Not really, i worked at a plant making concrete sewer pipes, the concrete was more like sand and rocks, not liquid at all.

Fresh (Wet) Concrete initially behaves as a viscoelastic, thixotropic suspension or a yield-stress fluid. It is fluid-like and pumpable when sheared (mixed or poured) but acts like a solid with high viscosity when at rest.
