Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete installation isn't for those who aren't confident. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors adhere to an exact concrete slab installation procedure that is in line with local codes and industry standards.

 

Safety is the top priority for any concrete project. Prior to beginning any work, we make sure that we're equipped with safety equipment. We have gloves, long sleeves, long pants and rubber boots. They protect us from concrete splashes that could cause harm to our overall health or well-being.

 

We follow the steps below as part of the procedure:

 

Step 1 - Preparation on the spot

Whatever small or huge the project may be no matter how big or small, we will use the same method for all projects. In all cases, we prepare the site. We clear up and dispose of all waste so that it is possible for us to begin again. As part the preparation process the materials should be on-site. We plan for the arrival of the material prior to when we begin the actual work. This allows us to begin and finish the project on-time.

 

Step 2: Make Concrete Forms using Steel, and Reinforce Concrete Slabs with Steel

After everything is clean and tidy We can begin installing concrete forms using wire mesh. Concrete forms are strong barriers that keep the concrete mix in place. Concrete forms force concrete to conform to a specific shape or design. Concrete reinforced with rebar can be used for bigger structures. This ensures the concrete surface is stronger.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

Concrete trucks simplify life. It also helps ensure concrete materials are properly mixed. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. But in most of our projects, a concrete mixer is required.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

Once the concrete is mixed, we immediately pour concrete into the form. It is important to be careful when pouring the concrete mix to avoid creating too many air pockets. Air pockets occur when there isn't enough mortar available to fill in the gaps around the aggregate. We make sure that the concrete mix is evenly distributed throughout the shape.
