HUSQVARNA CONCRETE BUSINESS
HOW TO SUCCEED WITH YOUR APPLICATION
CONCRETE VIBRATION
It is important to vibrate freshly poured concrete. The vibrations make the concrete fill out into all the hollows of the construction. The process also evacuates air bubbles, optimizes the spread of the aggregate and maximizes the cohesion of the cement mix and the rebar. This results in resistant, long-lasting concrete with the correct calculated strength.
CONCRETE LEVELLING AND SURFACING
Levelling ensures every part of the newly poured concrete slab
achieves the desired level. Surfacing ensures the finish of the slab suits its intended purpose.
