just another small thought. If you have sprinklers and you are going to run
wheelbarrows on the grass ,leave the sprinklers off for at least 2 days
before the day of concrete.
good luck and may the force be with you.

I'm looking to install a concrete walkway on the side of my house,
about 40 feet by 3 feet, plus a slab to hold a hot tub.


Due to the expense in hiring people to do cement work around here, I'd
like to try to do it myself with a few other people. Can anyone
recomment either a website or a book that I can refer to with a good
set of instructions (I've only done minor cement repair work in the
past)?


Thanks,

I'd also check local codes, as 3ft width may not meet code for a
walkway.
