I like how he tried to say the wet pour took more time but hes coming back to the dry pour every 30 minutes per inch to water it 🤣

I've been working with concrete for well over 25 years and I've seen more fences fail by people just putting the concrete dry in the hole adding water you mix it in a wheelbarrow or a blender and I guarantee you have a lot better set when that thing dries water will not penetrate all the way through and through you've got to mix it

when the bags get wet they turn into rocks right in your truck bed.

I did cuntcrete bags for years (I know what I said) I ran the block yard. Yes that will become rock hard the bags are resistant not waterproof. Also yes both ways work just different styles and for the liquid one you can add hardening agents to it. I did it in front of my Smith shop 😂 it's also rebar reinforced 😅

yeah but the time that you have to wait in between spraying the dry poor you could have already mixed up the concrete and made wet pour you're just being lazy by doing a dry poor I mean you're doing the same exact thing as a wet poor it's not really a dry poor when you soak it either way you're just adding water to the cement

I prefer to rent a cement mixer. more water, add more fly ash, small pebbles, and marbles to the sidewalk slabs.

The process of concrete curing is a chemical process that produces heat when activated with water. Once you apply water initially it starts then cures and hardens, by continuously repeating the "activation" phase weakens the mix. We have slump tests for a reason to measure if the concrete is mixed properly to withstand the weight demand they're about to apply. Do some homework people😁

less time setting up, but more time to cure

I know people that put culverts through their driveways so water can flow through the driveway and surround each end with bags of quikrete still in the bag they just stack it around and just from the morning do and rain moisture they sit up hard as a rock and if you stack them like bricks that's what they will become

Take one of those bags and place it underwater and leave it there.

It takes a long time for dry pour to saturate. Properly traditional poured is so much faster and you can use it quicker.

I think people misunderstand what he's trying to accomplish here he's learning you something while you're doing one thing is focusing on mixing that concrete here and focus at all just constantly moving to the next is the whole key

Yeah took you 19 min to do the wet poor but you don’t have to go back every 30 minutes to wet it all day so after all that water how much time did you really spend on that dry slab

How did it take 19 minutes to mix the concrete is what I want to know. It would take me probably two or three minutes.

I did dry pour on fence posts that I buried 2ft deep. It's a 6ft fence x 120ft long. Still standing strong after 14 years. No issues, no leaning, no loose posts no rot.

If it was a better process, everybody would be doing it. There won’t be no cement mixers there’s a reason.

the wet mix was about what, 30 minutes from start to finish? set it and forget it. the dry slab took longer, right? "every half hr for every inch of concrete. if that's a 2x4, it's 3 1/2 inches. 2 hrs from start to finish, right? I think the wet mix seems to be the quick and better way.

The wet pour turns out better every time, take it from someone who poured concrete

There's a reason professional concrete companies don't do dry pour slabs.

The center will never be concrete. The outside will get crusty the center will stay powder or close to powder. Lazy

use a vibration tool on the wet pour - it will remove air bubbles and make the cement stronger
