Tell me what you see here?

I watched this a few times and was stunned at the quality of work here. Do you see the rebar being tossed around like toothpicks? Rebar NOT tied, not put on blocks.
Look at the curb work ZERO rebar until he shoves some in. No rebar box formed or tied.

How do people get away with this?

Is it me?

I don’t know why you’d bought using rebar without putting it on chairs. I didn’t know people still used those end dump trucks either. The concrete in the floor was too wet to.

- Looked pretty watery compared to the stuff we put in over the last month.
- Did they compact that stone and sand?
- Would that rebar do anything laying on the bottom like that?
- Did anyone notice when they were pouring that 8-10" wide thingy later in the video the guy moving the concrete around with his gloved hand? It looked like gray water.
- Also, call the police on the little kids playing in the sand. There's not supposed to be any fun on concrete jobs.

The latter would be dependent on the former...

I hate to think what the slumps was on the concrete, way to wet, and yes the rebar was a waste of money.

Let's just agree he got the quality of job he paid for. This is right up there with the bimbo (can I say that?) home renovation projects you see on the Home & Garden T.V. shows.

Not enough information really...the cement to water ratio is a factor...to me the mix looked not much wetter than what would be used in a pumping situation...
Basically being indoors is also another factor where the evaporation level would be limited...

OT for the finishers...

You ever see that joke youtube clip about the guy poring a slab right over the grass.....weeds and all. Was pretty funny.

The dirt is so rocky here you could probably get by with that.
