The Tuesday pour at the Oak Street job went sideways 20 minutes in and I'm glad it did
We had a 42 yard pour scheduled for 6am on a hospital sidewalk job in Fort Wayne and the pump truck showed up 90 minutes late. By the time we started, the first three trucks were already getting stiff on us and I had two guys on floats who had never worked a pour that big. We ended up shorting the last control joint by about 3 inches and had to fix it with a hand float right as the sun hit us. Looking back, that late start forced us to talk through the joint layout out loud before we touched anything, and it caught two mistakes in the forming plan. What's the worst pour timing you've had to work around, and did it end up helping you or just hurting?
