Placement of Slabs

Figure 62 – Concrete placing techniques.

When constructing slabs, place the concrete at the far end of the slab first, and then place subsequent batches against previously placed concrete, as shown in View 3 of Figure 62. Do not place the concrete in separate piles and then level the piles and work them together. Also, don’t deposit the concrete in piles and then move them horizontally to their final position. These practices can result in segregation.
