Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete slab installation is a challenge if one doesn't have the right expertise. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors adheres to an exact concrete slab construction process that strictly follows local codes as well as industry standards.

 

Safety is our top priority when working on concrete projects. Prior to starting any project, we ensure that we are equipped with safety gear. We wear gloves with long sleeves, long pants and rubber boots. All these protections protect us from concrete splashes that can cause damage to our health overall and well-being.

 

The steps listed below are to be followed as part of the procedure.

 

Step 1: Preparation on the spot

The same method is used regardless of whether working on a small slab or large project. We always start by preparing the area for any projects we do. We clean up and eliminate any waste that is left so that it is possible for us to start over. In preparation, we ensure that all the materials are available on the site. We schedule the arrival of the material prior to the start of work. This allows us to begin and finish the project in time.

 

Step 2: Make Concrete Forms using Steel, and reinforce Concrete Slabs using Steel

After the area has been cleared and cleared, we'll begin the process of installing concrete forms made with wire mesh. Concrete forms act as a solid wall to keep the concrete mix in its place. Concrete forms also allow concrete mix to adopt a particular shape or design. Rebar is used to reinforce concrete structures that are larger. This helps concrete surfaces become stronger.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

To help us to make it easier, we employ a concrete truck. This ensures that concrete materials are correctly mixed. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. For most projects, however the use of a concrete mixer is likely to be needed.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

After mixing concrete we immediately pour a concrete slab into the molds. It's crucial that we make the concrete mix with care to avoid air pockets. Air pockets can be caused due to a lack of mortar being used in the spaces around the aggregate. Concrete is poured by making sure it is evenly distributed across the shape.
