do's and dont's of pcc works

Do's 😊



  • 1. Check and get the soil strata approved from the structural
  •  Consultant before doing of PCCin foundation.
  • 2. PCC shuttering should be of the exact size and thickness
  • Dry materials should be uniformly mixed before adding water to it.
  • 3. Water should be mixed with a bucket, in a measured quantity,
  •  as per w/c (water/ cement) ratio.
  • 4. Use the chute or additional labour to pour the concrete
  •  where the depth is more.
  • 5. Remove any loose material from the sides of the pit, so that no soil 
  • or other material will collapse in the pit during concreting.
  • 6. If the water table is high, then de-watering should be carried out at the
  •  same time during concreting.
  • 7. Compact and level the concrete properly.
  • 8. Maintain the levels of PCC.
  • 9. The next day, mark the centre of the column.

Dont's 😔

1. Do not mix the materials on bare land.

2. Do not just-pour the water in materials by means of a pipe. 
i.e. without any measurement control.

3. Do not allow the PCC without formwork.

4. Do not pour concrete without levelling and compacting.

5. Do not pour concrete in the pit from a height of more than 1.5 m.

6. Do not allow extra cement mortar on top of PCC. for smooth finishing.
