Slab preparation and pouring:

Formwork Installation:
Build formwork around the perimeter of the slab area using wooden boards.

Ensure that
the formwork

is set at the correct elevation and properly aligned with the tops of the
pedestrian columns.

Reinforcement Placement:
Place steel reinforcement mesh or rebar within the formwork to add strength
to the slab. The spacing and placement should follow engineering
specifications.
Use spacers to maintain the correct position of the
reinforcement within the slab.

Concrete Pouring:
Pour the concrete into the formwork within the slab area, starting at one end
and working your way to the other.

Screeding:
Use a screed board to level the surface of the concrete.

Curing:
Curing is essential for
the concrete's
strength and
durability.
Formwork Removal:
After the concrete has cured sufficiently (typically after a few days), carefully
remove the formwork.
