Amazing Stamped Concrete Job Start to Finish...Design, footings, Cost?

[@charleskerbel2566]

Where's the rebar on the ground. Don't you need it through the base. ?

[@johnspoon923]

Was thinking the same thing? Guessing fiber in the concrete. I'm sure there is a logical explanation. I buried my downspouts under my concrete so not have tons of water running on to the surface. That large of a shop will produce a lot of water of the roof. He did say they were going to take it underground on that corner spout.

[@dirty3893]

I was in there, bricklayers apprenticeship. They sent me to school for six weeks to learn how to lay block. I got lucky and picked up an extra two weeks to learn how to do concrete. They taught us how to stamp and the colored concrete. It was an extra two weeks And bricklayers are paying for it so I thought hell yeah signed me up! The more you learn the more you can earn. I can’t wait to see the finishing touches on this.

[@mastinfowler8225]

I can’t believe they did not use wire or rebar during that pour!..

[@richardlwellington]

That’s cool. My guesstimate was about 30,000.00 for the whole job

[@mitchelld2845]

I paid 10k for 7 yards a couple months ago for my driveway I think you did good.

[@bullrun1]

must be different in NC - always thought big slabs needed compacted gravel base and rebar or mesh...love seeing your success, it is earned and well deserved.

[@kdegraa]

The lack of reinforcement is of concern but if it lasts then that’s all that matters. I have not helped with a concrete pour for 30 years. It might have all changed since then.

[@maxmaximus8323]

Wow! Concrete will be really awesome and I love the building.

[@bogofishmusic]

Great video, Josh! I appreciate all the hard work it took to make this quality video. The concrete looks nice. Looking forward to seeing the finished project!

[@terresiagregg9326]

Good evening Josh glad you are getting the concrete poured today cant wait to see the stamping of it

[@terresiagregg9326]

It looks really good i like that color

[@bishopkinlyside8477]

Hi Josh, wow I can’t believe you’re putting down so much concrete without any Rio in there. Maybe it’s just an American thing is here in Australia wouldn’t last too long doing that they tried to here in Australia to use microfibre’s in the concrete But it never worked Cliff from Logan city, Queensland Australia from the big island

[@yoyoswift9926]

I enjoyed seeing this process. Looking good and can't wait to see the finished project 😊

[@maddmaxx6730]

It’s looking real good Josh.

[@This1LifeWeLive]

Ugh, yes concrete and cement is so expensive! Excited to see how it turns out!

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

never heard of anyone pouring concrete they didn't need my friend.....I guess we could have made this a smaller pad...but in the long run, we will need it

[@This1LifeWeLive]

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer it's always a toss up. Either way you could you could wish you'd done it differently 😉. But regardless it will look very professional 😊

[@larryterrell8458]

Thanks for sharing the process and estimates.

[@davidwhitaker7412]

No rebar??

[@scottstewart3884]

Hmmm, I'm surprised at the lack of Rebar in that pad (other then those small chunks near the pillars) As well as not having bolts or supports pre placed in the pillars for the uprights.

[@saulpaxson4329]

Looks great , like that look better than plain old brushed look. Keep on it Stoney Ridge

[@dougdavis4439]

Can't wait to see the finished product, Josh. I bet it's going to look amazing! Wooooo!

[@MrGreenJeanz]

Hard Work paying off right there! Keep it up!

[@markbean8953]

Would have suggested a trench drain in the apron in front of your "garage" doors, Josh, especially since you aren't putting a roof/dormer covering the doors. Great job on electing to put in the "footer" along the edge of the apron. That will really help to prevent cracking along the edge of it! Be sure to really compact the road base up against the apron edge. When you plumb in your downspout drains, I would HIGHLY recommend using glued together schedule 40 pvc pipe for your drains. I once did a job similar to this (80' x 110') shop. The guy didn't see the need for the trench drain (presumably to cut costs), and "scrimped" on the downspout drain pipe electing to go with black corrugated drain pipe instead. Needless to say, five years later, he paid double the cost to re-do everything and do it the right way the second time. ("We do it right because we do it twice"). Just my $0.02, Brother, but its cheaper to do it right the first time! Best of luck! It's looking great so far!

[@jclikespam7791]

Beautiful work and great information! Thank you very much!

[@joesoutdoorexperience]

Good morning Josh, it’s going to look beautiful I like the idea of the natural look to match the farm

[@sumnerkinney2166]

Thanks for letting us know the cost. I am not a farmer but am interested in yours. I always am wondering about income and expenses. More info the better in my view.

[@tjjewell4115]

Josh, very nice walkway for the Mega Shop, good job.

[@geraldcampbell6834]

Look really good but I would think you would put the anchor bolt into the concrete piers for that deck while the concrete was wet, because if you were to drill them in later there would be a risk of them cracking?

[@gregoryshumate4000]

Correct

[@scottsmith6846]

Hey Josh thank you for the video I enjoyed it and the bag that he threw in the cement truck because he says it's biodegradable they should make shopping bags out of that material that way we don't have to worry about this problem with bags

[@ajrisu]

Yeah like bags made of paper….

[@damienfaust2108]

Hey Josh, my family and I are starting our own journey to build our own farm like yours!!! I've been a fan and follower of yours through many of my old profile's... We would like to come visit with you guys one of these days and learn first hand from one of the best... Much love from the McLaren family keep doing what you are doing...

[@BigTader]

That's going to look awesome when you get everything done. Did you have fiber put in the concrete?

[@destinywilliams801]

I remember those days, 88 rotations after the last bag goes in...

[@russellbaughnjr6457]

Great video Josh, enjoyed the details in the photography, great video work and editing. That will be a great outdoor space when you get it covered. The mega shop is really coming along. Good Job, WOOO!

[@dhansonranch]

Not cheap that's for sure, but it will look good once it is done. However, A friend of mine has it and it is somewhat slippery when it gets wet and dangerously slippery when it gets a skiff of snow on it (not that you get a lot of snow). Just something to watch for. Interesting video.

[@jakeschisler7525]

I have been watching Concrete with the Hausas for almost 2 years and they do a great job also. I thought you would have run the downspouts under the concrete with PVC pipes. I always like the stamped concrete but my favorite is wood planking but everyone is different.

[@bobpurs]

Looks awesome. 👍

[@ajlewis9454]

looking awesome josh

[@mikebarrett1721]

No rebar are you using fiberglass strand in your mix?

[@mxlman26]

My little boy doesnt speak english yet, but when he listens your outro song he says: "Whooooo!!!!!"

[@batpherlangkharkrang7976]

Hi..... Josh nice to see you love watching your videos homestead beautiful good job 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐣🐥🐕🐈🐄🐝🐠🐟🎣 🌱🏡🎥👍👍👍

[@BillsCountrysideAdventures]

Looks great josh ❤

[@cindyjohnson5242]

With all that water, you should consider water catchment for landscaping and drought

[@HeritageFarmsTexas]

That is one nice Mega shop!

[@toddpacheco4748]

Nice video Josh ❤👍

[@Umar-vc4io]

Great job there 👌

[@DV-ol7vt]

I think that’s a pretty good deal for concrete, especially now days.

[@merleewing1331]

Where is the rebar and/or mesh in your slab?

[@budblues]

Shouldve shown the finished stamped concrete!

[@ClickinChicken]

Dad and I didn't have enough cement color (tan) to mix in mixer. heheh, why does it have to be colored in middle? Just joshing. We sprinkled it on top and worked it in. Hey, better than grey! And I have my Daisy's foot print on it as a time sake. On that day though, I was hollering at her! So much fun even though, you're having it done!

[@bumblebug]

nice

[@tkskagen]

Still cheaper than Concrete Pavers (given the ground prep) and Asphalt!

[@Skay24]

5:15 Well great idea to throw it in concrete....

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Man thats a dirty job but i bet the finished product is gonna look great

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Oh man can’t wait to have ya here buddy

[@ncrpejxi]

Slope away from bldg 1” every 8 ft for proper drainage

[@tabranch3165]

🙋🏼‍♂️ 20 gallons 🤠

[@thomasyerbey337]

🇺🇸

[@justinmedlin1901]

Not doing all that on RN salary

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Don't work as an RN anymore, but keep up my license...you do understand that I create content for a living and farm now right?

[@angelamarie1218]

Says Start to Finish, but the finished product is yet to be seen?

[@jamesjessee4064]

❤️🙋‍♂️👍

[@kenhaslam]

Hi Josh you need to Watch ‘Concrete with the Hauses’ they do a far better job, sorry to say

[@Saviour3]

That's a proper shop building - never know when the extra room will be needed ... it's like a pistol, better to have it and never need it then to need it and not have it ... just sayin'

[@NBAmadara]

Lol the rebar a quarter inch from top of concrete is horrible and no it doesn't keep the corners from cracking

[@MrCrazycook8]

I drove a concrete truck for years. Now watching concrete being poured. They are doing a good job. Not too exciting to me

[@kdegraa]

Great seeing professionals doing what they are doing. They probably should wear a dust mask when working with the finishing powder.

[@ncrpejxi]

Stamping is a waste of money
