HAD A SOLID WALL CONTRACTOR (RESIDENTAL) CALL LAST WEEK TO TALK ABOUT PUMPING HIS WALLS ON HOMES WITH BOOM. APARENTLY HE HAS RESERVATIONS ABOUT PUMPING A NEW MIX DESIGN IN THE NEAR FUTURE. I HAVENT SEEN IT YET OR KNOW MUSH ABOUT IT. I'VE PUMPED METAL FIBER BUT HAVE YET TO SEE SPIRIAL FIBER. THE MATERIAL IVE SEEN IS RIBED. ANY-ONE WORKED WITH THIS SPIRIAL YET? |

I am surprised nobody has posted anything for you but if this is new and nobody has pumped it than I would think it best to do ask them to do a test pour. I would hate to see you have 5 or 6 trucks sitting there and than find out it will not pump. |

It is totally new to me. If your customer wants the job to go off well he needs to schedule you and a yard of the material at the batch plant. That would be the place to have a surprize. ;~) |

I agree with bob but i suggest at least two yards so it will mix good ( have him dose it with retarder just in case ) after you prime let it sit 20 mins see how it reacts ( bleeding ). |
