New To The Site, Concrete Contractor In CT...


Hi Guys and Gals,

Name is Ned,

I'm in Connecticut and was born and raised here.

I'm going on my second year as a Concrete Contractor, but have been in the Concrete industry for 23 years. I hoping to share what I do know here and looking to learn some things that maybe I don't know.

Looks like a great site, and glad to be a part of it....

Truly, Ned Lessor

jmic,

Thanks for the welcome,

I use Simplex and Symons mostly, but will also use my own job built forms when called for.

I've also done some heavy concrete construction in the past when I worked for contractors....So I'm experienced with some gang form systems also....Just can't recall the mnft's names.....

I've also had the opportunity to use the Insulated styrafoam type forms....Just like playing with legos...
