When it came time to measure the placements against the F-min specification and render a certification for compliance, a Floor Levelness and Flatness firm used the F-min Profiler to measure the exact wheel path of the intended material handling equipment. This allowed for instant results ensuring accurate measurements and layout of spot grinding in out-of-tolerance areas.

Q&A with the Inventor of the Somero Laser Screed

The Somero Laser Screed revolutionized the concrete industry by increasing concrete floor quality and taking some of the physical burden off concrete workers.

Construction schedules and contractor economics typically require concrete placements of 10,000 to 20,000 square feet or from 30,000 to 50,000 square feet when a Laser Screed is used. This figure shows a 300,000 square foot pour that was completed within 24 hours in a single concrete placement.

Specification Limits on Slab-on-Grade Placement Size

ACI 302 has stated since 1980 that a limited placement size concept has not achieved any better shrinkage results, is more expensive, and adds time to the schedule.

Battery-powered curbing machines are often used for monolithic pours but can also be used for patch and repair work and can complement slipform pavers for corners and tight radii involved with larger jobs.
