Watched a 4 inch slump load turn into a 20 minute chase in Bakersfield last Friday
We were pouring a 40x60 slab off Rosedale and the first two trucks sat so long the mix stiffened up past what I like to finish, so I had the driver hit it with a half gallon of water per yard before it went down the chute. I added plasticizer on the last three loads and worked the screed fast instead of messing with a second pass, and we still got a decent burn on it by 4pm. Next time do you guys call the plant and make them swap trucks, or just deal with it and push through the pour?

Ugh, been there. Just push through, swapping trucks wastes more time.
