I just retired as a cement mason after 45 yrs. I did alot of curb and gutter with the machine and sidewalk right behind the curbs. We would pour almost a mile of curb in these sub divisions tract homes. Couple days later we would pour the sidewalks, 100 cubic yards a day. Did it fir many years, we would never run shiners on the joints or edges. Differant finishes through out the USA

Why would you want to get into concrete work & the wire the one girl is trying to pull up is just being pushed down by the other steeping down on it. I think every time I'm seen people using the welded wire they end up just having it mostly laying on the bottom of the concrete, thus likely doing more harm than good. That is why I never use the wire I use re-bar. All the power to you if you want to do concrete work, it is rather satisfying but there is lot better ways to earn a living. But work done well is most always to be respected what ever the case. BTW I'm not a real concrete man I'm more an electrician than anything, but I've done a few slabs & odd & ends. I've had my girl (age 15) help me with all kinds of the work I do, she never seems to want to but when she is helping me she seems to do a rather good job & content enough doing it. I tell her she doesn't have to do any of that type of work but I do want her to know enough not to be taken advantage of. Well best to you. :)

I asked if I could have their bosses number and the guy said yeah I own the company what’s up? So I said I wanted to learn concrete but had no experience I offered to do it for a month at $10 a hour to see if they wanted me and I think the second week. He moved me to $14 and all I really did was wash tools and help with the pour. He offered me full time work at around $20 a hour but I couldn’t leave my full time job for seasonal work. Sometimes finding people doing small jobs and asking is the best way.

When I build forms for a sidewalk, especially a curved walk, I cut a few 1 X 4 boards to the width of the concrete to use as a gauge as I set the sides. Floating the edges before screeding is a heck of a tip. It'll save me some edging headaches. Thanks.

You dont pull your forms same day and trowel the outside of the area and continue the control joints through the outside face? Risky, you can end up with some decent bug holes, I poured it like you for a long time then started pulling my boards (when it's an above grade slab) and using an outside corner trowel. I stick a piece of rebar at the form board and slide it down to the bottom of the slab, remove it (this forces the aggregate out of the way) and continue my control joint on the vertical face of the slab with a v-groove trowel. It makes a difference on the appearance of the slab, even when I used a power screed I would notice a few small bug holes. Nice job on the slab. 👍

There was a girl pulling up the wire. It should be in the bottom third of the slab, so basically just pull it up enough to get a little bit of concrete under it. Most folks think reinforcement for slabs are to be in the middle of the slab which is incorrect. As a slab settles, the top 3rd of the slab will be Compressed together. The bottom 3rd of the slab will be pulling apart . Therefore reinforcement needs to be in the bottom 3rd of the slab to hold the bottom of the slab together. Imagine taking a 16' long wooden plank and setting it on cinder blocks at each end. If you were to step up on to the plank in the middle, the board bows under your weight. Wood grains on the bottom of the plank pull apart while wood grains on the top are pressed together. If the board was to snap, the board would snap from the bottom up with the top likely still holding together By several wood grains. Same is true with concrete slabs.

Nice job, great video! Thanks, if you care for a heads up? The bottom landing is not right because the step riser has lost equal elevation with tho other steps. It could be a trip hazard. Each step should have an equal rise unless there is a 36" landing for a transition in heights. The step could have been poured higher to match the next one up, or lower by digging it out to grade.
