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.
Assess which later alterations need structural preparation now.
What the drawing needs to explain
Draw two uses within the same floor plan. Mark walls, doors and connections that stay unchanged and identify the alteration actually needed later.
Decide this before construction
Choose the current layout first, then assess targeted preparation for later. Record which provisions are installed now and how they remain identifiable and accessible.
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.
