Follow these steps also.

 

Step 1: Preparation for the site

We follow the same process, no matter what size project we are working on. The first step is to prepare the area for any projects we undertake. In order to start from scratch, we clean up and eliminate any waste. As part of the preparation process it is essential that all the necessary materials are on-site. We schedule the delivery of the material prior to the start of work begins. This helps us complete the project within the timeframe.

 

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

After the site is cleaned and is ready for installation Wire mesh is used to set concrete forms. Concrete forms are solid barriers that hold concrete mix in the right place. Concrete forms force concrete to conform to a specific shape or design. Rebar is used to strengthen concrete to support larger structures. This makes concrete stronger surfaces.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

Concrete trucks make things much easier. It helps to ensure that concrete materials are mixed properly. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. In the majority of projects, a concrete mixer is a must.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

After mixing concrete we put a concrete slab in the molds. Be careful when pouring the concrete mix to avoid creating too many air pockets. Air pockets can form because there isn't enough mortar to fill in the spaces around the aggregate. When pouring concrete, it is important to ensure that we evenly distribute the mix throughout the form. We do not leave a gap.
