It takes about 5 bucket loads (1 bag of 47lbs Portland Cement with Sand and gravel mix at about 5-1) to do a section.
The first 4 loads are pretty dry... way drier than you would get from a cement truck pour for these slabs. We use the vibrator and hoes to spread and cover the reinforcing mesh and bring the level up to about an inch below the final level.
Then I get a bucket full of finer sand taken from the river bottom I obtain using the Green Dump Trailer and Tractor and make that mix wetter. 105-110 degrees quickly sets up the concrete and is sucked up by the dry pours beneath within 10-15 minutes of working the final finish. From final pour to Bull Floating to final troweling is as little as 15-20 minutes. So having a 3rd person (Matt) takes a lot of the scariness out of the process. Matt is a long time follower and asked to come out and help for a day,... Much Coolness :)
Matt sees what we all do and is at a stage in his life wanting to chart out the rest of his life in light of what is coming and is exploring his options for here in the USA or any where else on the planet. Thanks for the help Matt!
A full tour of the property and all of the projects that keep us totally occupied demonstrated the overlapping convergence of effort towards a vision of Occupying The Land with ATTAINABLE HOUSING.
