The blocks are hot from the sun, the water evaporates quite a bit, still a little too loose. Most mix it a lot thicker. they have premix down there now but everybody likes to mix it themselves. Dem Yardies can work der rasses all day in the HOT Sun.............NUFF RESPECT!!
My husband is from Jamaica. He Said they usually fill the blocks with concrete. So this house is till gonna be really strong. It will withstand a hurricane. we're perparing to start building a new home for his mother.
It's easier and cleaner to use spec mix guys. The entire Arabian coast and North America is now using this brand to mix mortar & grout, core fill applications,., etc
@@surpernichalas concrete* cement is known as a "cementitiois material" it reacts chemically when mixed with water(hydration) to form a rigid rocklike mass(paste or grout ), when mixed with aggregates (sand and gravel) it binds them together and become strong and rocklike(concrete) therefore cement is only one ingredient of concrete.
I don't know anything about concrete, I need to replace a small section of my driveway so I'm looking at videos. Would their concrete be weak because they put so much water in it?
