Today the slab pour for the Imagine International Academy of
North Texas began. This two day, 40,000 square foot pour is broken into a
four section checkerboard pattern. By pouring the slab in sections no
larger than 10,000 square feet we can minimize surface cracking. This is
an especially important technique when the slab areas are more rectangular than
square, as is the case with the footprint of this building. The concrete is
leveled by a laser guided screed, ensuring the finished floor height will be
uniform over the entire slab.
