What happens here

The mini skid steer efficiently delivers loads of concrete to different sections within the forms. Workers then use shovels and rakes to evenly spread the concrete throughout the formwork. A long wooden screed board is meticulously pulled across the top of the forms, resting on the edges, to level the concrete. This process removes any excess material and ensures a smooth, flat surface with a consistent 6-inch thickness as specified for the slab.

Goal: Achieve a level and uniformly thick concrete slab.
