.

That’s a good question. Not sure if you’re into post frame (pole barn) construction but that’s how all these guys build them.

Actually, that skirt board can go ahead and rot. It’d be no harm to neither the slab nor the posts. Skirt board isn’t much more than a form for the concrete.

@@d.i.whynot484 I just did a quick net search and pole barn shirt decay appears to be a common problem.

This is one reason I don’t lkike pole barns that much. Not a fan of wood in or on the ground. I do pour a lot of floors in them though.

@@bondobuilt386 I agree Ron , but to build the pole barn on top of the slab will keep the rot minimized. prolly not called a pole barn anymore then, somehow you get around building codes i assume calling it a pole barn design

Crusherd stone with dust in it is a good base. Crushed gravel works too.

@@bondobuilt386 thank you. Now you didn't use it for this job, is it just a matter of budget? I just dont want to regret not putting it down later if cracking occurs.

@@carrerofun2185 The customer had this gravel in there. Stone is better but more money. either will work though. Compaction is important part.

No there is no snow left here. Glad though. Lol

Almost always 4000 lbs. I like a 5-1/2 to 6” slump.

Same here.

Ya that was a fail. LOL

Just my mini bobcat walk behind. We use Karl the Kubota and I have a Yanmar mini excavator.

Hi Lesley. We have been workikng 6 days a week and I do estimates on Sunday. I haven’t checked my email. We have so much work right around my house I cant do it all. Its beden crazy.
