What happens here
After the sub-base is perfectly graded, a layer of white polyethylene plastic is laid out across the entire area within the wooden forms. This acts as a vapor barrier, preventing moisture from the ground from rising into the concrete slab, which helps prevent issues like mold, mildew, and structural damage.
Goal: Prevent moisture intrusion into the concrete slab.
