Safety is the top priority for all concrete projects. Prior to beginning any work, we make sure that we're properly outfitted with safety gear. Eye protection and long sleeves, or long pants and rubber gloves are all necessary. All of these safeguard us against concrete splashes.

 

Similar to previously, we now follow the following steps:

 

Step 1: On-site Preparation

Whatever the size or huge the project may be We use the same method for all projects. We always start by preparing the site for all the projects we do. We clear away all traces of contamination so that we can begin from scratch. As part of the preparation we make sure that everything is on site. The transportation of materials is planned prior to when actually work can begin. This allows us to begin and finish the work on time.

 

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

After everything is clean and tidy, we begin to install concrete forms with wire mesh. Concrete forms are solid barriers that hold concrete mix in position. Concrete forms force concrete mix to take on a specific shape or style. As for larger structures, we use rebar to reinforce concrete. This helps concrete surfaces become stronger.

 

Step 3: Mixing Concrete Mix

Concrete trucks are used to help make life easier. It helps to ensure that concrete materials are mixed properly. Sometimes, we do manual mixing. However, in the majority of cases we make use of a concrete mixer.

 

Step 4: Pouring Concrete

After mixing concrete, we pour the concrete into the molds. It is crucial to take care that there aren't excessive air pockets while pouring concrete. Air pockets are caused by too much mortar not being put on top of the aggregate. Concrete is made by ensuring that the mortar is evenly distributed throughout the shape.
