-Instruct the workers to stop the work and let them come back a day
after but construct a construction joint before leaving.
-Instruct your pouring guide to immediately set up a team to
dismantle the pipes of the concrete pump.
-Instruct the workers to scrape the poured green concrete away from
the depressed area as they move backwards to a stable area and
have the others provide additional shoring so that you may
continue with the pouring activity.
-Skip the said area and continue with the pouring since you need to
empty the contents of the Agitator truck ASAP to avoid concrete
wastage, but have the Safety engineers provide adequate shoring
and enclosed the depressed area with railings as a safety precaution.
