failing which the surface of sub base shall be roughened with steel wire brushes, wetted by sprinkling
water and smeared with a coat of cement slurry at 3 KG / Sq.m.
29.4. FLOOR FINISH LAID SEPARATELY ON HARDENED CONCRETE BASE:
29.4.1 LAYING THE BASE CONCRETE: The base concrete may be deposited in the whole area at a
stretch. Before placing the concrete, the sub-base shall be properly wetted and rammed. The concrete
shall then be deposited between the forms, where provided, thoroughly tamped and the surface finished
level with the top edges of the forms. The surface of base concrete shall be left rough to provide
adequate bond for the topping. Two or three hours after the concrete has been laid in position, the
surface shall be brushed with a hard brush to remove any scum or laitance and swept clean so that the
coarse aggregate is exposed.
29.4.2 LAYING THE TOPPING: The surface of base concrete shall be thoroughly cleaned of all dirt, loose
particles, caked mortar dropping and laitance, if any, by scrubbing with coir or steel wire brush. Where
the concrete has hardened so much that roughening of surface by wire brush is not possible, the entire
surface shall be roughened by chipping or hacking. Before laying the topping, the surface shall be
soaked with water, at least for twelve hours and surplus water shall be removed by mopping
immediately before the topping is laid in position. The forms shall be fixed over the base concrete
dividing it into suitable panels. Before placing the concrete mix for topping, neat cement slurry at the

operations shall start shortly after the compaction of concrete and shall be spread over the period of one
to six hours depending upon the temperature and atmospheric condition. The surface shall be trowelled
three times at intervals so as to produce uniform, hard and closed knit surface. Immediately after
laying, only just sufficient trowelling shall be done to give a level surface. Excessive trowelling in the
earlier stages shall be avoided as this tends to work a layer rich in cement to the surface. Sometime
after the first trowelling and after a duration depending upon the temperature and atmospheric
condition, the surface shall be re-trowelled to close any pores in the surface, and to bring to surface and
scrap off any excess water in concrete laitance [it shall not be trowelled back into the topping].
29.4.4 The final trowelling shall be done well before the concrete has become too hard but at such a time that
considerable pressure is required to make any impression on the surface. Spreading and trowelling of a
rich mix of dry cement and fine aggregate on to the surface shall not be permitted.

roller to produce indentations, whilst the concrete is green. Expanded metal impressions, where
indicated, shall be made on the floor surface while green by pressing expanded metal of the mesh as
directed to a depth of 3mm and removing the same carefully.
29.5 CURING: Immediately after the flooring surface is finished, it shall be protected from rapid drying
and strong sunlight. As soon as the surface has hardened sufficiently to prevent damage to it, it shall be
kept continuously moist for at least fifteen days by means of wet gunny bags or 50mm thick layers of
