what was the reasoning for the 2 pumps, in this first pic it looks as though you could get RM trucks to the pump?

You can't see it but the green 42M is sitting on a hill. This is the only place the pump could reach the pour. we still had to put on 2  10ft hoses to reach one corner.

looks like you could have just backed the trucks straight to the second pump. so what was the reason for doing the pour like that jt?

I see another pump over by the dumpster. Did they order a spare? Three pumps for a hill? Nice ticket!

It looks as if only one truck could back up to the second pump; thus slowing down the pour.

guessing

I am a hawk eye for pumps! I see a blue boom over by the trailers/dumpster/mixer? I have been wrong before.

We could get 2 RM trucks backed up to the blue 32M. We couldnt get any pumps backed up to the green 42M, the hopper was about 10 ft off the ground. The contractor wanted a 61M from dallas, but then he realized he could get our pumps for 3/4 the price

you could off come of the back end the 32m with a couple of steels ,by doing that the 32m would have sucked a ball back through the 42m ,you get alot of air lock doing it your way, With 32m boom two section up and two down there is a great deal of free fall on to the 42m unless your pumping flat out
