Maybe Friday or Saturday?

I'm thinking Saturday, less traffic for a large amount of concrete.

Yes! That's unreal, but makes sense. The reaction would be too hot and damage the concrete during curing.

Crazy the logistics required to get this right!

You were spot on the pour timing. How many concrete pumps do you think they'll have running?

I'm thinking 2 pumps running for 8 to 10 hours.
The Mordern by Amacon level 2 slab (thick slab) a smaller pour took most of the day with 2 pumps. ( https://youtu.be/0dVDTu01i5Y Concrete Pour Second Floor Timelapse - Modern by Amacon )

Core Footing - Finish Product

Attempting to capture this first sub-level slab then every subsequent sub-level slab (thinking intervals of 2 to 3 weeks?)
