We’re not concrete finishers. But it’s concrete, and it’s finished 🤣 #build #builder #construction

What happens here

After the concrete has been poured into a section of the prepared formwork, a man uses a long, straight board, known as a screed board, to level the surface. He carefully pulls the screed board across the top edges of the forms, removing any excess concrete and creating a flat, uniform surface for the slab. This process is crucial for achieving the desired thickness and a smooth finish.

Goal: Level a section of freshly poured concrete.
