What are the tasks concreters are expected to do?

Concreters may use hand tools and automated machinery when placing and spreading concrete for buildings, tunnels, roads and even marine structures. But these skilled workers actually have more tasks they are skilled in. Below are some of the tasks and duties of general concreters:

• Making concrete on-site by mixing cement, sand, gravel and water.
• Using a concrete pump when moving concrete to a specified site location.
• Ensuring concrete is spread, levelled and compacted by placing it into the formwork of steel moulds or temporary wood.
• Polishing, troweling or floating the concrete surface using paving and trowelling machines.
• Using various hand tools to tamp, smooth, or shape the concrete surface to create different types of surface textures.
• When a surface is specified to be coloured, concreters are responsible for the mixing and applying of pigments. They use colouring powders and other materials in covering recently poured concrete.
• For small commercial and residential projects, they can dig the foundation trenches rather than using costly equipment.
• Curing concrete by covering it with plastic sheeting and sand.
• Using power cutters to cut lines in concrete.
• Erecting concrete formwork.
• Laying steel reinforcing.
