      How long does concrete last before going hard?

      Australian Standards suggest that concrete should be utilised within 90 minutes of leaving the concrete plant.


      How many bar chairs do I need?

      Bar chairs are placed underneath your sheets of 'Reo Mesh' to ‘sit the sheets of mesh’ up off the slab floor. With the majority of residential slabs being 100 mm deep the most popular size of bar chairs is 50/65 mm bar chairs. The concrete when poured then binds around the mesh for maximum tensile and strength.


      Does the concrete come ready mixed or do I have to mix it myself?

      Concrete is a mixture of sand, soils, aggregates (i.e. rock or stone), water and cement. Concrete trucks deliver the concrete already pre-mixed to your site. Simply prepare your slab and await the truck.


      Should I place steel reinforcement in my concrete slab?

      Concrete is strong in compression (squashing) and weak in tension (stretching). The introduction of steel (reinforcement) in concrete improves the strength of concrete in tension. In a slab-on-ground, reinforcement increases the tensile strength and helps control the width of shrinkage cracks. If soil conditions are known to be poor, e.g. expansive clay soils, consult a structural engineer.


      What aggregate of soil should I lay under my concrete slab?

      Most concreters recommend laying crusher dust under the slab to smooth out the surface and provide a fill that allows the concrete to stabilise in an even manner.


      Can I receive concrete on weekends?

      Yes, Saturday is an extremely popular day for individual homeowners to pour concrete.
