What is concrete slabs?

 

Concrete slabs make up the majority of structural elements in buildings. A concrete slab is a thick, flat and horizontal concrete layer that is used as a floor, or even as roofing. Concrete slabs are utilized for building the ground flooring in some homes. Concrete slabs can be laid directly on the soil or to support the foundation.

 

 

Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete slabs are not for those with weak hearts. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors utilize a strict concrete slab-installation process that adheres to industry standards and codes.

 

Safety is an important factor in all the concrete projects we work on. We make sure that we've got all necessary safety equipment prior to we begin any project. Eye protection is a must, as are long sleeves, long trousers rubber boots and gloves. These all help to safeguard us from concrete splashes that could affect our health and overall well-being.

 

We follow these steps as well.

 

Step 1: Preparation for the site

We follow the same process, whether it's a small concrete slab or a larger one. We always begin by clearing the site for all the projects we undertake. To get started clean up any debris and clean up the site. As part of the preparation process, we make sure everything is on site. We schedule the arrival of the materials prior to the actual work. This gives us the opportunity to start and complete the project on-time.

 

Step 2: Build Concrete Forms and reinforce Concrete Slabs with Steel

Once the site is cleared and cleared, we'll proceed to the installation of concrete forms that are made of wire mesh. Concrete forms act as a solid blockage to help hold the concrete mix in place. Concrete forms make concrete mix take on a specific shape or design. To strengthen concrete using reinforced concrete, we mix it with rebar. This allows for stronger concrete surfaces.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

Concrete trucks are used to help us with our work. Concrete materials are mixed more efficiently with an concrete truck. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. Concrete mixers are required in the majority of projects.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

After we have finished mixing concrete, we then put the concrete slab in our molds. It's important that we do the concrete mix with care to avoid air pockets. The presence of air pockets is due to not enough mortar filling the spaces surrounding the aggregate. When pouring concrete, we ensure that we evenly spread the mix over the shape. We do not leave a gap.
