    What am I missing? Why not just empty the truck into lift and haul the concrete up? The truck weighs more that the concrete. They could meet the aggregates from segregating by having the hopper mix also.

    Note the drum rotation the vid looks reversed the truck is being lowered not raised that is because the road is at the top of the hill the construction site is at the bottom.

    Perhaps, but why move the whole truck up and down, and not just the concrete?

    Another reason is they only have to handle the concrete one time
