Hi, really looking for some help and advice please.
We are concreting at the moment, and i'm looking at the formwork our concretor has done and I don't believe it's right. It's formed up with crushed rock base (all good) and with steel mesh bars than just sitting on that rock base (not so good).
I've always seen the steel mesh bars sitting on the little black chair so that when the concrete is poured the steel ends up in the middle of the slab. The way that he has formed up, the steel will end up under the slab essentially, which I cannot see giving any strenght?
Am I wrong? Please help, I believe he wants to pour the driveway tomorrow and I want to stop him if it's wrong!!!
