Here are som pics of a project I worked on last year. A hydrpower project, so it all happened far far inside several kilometres of tunnels.
I had several of these jobs, big hatch walls and pipe foundations, about 1000m3 each with a small pumi, 2.5-3 inch hose and 2-3 loads pr hour.
You do the math... took some time.
Oh, and the pics are a bit big, since I use Photobucket.

BIG pics are OK for BIG jobs! Thanks PumpNOOb, Thats the first time I have seen a mixer pump acually pumping. please post more pics some time? Many others here are also interested in mixer pumps. There are none in the US. Nice truck too, looks like a truck I could be comfortable in since I am "TooTall" for Mack trucks! Ha... |
