Diy Porch Pouring Guide: Cinder Block Foundation
To pour a porch on a cinder block foundation, begin by laying out the perimeter and excavating to the desired depth. Install the cinder blocks, making sure they are level and plumb. Backfill the perimeter and compact the soil. Install rebar into the cinder blocks, providing reinforcement for the concrete. Construct formwork around the perimeter of the porch, ensuring it is level and secure. Pour the concrete into the formwork, smooth the surface, and remove air bubbles using a vibrator. Allow the concrete to cure for several days before removing the formwork.
