Method 1:
Start at corners and under bucks, then fill in for first lift
of 2-4 feet. Continue around in lifts of 2-4 feet until
done
Method 2: Same, but do full
height in one long, slow lift

The method that I've
found that works best for me is, I start the pour near
a corner ( approx. 8' ) and bringing the
first lift to 4', I try to " roll" the concrete in the
wall from this point on for the first pass.
Subsequent lifts are at 2'. Depending on the angle of the
corners, I fill them by working both
sides at once. I try not to pour directly down
corners or T's. I find the "rolling
" of the concrete is easy
on the wall and reduces your inherent risks.
