Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete installations can be complicated if your skills and knowledge are not up to the job. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors utilize strict procedures for concrete slab installation that is in line with the industry's standards and codes.

 

In all of our concrete construction projects, safety is a first priority. Before starting any project we ensure we have all necessary safety equipment. We wear gloves and long sleeves, as well as long pants and rubber boots. All of these safeguard us from concrete splashes.

 

In the same way as before, we follow the steps below:

 

Step 1: Preparation for the Site

Whatever the size or big the project is, we adhere to the same procedure. We always begin by clearing the area for any projects we do. We remove all trace of contamination to allow us to begin from scratch. In the process of preparing it is essential that all the necessary materials are at the site. We plan the arrival of materials prior to the actual project. This allows us to begin and finish the project in time.

 

Step 2: Create Concrete Forms with Steel and Reinforce Concrete Slabs with Steel

After everything is tidy and clean After that, we can start to put in concrete forms with wire mesh. Concrete forms are solid barriers holding concrete mix in the right place. Concrete forms force concrete to take on a particular shape or design. To strengthen concrete, we use reinforced concrete using the help of rebar. This allows for more durable concrete surfaces.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

Concrete trucks make the process easier. Concrete materials can be mixed more effectively by using a concrete truck. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. Most of the time, however we employ the concrete mixer.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

After mixing concrete, we place a concrete slab on the forms. It's important that we do the concrete mix in a careful manner to avoid air pockets. Air pockets occur because there isn't enough mortar available to fill in the spaces around the aggregate. When pouring concrete, we ensure that we distribute the mix throughout the shape. We never fail to fill a space.
