Concrete terrace
In fact, it is common to build a terrace with masonry foundations, we speak of concrete screed.
The foundations can then be covered with wood, tiles, stone or concrete ...
A concrete liner can also be laid on sand foundations.
Concrete is a material composed of aggregates (sand, chippings) agglomerated together with a cement.
These aggregates can be natural or artificial. The size of the aggregates diverges:
we use large aggregates rather for the shell,
while the finer ones are used to obtain a more neat result.
The strength of concrete is a function of the difference in sizes of materials. The concrete terrace can take various aspects:
Concrete can be poured in one slab.
The terrace is composed of squares of concrete called slabs.
How to pour a concrete slab
Put your concrete mixer, concrete mix, water, sand, cement, wheelbarrow and shovel in one place.Pour the water into the concrete mixer first, then the mixture or the sand then the cement with the usual proportions or those marked on the cement bag for those who do not remember the quantities to use ... Your concrete in the concrete mixer must to have the appearance of a mashed potato, neither too dry nor too liquid but between 2.
Wet the surface that will receive the concrete, fill the wheelbarrow and pour the contents on your future terrace well between each guide.
Pull the concrete to the ruler by making several same passes. No matter if your floor is not floated, if the concrete is not smoot
Since normally you will discover tiling or stone pavement.
