What are concrete slabs?

 

A concrete slab is an extremely popular structural component of structures. It is a thick, flat, horizontal concrete surface typically used for the floor or roof. In addition concrete slabs are employed to construct the ground flooring of some homes to support the foundation, or directly on the ground.

 

 

Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete installation can be difficult when your experience and skills are not sufficient for the job. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors employ strict procedures for concrete slab installation that adheres to industry standards and codes.

 

Safety is a priority in all our concrete projects. We ensure that we've got all the necessary safety equipment before we begin any project. We wear gloves, long sleeves, rubber boots and gloves to protect our eyes. All of these help safeguard us from concrete splatters that can affect our health and well-being.

 

The steps listed below are to be performed as part of the process.

 

Step 1: Preparation on-site

We follow the same procedure regardless of whether working on a small slab or big project. In all cases, we make sure the site is prepared. We clean up all evidence of contamination so that we can start fresh. We ensure all materials are ready for use in the process of preparation. The transportation of materials is scheduled prior to the the actual work starts. This allows us to begin and finish the project in the quickest time.

 

Step 2 - Build concrete forms and reinforce concrete slabs using steel

After the area has been cleaned and ready for installation We use wire mesh to set concrete forms. Concrete forms are solid barriers which keep the concrete mix in the right place. Concrete mixes are forced to conform to a specific shape or design. Rebar is a method of strengthening concrete structures that are larger. This allows the concrete surface is more sturdy.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

A concrete truck is used to speed up the process. It ensures that concrete materials are mixed properly. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. However, most concrete mixers are required in order to complete projects.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

Once done mixing concrete, we immediately put a concrete slab in the molds. It is important to be careful when pouring this concrete so that there are not too many air pockets when pouring concrete. Air pockets occur because there isn't enough mortar available to fill in the gaps around the aggregate. Concrete is made by ensuring that the mortar is evenly distributed throughout the shape.
