What are concrete slabs?

 

A concrete slab makes up a large part of the building's structural components. It is a thick flat horizontal concrete slab which is used to construct a floor and roof. Concrete slabs are used for building the ground flooring in some homes. They can be positioned directly on the soil or used as a support for the foundation.

 

 

Our Concrete Slab Installation Process

 

Concrete installation can be challenging if one doesn't have the right expertise. Port St. Lucie Concrete Contractors follows an exact concrete slab construction procedure that is strictly adhered to local codes as well as industry standards.

 

Safety is the top priority for any concrete project. We make sure that we have all the necessary safety equipment before we begin any project. Eye protection, long sleeves or long pants, rubber boots or gloves, are all essential. All of these safeguard us from concrete splashes, that could affect our overall health and well-being.

 

Following the same process as previously, we now follow the steps below:

 

Step 1: Preparation at the site

We always follow the same method, no matter what size project you are working on. For all projects, we prepare the site. We clean up and get rid of garbage so we can begin on a clean slate. We ensure that all the necessary materials are readily available in preparation. We plan the arrival of materials prior to the actual project. This lets us finish the project within the timeframe.

 

Step 2: Form Concrete Forms using Steel and reinforce Concrete Slabs using Steel

Once the site is cleared and prepared, we will move on to the installation of concrete forms that are made of wire mesh. Concrete forms are sturdy barriers that help hold concrete mix in the right place. Concrete forms can also force concrete mix to adopt a particular shape or style. In the case of larger structures, we use rebar to reinforce concrete. This makes concrete surfaces stronger.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

Concrete trucks are used to make life easier. Concrete materials can be mixed more efficiently with an concrete truck. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. But in most of our projects the use of a concrete mixer is essential.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

Once the concrete is mixed, we pour a concrete slab in the forms. To avoid air pockets, we cautiously pour the concrete mix. Air pockets are created when there is not enough mortar available to fill in the spaces around the aggregate. When making concrete, we make sure that we evenly disperse the mix across the shape. We do not fail to fill a space.
