When a foundation for residential, commercial, and industrial structures are poured, they are crafted with unique considerations in mind. Residential foundations include excavation, footing, electrical, and plumbing fixtures with concrete poured properly within the footing perimeter. Commercial and industrial concrete foundations will often be approached differently to suit higher foot and vehicle traffic. A different type of concrete is used for these slabs. The mixture of cement accommodates higher pressures caused from steel structures and furnishing. The way we achieve a higher durability of cement is by using less water with more sand and aggregate.
Finding the best team for laying a proper foundation is something that should not be taken lightly. The considerations that play into choosing a concrete contractor should include their reputation, insurance, licensure, and experience.
