- Today we meet PJ Audits at a building site where a Concrete Pump is in action.
There was a little delay due to the cold weather which caused a couple of blockages within the CEMEX Lorry on site, but the expert knowledge of CemPump resulted in the job being completed on time for the customer.
It was a pleasure spending time on site with the lads and I fully recommend their services to anyone in these areas -
• East and West Midlands
• Yorkshire
• London and Surrounding Areas
CemPump Website is cempump.co.uk/
CemPump Phone Number is 01332 410021
I hope you enjoy watching how its done as much as we did!

The difference between these really helpful, knowledgeable and friendly tradesmen, compared to the average security guards throwing their (ample) weight about is huge. Great to see and really interesting DJ. Nice one mate.
Met Mat (orange Gear Navy wooly hat) in person under some weird circumstances for us both back in 2016 December. He's a cool guy. Told me alot about his business, nice to see him in action.
Great engagement from this company and crew, brilliant to see!
what a great interaction, and the company seems to be very forward thinking , and have a great friendly team , well done that crew
These pumps are a Godsend, I've probably hand balled thousands of tonnes of concrete and it isn't fun, lovely guys and i wish them all the best!
Me too when I worked for a concrete garage company, I remember having to barrow for the concrete bases if the wagon couldn't get down the driveways, some of the drivers were never happy having to wait around to fill the barrows
Cem Pump - what a cracking bunch of lads.
what a great guy man so nice
So are you Wheelz, keep up the great work mate 👍
I do try loved your cemmet one today would love to do one with tou some day
Great video. Thankyou ground worker guys for sharing your work with everyone.
you got great access there. well done to you and the companies
Thanks, that's genuinely fascinating. I had no idea they were so heavy, that's up to tank weights.
WOW how interesting and what great young men total asset to there company great to see pride in there Job well done.
It's lovely to see and hear Professionals at work with the right attitude, they're ALL a credit to their companies!
Nice one guys ;-)
Here in the US. The concrete plants in the states were the temperature drops lower (not often here in Florida where I’m at)
Use heated water. But depending on where this concrete’s be in use if the temperature drops below 40° they cannot place the concrete. Department of transportation across the country have strict guidelines for placing concrete in cold weather and hot weather.
The waterline on that concrete truck froze. When they first started discharging the concrete into the hopper of the pump, I believe the pump operator wanted more water added to raise the slump. Usually in pump operations the wetter (higher slump) the better.
Generally, 10 gallons of water will raise a slump 1 inch. Like the restrictions on temperature there are also restrictions on the slump range. Too much water in your concrete mix will lower the PSI of the concrete.
Great video. I work in the construction transportation industry in Florida, for road and bridge construction. I’ve been to Germany a few times and watched the same type of operation very interesting indeed. And this particular company “Cemex” is a huge building materials supplier and worldwide company. And they actually purchased the company I used to work for here in Florida. Based out of Mexico.
Keep up the good work!!
These guys are proper humans
Haha. I would pay to do that for a day. Great job fellas!
great video between you and PJ you have the whole process covered you make a good team . Workers are 100% wanted to talk about there job thanks for sharing
Great Audit , nice to a company Who are open to being filmed , shows they have nothing to hide ,not like some of the places PJ goes to , well done to the concrete team and the driver , great bunch of guys
Very interesting BOB the builder and his gang at work Well Done! ----
Love how you respect pj but my god your up there dj audits
What a lovely POSITIVE TEAM working on site makes such a change to see this isn't it NICE to be NICE to people don't cost nout!! --------- Great Vid as always!!!
Brilliant 👏
great bunch of helpful workers!! +good shot of PJs dreads !!!
Very interesting and what a great set of guys, they are all a credit to their companies how professional they were :)
The pump looks like the back of a mk3 escort. 😂😂
Great video & very interesting also two of my favourite auditors👍
Thanks Alan. Your very kind ❤️
Very interesting info thanks
Tut tut, watering it down more than once (it'll pump easier but it weakens the final set). Dry lumps of cement at the start of the load showed bad concrete supplied. Temperature too low is misleading, as if it was freezing it would destroy the concrete as it sets. Although pour at 1 degree a bit risky anyway.
I used to do this as a job a few years back except my wagon was a volumetric which made the concrete on site
I enjoyed that, great to see such a friendly engagement with these guys. Big up to Cemex!
Good lads these workers.
Thank you for that informative videos, thanks the guys being nice and professional, I get a bit tired of the security guard nob heds, this is nice to watch .
Just subbed to PJ legend. What a lovely bunch of people. In Norfolk its still wheelbarrow 😂😂😂
Thanks John. PJ will appreciate that.
Brilliant video chaps.
I work on concrete pumps here in Ireland and if the temperature is going to get near freezing I clear all my hose and make sure no water left in them and I cover the water pump Wit some old coat's so any little water left inside can't freeze
What a good bunch of lads need more like them Pete in Nottingham
Bang on this exactly the information I needed as may be using the future 👍👍
Nice one Ste 👍
@@DJAUDITS also company is only down the road from me didn't know it existed couldn't get any better ! ...... Don't forget to invoice company for advertisement 😜
@@stesrad Mention DJ Audits when you contact them. I’d love them to know where you found them 👍
Also,them wheels that are lifted up is known as a lazy axle !
When I was doing this over 30 years ago we used something called a barrow
pump is the way forward
With the insurance n what not, I'm surprised they let you on site.
We complied with all H&S PPE requirements and had a little induction 👍
That is some fkn slab their poring there yet the retaining walls look ordinary
Just how things should be. A superb interaction from all of those involved and an excellent advertisement for the company’s involved!!! However from an insurance/ H&S point of view, there may well be an issue. Surprised to see them letting you get so close to the works. Presumably their insurance will cover their own guys, but not you, should anything happen. The fact that they let you film etc, could be a grey area. I would suggest that perhaps your own insurance might be an idea if you intend making similar vids in the future. Just some (I hope) friendly pointers.
Jesus mate it’s only a video
@@clivotvh9503 Health & Safety on steroids... The term gets used on everything its ridiculous that it creates so much red tape that we'll be at the point where we cant take a shit in peace, in case the fumes kills you. So they'll install extraction pipes right next to your ass hole 'for your safety' 🤣
@@MrJamezGamez lol you’ll have to wear a certain type of shoe lace soon too!
I was just going to say i didnt see him put on his high vis shoe laces
Hey what's the wealdstone raider doing onsite. Maybe just saying about the lack of fans 😄
He certainly has fans nowdays 🤣🤣
And not an ssia trained security specialist in sight 😂😂
its actually the water in the concrete lorries pipes thats frozen not the concrete.. Concrete is hot when setting. When they turn up to a pumping machine they have to add water to the concrete so it flows.
Thanks Buddy, that makes sense 👍
You could lose a few security guards in there, I hope you kept your eye on PJ 😉
£500 per half day these bad boys
The knowledge, equipment and less hassle of doing it yourself is well worth the cost in my opinion 👌
I'm supprised they let you on site, just because of the insurance issues.
Maybe DJ has Auditor insurance :)
We had all PPE on to comply with H&S for insurance 👍
@@DJAUDITS I was going to ask did you have a hard helmet, then i though better of it :-) :-)
UK concrete pumping videos are very rare in TH-cam, so I'm sure my question will be inappropriate to ask. But as an aspired individual looking to becoming a concrete pump operator (no experience, will be starting from scratch). Can I know much we can earn?
Fantastic interaction from all concerned, I have a question, does the additional water added to the "Recipe mix" weaken or compromise the product?
Yes it can, Cemex have cube Technicians that go to random jobs to sample the concrete. They can't take samples from concrete that has had additional water put in it post batching at the plant. The cubes get crush tested and have to hit certain measurements for the grand of concrete being supplied. If not then it's an expensive job to rip out the concrete. The additional water should be logged on the drivers device/ticket as a customer request. That way the liability is on the customer and not Cemex.
Why wasn't the concrete being vibrated?
it's great seeing these sort of videos and I enjoyed watching how you and Pete showed this. Great bunch of guys allowing you to do this but this could go two ways. 1. promotes how curtious the workers are or 2. These guys could get a roasting from each of their companies. I am really surprised at Pete putting these guys in the firing line knowing so much about training, health and safety and 'Insurance'. Yes, you are responsible for your own safety as Pete would say but under health and safety an insurance company would rap the knuckles of any company if you were to get injured on site as there is no way of getting round accident books. There is no two ways about it, think of the guys jobs you are putting at risk in them being kind to you both, again I'm surprised at Pete doing this.
Who cares. The The Auditors mean no harm and no loss. Health & Safety is getting ridiculous these days. We're all adults and can look out for ourselves. Don't eat yellow snow etc.
@@MrJamezGamez Did I say they meant any harm? Yes, they are responsible for their own safety but at same time we are all responsible in life for what could happen under health and safety and the implications to others. Building sites, jumping on trucks etc doesn't work like that, it's who spots those actions on the good workers allowing this breach. Pete will understand that more than the others because he would have trained people on health and safety as a trainer. it was not a dig on having freedom to do what you like, it was advice on putting good people at risk by your own actions.
The bits turning are a paddle or arguer..
I'm surprised they let you on site because of insurance issues.
We covered that 👍
Insurance, the world's biggest legal scam.
I've gone over it 3 times but can't understand what the driver says 4min 40 in, what kind of oil did he say they use to repel the concrete? His accent is a bit strong for me.
All I heard was Mould Oil mate.
I’m thinking these guys need to join the Police training department !
They’re not trying to increase the temperature of the concrete in the drum the ground lads want it wetter and the mixer drivers water system is frozen so he can’t put water in the concrete like he normally would so the pump driver used his hose to spray it in the drum to wet the concrete 👍🏻
Good place to hide a body. Great interaction.
When they lay the rebarthey put the lower sheets in first and wire or crimp (depending on spec) together to form the base layer, this is stood on concrete blocks so it is totally covered and encased in concrete and off the floor, they put another layer over it and stand it on plastic uprights OR wire rebar unrights in and sit the upper layer onto them. When concrete is poured it adheres to the spacing blocks underneath and forms a solid slab under the rebar.
Pete, bare legs and concrete a no go mate under health and safety, show your experience my friend. I enjoy all your stuff both of you but remember people being kind to you both can backfire on them.
Only thing is, that if you put water in concrete it weekends it. It's no good to put water in concrete!
👀🏴🚓🚔📷📸📹🎥📽
Jesus Christ. Mould oil sprayed directly onto the lorry. Serious safety hazard if that drips onto the road whilst driving.
Also a naughty adding additional water to the mix post plant batching. I hope that was logged onto the drivers device.
Tut tut... walking under the hydraulic leg of the cempump was a big no no... for someone who advocates H&S so much
so the dready bloke hasnt been a concrete driver then ????
I’m not sure, I didn’t ask him
11:50 he went under the leg of the vehicle lift ! never do that ! if that would have collapsed at that time he would be dead or severely injured (i know the odds are small) but never do that ! the same as,you wouldn't get under a car for a repair for an exhaust just with a jack ! axle stands and the jack ! the same if you are inspecting a running engine with the bonnet/hood open,stay either side of the font wings to do it,because you never know what can happen,i know all this because my Dad was a Volvo mechanic for 40+ years !
No gloves . No eye protection. No hard hats. This is a safety standard in uk . So lads read the rules . So many accidents on sites due to no PPE . The lads doing great job but their employers have a duty of care
So there he is again with you 'Dug the bounty eater' ......you scared to audit on your own now?
We filmed quite a lot of places on that day. I have met PJ twice now and will do in the future but not too much.
Come to Australia we will show you how its done ...
Adding water just means the concrete is out of water cement ratio .
Also they add the slurry to prime the pump line .
Cold weather has never affected us in Australia and we pour in 5 degree mornings .
adding more water is a no no... they must do a slump test before use as more water will make the cement weaker... when it leaves the plant it will have been mixed to a certain slump tolerance for the use in hand ....according to architects design...
So pleased I’m out of this game. Made our money and I’m retired at 47! MCP atherstone. Warwickshire. Now a full carp angler lol😂😂
