What must be taken into account when erecting the foundation

Make a reinforcement of the foundation. An important moment when laying the concrete of the foundation is to maintain the sequence of the process without interruption. The foundation should be poured as entirely as possible. To pour large volumes of concrete mixture for the foundation, concrete pumps are used.

With the help of a special construction vibrator, new concrete is compacted so that the mixture lay evenly. When the installation of the foundation slab is completed, a metal formwork and a frame of reinforcement are mounted, according to pre -made markings for release of reinforcement.

The foundation, most often, the full volume goes beyond the provided value of formwork (by 55-65 m3), therefore, concrete on foundations has to be laid in several stages.

After all the above completion of the construction of the foundation, the foundation is insulated using extruded polystyrene foam (foam). To protect the insulation of the foundation from deformation, it is covered with a layer of acoid or laid out protective masonry. Then they complete the construction of the drainage system of the foundation and pave the engineering communications necessary at this stage.
