This is a pic a recently poured bridge cap....
2 bad guesses on the number of cyds needed + mud's too dry+1 hr travel time from the batch plant = hammer time
not enough concrete, must have been short on rebar 🙂
ps, dont caps usually go on top of piles, this one seems to be on the ground?
pss, fire the guy on the vibrator.
just saw your H*W*L/27, I always use (H*W*L/27)*1.05 with somewhere formed up to "use" the extra.
Pretty sure Kent would blame it on RTK 😉
Some whitehat is checkin out the classified adds.
Can't blame this one on the surveyor.............

the piling is driven and the fill placed- this is cap 1 bent 1- bents are the bridge ends that sit on the grade. Pier caps sit on columns.
our neat line calcs were 85 cyds, their 1st order was 75 cyds, then they ordered another 5 more, then they wanted to order another 5 but were told no- too late...
Some days it sucks, some days I'm glad it's not my turn.
My plans give the CY for each abutment, or whatever component. Wow, even if you think the plans are wrong, someone needs to be a little more nimble on the fly.

I didn't realize scale of your picture until i zoomed and saw that you have a 25 foot level rod across the face!! Its gonna be a major project to get that out of there!
