POURING THE CONCRETE SLAB

> >
◗ Position the top layer of rebar (second layer) over the entire surface of the excavation
before pouring the concrete.
◗ Once laid, the metal trellis should cover the whole surface (lay the trellis such that it is
set 3 to 5 cm back from the edge around the entire periphery). Some cutting around
the posts will be necessary (fi g 9a.). Bars should be allowed to overlap and should be
connected together.

◗ While pouring the slab, make sure that the
upper rebar mesh is encased to the correct
depth in the concrete.
(minimum 3 cm)
◗ Level the surface and smooth it as carefully
as possible in order to minimise protrusions
and asperities that will have to be corrected
later.
