We start pouring the concrete slab on one end and pour out about 3/4 of the slab with one guy raking the concrete as level as he can with the top of the forms. Another guy is mag floating the edges and I"m holding the Truck chute. We screed the concrete with 2 guys "kick screeding" and one guy raking or puddling the concrete behind us. After screeding, I bull float the concrete smooth and we install the anchor bolts. To learn how we install concrete slabs like this from start to finish, you can learn from my CONCRETE SLAB course below. It will teach you each step in an easy to follow video format.
