Laffin', I was trying to sound like a project manager. Most of them can't grasp the concept that equipment is usually cheaper than labor.

350 yards would do about 1 mile of 5' sidewalk, which is indeed of chitload of flatwork.

Yeah, if you gots a virus program running. Maybe.

There be some crafty programs out there. Most recent foray involved one what climbed about and deleted my virus program...first.

350 yards is a good day's work. IMO. Foundations are probably more fun than sidewalks.

350 cuyd at 2:00 AM sounds like about a 26,000 sqft interior slab pour. End dump the truck and then get the Somero going?

Was the 950 cuyd pour a big warehouse slab? Then you get into 'super-flat', that's always fun. grin

I'm purty much an expert at everything, just ask.
Which means...you can fit all I know about concrete in a child's toy wheelbarrow. I do know it's heavy and a good finisher seems like an arteest.

The 950 was a post tension deck at a Hotel/Casino. (Actually had 5 pours that size)

Today's pour was concrete paving

No [bleep] on the warehouse floors. Did one Wal-Mart distribution center and hope like hell to never do another.
