Doing your decorative homework

There are several considerations that need to be addressed in the pre-job guidelines of decorative concrete business. One of the best ways to establish and maintain a good working relationship with the architect and owner of a decorative project is to copy a procedure common to the masonry industry. Field mock-ups of the slab should closely match actual conditions. In view of the need for minor repairs, the contractor should demonstrate the method for the architect's approval on the test slab.
