What are Concrete Slabs?

 

A concrete slab is an extremely sought-after structural element used in building construction. It is a thick flat, horizontal concrete surface usually used as the floor or roof. More so concrete slabs are employed to construct the ground floor of some residential buildings as a support for the foundation or directly on the ground.

 

 

Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete installations can be difficult if you don't have the experience and skills for them. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors employs an exact concrete slab construction process that strictly follows local codes as well as industry standards.

 

In all our concrete projects, safety is a paramount concern. Before we start any project, we make sure that we're properly equipped with safety equipment. We put on gloves, long sleeves with rubber boots, gloves and rubber to protect our eyes. These safeguard us from concrete splashes that can affect our health and well-being.

 

Follow these steps in addition.

 

Step 1: Prepare on-site

We all follow the same procedure regardless of how big a project you are working on. Each project starts by preparing the site. We clear away all traces of contamination to allow us to start fresh. As part of our pre-planning, we ensure that all the necessary materials are on the site. We schedule delivery of items prior to actual work. This enables us to start and finish the project on time.

 

Step 2 Re-inforce concrete slabs using steel and build concrete forms

After the site is cleaned and prepared, we begin with the construction of concrete forms by using wire mesh. Concrete forms are strong barriers holding concrete mix in the right place. They create a solid barrier that holds the concrete mix. To strengthen concrete using reinforced concrete, we mix it with the help of rebar. This makes concrete stronger surfaces.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

Concrete trucks make the process easier. This ensures the concrete material is mixed. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. A concrete mixer is required in the majority of projects.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

Once the concrete is mixed, we put a concrete slab into the forms. It is important to be careful when pouring the concrete mix to avoid creating too many air pockets. Air pockets occur because there isn't enough mortar to fill in the spaces around the aggregate. We ensure that the concrete mix is evenly distributed throughout the form.
