The floor moulds to form the floor planks can be in varied forms to suit the particular type of floor required by the client. In most situations the moulds will be steel pans laid horizontally with removable sides. Once the planks have attaned sufficient strength, the sides are detached and the floor units lifted out of the pans by crane.
The quality of the concrete will again be high in order to achieve the high early strength and hardness to prevent damage during handling.
