What are concrete slabs?

Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete installation can be difficult when you don't have the required knowledge and expertise. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors adhere to an exact concrete slab installation process that adheres to local codes and industry standards.

 

Safety is the top priority when we work on concrete construction projects. Before we begin any project, we make sure that we're outfitted with safety gear. We use gloves long sleeves, rubber boots and gloves to protect our eyes. All of these safeguard us from concrete splashes, which can harm our health and well-being.

 

In the same way as previously, we now follow the steps below:

 

Step 1: Preparation for the Site

Whatever small or huge the project may be, we follow the same process. All projects start with preparing the site. We clear away all traces of contamination so that we can start fresh. As part of the preparation process, we make sure all the materials are available. The transportation of materials is scheduled before actually work can begin. This lets us begin and complete the work in a timely manner.

 

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

After the site is cleaned and prepared, we begin by putting in concrete forms using wire mesh. Concrete forms are solid barriers which help to hold the concrete mix in place. Concrete forms force wet concrete to conform to a specific shape or form. Rebar is used to reinforce concrete in larger structures. This makes concrete stronger surfaces.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

To make it easier for us, we utilize the concrete truck. It ensures that concrete materials are properly mixed. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. Most of the time, however, we use an concrete mixer.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

After mixing the concrete, we pour concrete into the molds. It's crucial that we make the concrete mix in a careful manner to avoid air pockets. The formation of air pockets result from not enough mortar filling the spaces around the aggregate. When pouring concrete, we ensure that we distribute the mix evenly across the form, never leaving one spot.
