Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete slab installation is challenging when you don't have the right knowledge and skills. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors follow an exact concrete slab installation process that adheres to the local code and standards of industry.

 

Safety is a priority in all the concrete projects we work on. Before beginning any project, we ensure that we have the proper safety equipment. We put on gloves long sleeves with rubber boots, gloves and rubber to protect our eyes. They protect us from concrete splashes that could cause harm to our overall health and well-being.

 

For the procedure We strictly adhere to the following steps:

 

Step 1 - Preparation on the spot

We follow the exact process no matter what size concrete slab we're working on. Every project we work on starts by preparing the site. We clear up and dispose of any waste that is left in order to start again. As part of the preparation we make sure that everything is on site. We plan for the delivery of the materials prior to the time we start the actual work. This allows us start and finish the project in a timely manner.

 

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

When the area is clean and ready, we proceed by putting in concrete forms using wire mesh. Concrete forms act as a solid barrier to help hold the concrete mix in its place. Concrete mixes are forced to adopt a particular shape or design. Rebar is used to strengthen concrete structures that are larger. This makes concrete stronger.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

Concrete trucks simplify life. It also helps ensure concrete materials are mixed properly. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. In most cases, however we make use of an concrete mixer.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

Once done mixing concrete, we pour a concrete slab into the forms. Be careful when pouring the concrete mix in order to prevent creating air pockets. Air pockets are caused by lack of mortar filled with the aggregate. Concrete is produced by spreading the mix uniformly throughout the form.
