The plain-words read of this example
Order 189.0 CY in 19 trucks, one every 10 minutes from 07:00; at 60 CY an hour the pour finishes about 10:09. Each truck is empty about 45 minutes after batching, inside the ASTM C94 90-minute limit. Cast 2 cylinder sets for strength tests. Check the plan against your project specification, which wins over these defaults.
