I'm looking at having a 20 x 60 metal building built for car storage and working on them. The logistics of getting it built is the tricky part. I'm over 1/2 mile from the road and the concrete truck guys don't want to drive down the driveway

So I need to find out if they can pump it in and if so how far for the slab.

I have too. I live in northern California where it gets colder in the winter. Gets down to freezing at night sometimes.

They should be able to pump, but typically they can't pump further than 300 yards, so you have to daisy chain multiple pumps. First pump, pumps into the hopper of the next one which pumps to the hopper of the next and so on. You'll probably need 5 to 6 pumps for that 1/2 mile.

Failed again. Bought the wrong adapter. I bought sma male to smb female and apparently I needed a sma male to smb male which doesn't make sense but that's that.

Ok its ordered. At this rate I could of just bought another cable with the right ends for what Im going to have in adapters.
