Cool! Where are you located in Norway? I'm in Bergen. Who do you drive for? Nice job with the dam. We had a simular job here 2 years ago. But that concrete on your picture looks realy black!

I am actualy from Holland but moved to Norway 5 years ago to be with my Norwegian wife. We now have 1 kid and the second is expected in 3 weeks  !!!!!!!!  I used to drive pumps in holland before I moved to Norway..

Just a tip to help you here.. Be carefull whith what you post on this site. NO pictires with ANY steel on the endhose. So no svanehals or flens or whatever.  You will not get nice reactions since it is actualy forbidden to use steel on the endhose while pooring with hanging boom. If you poor inside with hoses it is ofcourse ok... And NO pictures of outriggers without plates under them.. Even if you stand on solide rock they will slaughter you for not using dunnage.

For the rest have funn!! There is a lot to learn on this site Wink

Are you seeing somewhere out rigger with no plate under? And as for the steel on the endhose i know it is not allowed but it is a battle with everyone too change this.. The customers in some cases will not accept anything else specially in walls
