#21


My work day consisted of testing and sampling concrete at the City Scape apartments, and at the Longhorn Stake House. I started my first job at 7:00 at Longhorn Stake House. The concrete poor was for the footings that I approved the other day. I only had to take four samples because they were poring under 50 yards. I also had to check the temperature of the concrete, and verify the slump. After I cast the samples I left them in an ice chest on site o be picked up tomorrow.

My next poor was scheduled for 10:00 am at the City Scape apartments in downtown Phoenix. The poor for City Scape was a lot larger than the Longhorn job. The City Scape was poring 200 yards. I had to cast 16 samples. I took a sample every 5th truck, but the it was not that bad because only 2 two yards were craned up at a time. I had a 40 minute break in between each sample, so I got to relax and enjoy the beautiful down town scenery.
