What are concrete slabs?

 

A concrete slab makes up an important portion of building's structural components. A concrete slab is a thin, flat horizontal concrete surface which is used to construct the construction of a roof or floor. Concrete slabs are utilized to build the ground floor of some residential structures. Concrete slabs can be laid directly on the soil or used as a support for the foundation.

 

 

Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete slab installation is a challenge when one does not have the right expertise. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors follows strict construction of concrete slabs procedure that is strictly adhered to local codes as well as industry standards.

 

Safety is the paramount concern in all of our concrete projects. Before beginning any project, we ensure we are equipped with all the necessary safety equipment. Eye protection is a must, as are long sleeves, long pants, rubber boots and gloves. These protections shield us from concrete splatters that could harm our health overall and well-being.

 

Similar to previously, we now follow the following steps:

 

Step 1: Onsite preparation

We use the same procedure regardless of whether it's a tiny concrete slab project or a larger one. Every project begins with the preparation of the area. We clear up and dispose of all waste to make it possible for us to start over. In the course of our preparation process, we make sure everything is on site. We schedule the delivery of all materials ahead of actual work. This allows us to complete the work on time.

 

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

After the area has been cleared and prepared, we will move on to the installation of concrete forms constructed of wire mesh. Concrete forms are solid barriers that keep the concrete mix in place. It makes concrete form an solid block that keeps the concrete mix in place. To strengthen concrete using reinforced concrete, we mix it with rebar. This helps concrete surfaces become stronger.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

To help us for us, we utilize a concrete truck. This helps to ensure the concrete material is properly mixed. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. In most cases, however we make use of a concrete mixer.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

After mixing concrete, we pour a concrete slab into the molds. It is important to be careful when pouring the concrete mix to avoid creating too many air pockets. Air pockets are created when there is not enough mortar to fill in the spaces around the aggregate. When making concrete, we make sure that we evenly disperse the mix across the shape. We never miss a spot.
