Concrete slabs

Main steps in slab formation
Order these four steps in the slab formation process from first to last:
•	Formwork is removed when the concrete has set (cured).
•	Concrete is poured into the formwork.
•	Assemble the formwork which has been accurately built.
•	Steel reinforcing is positioned.
When you think you have these in the correct order, check your answer against the one shown below:
1.	Assemble the formwork which has been accurately built.
2.	Steel reinforcing is positioned.
3.	Concrete is poured into the formwork.
4.	Formwork is removed when the concrete has set (cured).
This procedure results with a well formed suspended slab set in concrete.
