What are concrete slabs?

 

Concrete slabs are a very popular structural element in buildings. A concrete slab is a thin, flat, horizontal concrete surface that's used for flooring or roofing. Concrete slabs are utilized in certain residential buildings to support the foundation, or directly on the earth.

 

 

Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete installation is not for those with weak hearts. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors follows the strict procedure for installing concrete slabs.

 

Safety is a top priority for all concrete projects. Prior to beginning any project, we ensure that we're equipped with safety equipment. Eye protection is a must, as are long sleeves, long pants, rubber boots, and gloves. These all help to keep us safe from concrete splashes which can affect our health and well-being.

 

For the procedure we follow the following steps:

 

Step 1: Preparation for the Site

We always follow the same method, no matter what size project it is. We always begin by clearing the site for all the tasks we carry out. We clean up and eliminate all garbage to make it possible for us to begin again. In the process of preparing the materials should be at the site. The delivery of materials is scheduled prior to the actually work can begin. This lets us finish the project within the timeframe.

 

Step 2: Build concrete forms and strengthen concrete slabs with steel

Once the site is cleared and prepared, we'll begin the process of installing concrete forms made with wire mesh. Concrete forms are solid barriers that hold concrete mix in the right place. Concrete forms also force concrete mix to take on a specific shape or style. Concrete reinforced by rebar is available for larger structures. This helps ensure stronger concrete surfaces.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

Concrete trucks make things much simpler. This helps to ensure the concrete material is properly mixed. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. But, the majority of concrete mixers are required for projects.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

Once we are done mixing concrete and forming the slab, the concrete is poured into the forms. To ensure that there are no air pockets, we cautiously pour the mix of concrete. Air pockets can be caused by a lack of mortar in the gaps around the aggregate. When pouring concrete, it is essential that we distribute the mix evenly across the form, never leaving one spot.
