To repair an uneven concrete finish, you can use a self-leveling compound designed for concrete floors. Clean the area thoroughly, mix the compound according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and pour it over the uneven surface. Use a trowel to spread the compound evenly and allow it to dry as per the recommended time before walking or placing any heavy objects on it.
Formwork serves several important functions in construction, including providing support for fresh concrete, shaping the concrete to the desired form, ensuring the structural integrity of the concrete element, and helping to achieve a smooth finish on the concrete surface.
The inside surface of forms are oiled to prevent the concrete from sticking to the formwork when it dries. This allows the formwork to be easily removed without damaging the concrete surface. Oil also helps in creating a smooth finish on the concrete.
The purpose of a trowel is to use to smooth out concrete and to finish it. It is used by contractors, and is a ride on machine or stand behind machine used by the contractor.

A precast concrete solid plank is a large, flat structural element made from concrete that is cast off-site and then transported to a construction site for installation. It typically has a rectangular shape with a smooth finish on the top surface and may have reinforcement bars embedded within the concrete for added strength. The planks are commonly used in building construction for flooring or roofing systems due to their durability and cost-effectiveness.
