Is it safe to extend the truck-mounted boom concrete pump by linking additional rubber and/or steel hoses for pumping concrete to higher levels than its capacity?
two things to consider. Will the weight of the concrete exceed the head capacity of the pump. Will the weight of the concrete be baring on the structure of the truck. If the hose rests on something other than the truck, you might get away with it. At the price of pumps, do you really want to chance it?
