Ormeau Engineering & Pour Specifications

N25 & N32 Concrete Strength

We use N25 (25MPa) grade concrete for standard paths and shed slabs. For vehicle driveways and heavy traffic, we pour N32 (32MPa) concrete to ensure high load capacity and minimal wear.

Premium Steel Reinforcement

All of our slabs feature standard SL72 steel mesh laid on plastic bar chairs to ensure maximum structural reinforcement in the center of the concrete pour.

Proper Subgrade Compaction

We prevent shifting and cracking by compacting the subgrade and laying a 50mm compacted roadbase layer before installing steel mesh and pouring.

Expansion Control Joints

We cut control joints at precise intervals to prevent cracking and place flexible expansion joints where the new concrete meets the existing house slab or walls.

Professional Execution

Our Concreting Process: Excavation to Sealing

01

Excavation & Base Prep

We excavate to the required depth, remove grass and roots, compact the subgrade using a mechanical plate compactor, and lay a compacted roadbase or crusher dust foundation.

02

Formwork & Steel Laying

We set up straight timber formwork to define the slab edges, lay plastic moisture underlay if required, and position SL72 reinforcement mesh on plastic support chairs.

03

Concrete Pouring & Finishing

We pour concrete (using line pumps if required), level with a screed bar, and apply the final finishβ€”whether it's heavy broom (for crossovers), exposed aggregate wash, or stenciling.

04

Cutting & Sealing

We cut concrete control joints to manage expansion stress and apply two coats of UV-stable solvent acrylic concrete sealer to protect the slab from dirt and stains.
