What this work involves
Coordinate structural drawings, openings, services and finished floor levels before preparing the concrete work.
- Slab or wall build-up
- Openings and service penetrations
- Flatness and final finish
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Coordinate structural tolerances and required finish layers beforehand.
What the drawing needs to explain
Draw one bespoke junction at a large scale with every adjoining finish layer. Identify who takes final dimensions and which substrate must be ready for that measurement.
Decide this before construction
Approve material combinations and the sample detail before production. Complete work affecting dimensions before ordering final bespoke components.
Cost factors for this service
Costs depend on volume, formwork, access and finish requirements. Ask for the scope and selected specification to be described separately.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs of the existing situation, available drawings and your requirements for concrete work & slabs. Identify the elements that should remain.
Questions about the work
What should I discuss before arranging concrete work & slabs?
A structural concrete slab and a decorative concrete finish are different elements. Ask for both to be specified separately.
The design situations here illustrate choices; they are not completed projects or a diagnosis of your property.
