Two machine sheds with 12" diameter poured columns and 12 " thick board embossed walls, a bridge rated to handle a loaded 10 wheeler, lots of retaining walls, the largest being a 16' 6" wall on top of a 2 foot thick by 8 foot wide footing at 90' long, more columns, 16" diameter at 12' tall and lots of poured stairs. Suppose to be an observatory at the end of the project that will blow that 500 yard number up substantially. Here's a shot of the end of one of the walls, look close at the end and you can see the year I poured it. That one was a 54 yard pour for just the wall. Me and 2 other guys. 4500 psi, slump of 4, vibrate everything. Lots and lots of steel. The guys at the plant call this the Concrete Fortress.
