What are concrete slabs?

 

A concrete slab can be employed as a structural element for buildings. A concrete slab is an extremely thick, flat and horizontal concrete layer that is utilized as a floor or even as roofing. Concrete slabs that are laid directly on the ground or on foundations for support and are used to build the floor of some residential buildings.

 

 

Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete installation is not for those who aren't confident. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors use an exact concrete slab-installation procedure that is in line with codes and standards of the industry.

 

Safety is our top priority when we work on concrete construction projects. Before beginning any project, we ensure we are equipped with all the necessary safety equipment. We put on gloves long sleeves with rubber boots, gloves and rubber to shield our eyes. All these protect us from concrete splatters, which can harm our health and well-being.

 

As with the process we follow the following steps:

 

Step 1 - Onsite Preparation

We follow the same process regardless of whether it's a smaller concrete slab project or a larger one. Every project we work on starts with the preparation of the site. To begin fresh cleaning up, we eliminate any waste. In the course of our preparation process, we make sure all the materials are available. We plan for the arrival of the material prior to when we begin actual work. This lets us finish the project on schedule.

 

Step 2: Reinforce concrete slab with steel and build concrete forms.

After the area has been cleared and prepared, we'll begin the process of installing concrete forms constructed of wire mesh. Concrete forms are solid barriers that hold concrete mix in its place. Concrete forms force concrete to conform to a specific shape or form. Rebar is used for strengthening concrete for larger structures. This allows for stronger concrete surfaces.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

To help us for us, we utilize the concrete truck. Concrete materials are mixed more efficiently using the help of a concrete truck. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. Most of the time, however we employ an concrete mixer.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

After mixing concrete, we pour the concrete into the molds. To prevent air pockets, we cautiously apply the mix of concrete. The formation of air pockets results from there being insufficient mortar to fill the spaces surrounding the aggregate. When pouring concrete, it is important to ensure that we disperse the mix across the shape. We will never fail to fill a space.
