How To Screed Concrete for Beginners - Is This Too Fast or Too Slow!

#EverythingAboutConcrete #MikeDayConcrete #howtoscreedconcrete
We're talking a little speed screeding in this video about how to screed concrete. How fast is too fast and what is considered slow.
As I was editing this video, I timed how long it took us to screed this 36' x 24' garage concrete floor. The total time it took to screed was 7 minutes and 15 seconds.
The total yardage was 14 yards and the square footage was 864.
When we screed concrete, we don't intentionally try to hurry. The pace we used in the video is about the same pace we always use. The only time we may try to speed up is when we feel the concrete is "hot" and it's setting up faster than usual.
In the case of this garage floor, the actual screed time was about normal for most of the concrete guys I know in our area.
What do you think about how fast or how slow a concrete floor should be screeded at?
