Poured the footing yesterday morning, had one of my boys come and help for that. 24 yards, 4000 psi, ¾” stone, slump rate of 4.
In the 60's here today, felt like 75 in the sunny side where I was working. Still pouring concrete, two more pours this week. Should be over 500 yards by the time this job is done.
