How To Form, Pour, and Finish A Concrete Driveway / Parking Area Slab
#EverythingAboutConcrete #MikeDayConcrete #concretedriveway
This video shows us installing a concrete driveway that'll be used for a parking area. We had to form, install a mat of rebar, pour and broom finish the concrete for this slab.
The concrete slab sloped to one side a few inches to shed rain water. The 6 inch thick slab on a 2 foot thick gravel pad is how we do most our concrete driveways here in Maine. We get freezing temperatures from December to March and the 2 feet of gravel usually prevents the slab from heaving in those cold temperatures.
