The floor slab was poured this morning. The photo was taken at eight pm in the evening and you can already clearly make out where the insulation is below. These areas are drying more rapidly. The deeper areas of concrete that still appear wet are what gives the slab it's required strength, they will need to cure before taking a substantial load.
When the concrete is set saw cuts will be make to help control future shrinkage. The slab is then going to be ground off, honed and sealed. The floor will be protected during the building works. At completion the floor finish is the honed concrete surface.
Fingers crossed the local kids don't get busy leaving their mark tonight!
