Why Choose a Slab on Grade Foundation?

A slab on grade foundation is a concrete slab poured directly onto the ground, offering a sturdy base that distributes the building’s weight evenly. This type of foundation is ideal for Texas’s warm climate, as it provides stability without the need for deep excavation. Here’s why slab on grade is a popular choice:

Durability: Designed to support heavy loads and withstand shifting soil, slab on grade foundations offer a long-lasting solution.
Cost-Effective: With minimal excavation, slab on grade is often more affordable and time-efficient than other foundation types.
Energy Efficiency: Concrete slabs help regulate indoor temperatures, reducing heating and cooling costs.
Low Maintenance: Slab on grade foundations are highly resistant to common issues like moisture seepage and pest infiltration.

Our Slab on Grade Process

At Texas Concrete Construction, we follow a meticulous process for each slab on grade foundation project to ensure quality, stability, and durability. Our process adheres to the standards set by the American Concrete Institute (ACI), guaranteeing reliability for both residential and commercial applications.

Site Preparation

The first step in creating a slab on grade foundation is thorough site preparation. Our team ensures that the ground is properly graded and compacted, providing a stable base for the slab. Proper drainage is also planned to prevent any water accumulation under the slab.

Formwork and Reinforcement

Once the site is prepared, we install precise formwork to outline the slab’s dimensions. We then place reinforcement materials such as steel rebar or wire mesh to strengthen the slab, helping it withstand heavy loads and preventing cracks or shifting.

Concrete Pouring and Leveling

Our team then pours high-quality concrete into the prepared form, ensuring an even distribution across the entire slab area. We use advanced techniques to minimize air pockets and create a smooth, level surface.

Finishing and Curing

After leveling, the slab undergoes finishing to create a durable surface. We then monitor the curing process closely, allowing the slab to reach optimal strength. Proper curing is essential for a long-lasting, stable foundation that can support the intended structure.
