Erect the slab formwork either using conventional scaffold framing and timber combination or

using system formworks.

After the slab formwork is done, apply releasing agent using rollers for ease of striking.
Meanwhile, the slab reinforcement bars can be brought into the slab formwork ready for
installation.

Lay the main reinforcement bars of bottom layer of the slab spaced evenly according to design or
drawings.

Tie the reinforcement bars at both ends to maintain the spacing.

Lay the distribution bars and tie them to the main reinforcement bars.

Install additional slab reinforcements if there’s any.

After completing the bottom layer of slab reinforcement, allow the M&E contractors to lay the
concealed services.

Install bar chairs acting as spacers between top and bottom reinforcements.

Lay the top reinforcements with distribution bars fixed on first and the main reinforcements on
the upper layer (transverse direction).

After completing the slab top reinforcements, clean and blow away the dust by using
compressed air.

Meantime, the surveyor must check the formwork level and install the markings for the concrete
level.After the formwork level measurements are done, furnish the copy from the surveyor and
locate the area which varies from the correct level.

After the adjustment is done, do a routine formwork inspection to check the stability of the
frames and runners.

Ensure the slab level markers are fixed nice and tight so that it will not move during the concrete
pouring operation.

Check all the formwork gaps and ensure that they are plugged before concrete placement.
Concrete slurry will flow through the gaps and will lead to grout loss if not rectified.

Spray water to the formwork and reinforcements to lower down the temperature. Wet concrete
temperature must be less than 35deg Celsius during pouring.

Prepare the vibrator machine while waiting for the concrete truck to come. It is always good to
have a back-up vibrator if in case something goes wrong.

All concrete trucks must report to the cube room for slump test. The arrival time will be
recorded.

Check the slump height whether it is within the tolerance, if not the concrete would be rejected.
A note to the D.O. reflecting the slump stating “REJECTED”.

Only those trucks that passed the slump test would be allowed to unload the concrete.

Meanwhile, make test cube samples for the concrete batch. Normally for slab, cube must be
taken at every 50 cu.m. (refer to project specification). Total 3 + 3 cubes shall be made for 7-day
and 28-day test, respectively. You can make extra cubes if you want just for the purpose of
earlier test like 3-day test or for water absorption test if you are using waterproofing admixture.

Proceed to concrete placement and maintain sufficient light when the operation reaches dusk or
even until midnight.

On the next day, check the concrete slab surface and ensure it is sufficiently dry after 12hrs. If
not, no traffic shall be allowed until its hard enough.

Spray water and flood the concrete to cure and repeat when it’s needed.
