How Is a Structural Shop Slab Foundation Poured in Arkansas?

An engineered concrete shop slab is poured using a monolithic turn-down footing design. Trenching creates deep perimeter footings (12" to 24" deep by 12" wide) with continuous #4 or #5 rebar cages to support the weight of steel building columns. A 10-mil vapor barrier is laid over compacted SB2 gravel to block ground moisture. Steel rebar is tied on chairs at 16" to 18" intervals across the floor. 4000 PSI ready-mix is poured monolithically, screeded flat, and finished with mechanical power trowels for an ultra-dense, glass-smooth industrial floor.

Do you install anchor bolts for steel building kits?

Yes. We review your building manufacturer's engineering blueprints, set template jigs with laser precision, and wet-set or drill-and-epoxy anchor bolts exactly where your steel columns will mount.

Can you handle the pad dirt work and plumbing rough-ins?

Yes! We have heavy excavators and skid-steers for land clearing, pad grading, and SB2 base spreading. We also coordinate with your plumber to box out or pour around plumbing lines.
