∙ 8y agoThe max it can be is 45 feet long, and that includes the Bridge Master arm at the back of the vehicle. You can expect the wheelbase of a "typical" Class 8 cement mixer to be around 20 - 24 feet without including the Bridge Master.

The weight of a concrete mixer truck can vary depending on the size of the truck and if the truck is weighted with concrete it may be carrying. A concrete mixer truck is about 20,000 to 30,000 pounds without concrete.
Urinate in it.
The concrete truck is approximately 9' wide and 10'-12' high. The height of the truck can vary due to the size of the tires on the vehicle.
What is likely to be an order of concrete carried by a truck to make a garage floor

The volume of concrete that a concrete truck hold is variable depending on the model of the vehicle. Older ones usually have 6 cubic meters however newer trucks have 8 cubic meter capacity. The volume of concrete a concrete truck hold is proportional to the weight the truck is carrying. In some localities where infrastructure like bridges and roads are not design to carry heavy loads will have to use small volume trucks.
concrete is measured by the yard, and a concrete truck filled to the top of spout will hold nine yards, so a full truck of concrete is the whole nine yards.
Concrete pumping trucks can be hired through concrete suppliers as well as large truck rental establishments in most major cities. The strength of the pumping truck may vary from truck to truck, so it is important to verify with the rental supplier just how strong of a pumping truck one requires, to ensure that the job can be completed successfully.
Normal weight concrete weighs about 4000 lb. per cubic yard. Lightweight concrete weighs about 3000 lb. per cubic yard. If a truck is carrying 10 cubic yards, then the weight of the concrete is approximately 40,000 lb. The truck will weigh approximately 26,000 lb. for a total of 66,000 lb.
In the delivery from the plant where the concrete is first mixed, the concrete needs to be lightly mixed until it arrives at the recipient's site. If the bowl on the back of the truck were not revolving, the concrete would settle out due to vibrations as the truck travelled the highways. It would need to be re-mixed before use. And if the truck stops because of some accident, the concrete has to be removed from the bowl, otherwise it will set in position.
Concrete now comes in cubic meters. There is 2.2 tons to each cubic meter of concrete plus whatever the size if the truck is. An 8 meter truck is about 32 tons full, 6 meter truck is about 26 tons full and a minni mix (4 meters) is about 22 tons full. This is just a rough guide. Regards Colin
It depends on how much the truck weighs, how much cement it is carrying and how many people there are in the truck
