Hi all.
Were struggling at the moment trying to get the civils in for an atl mot lane.
We need to cut a section of concrete floor out bigger than the lift and re concrete a base for it 160mm lower than the surface as is now to form a sort of resessed swimming pool 160mm deep so when the lift is in low position it's flush with the main floor.
We don't know wether to leave the edge as concrete or to finish it off and to help with screeding. Some resesses have a steel liner with a 90deg edge on top the surrounding floor is then replaced flush with to 90deg top edge
Like this
Can anyone identify this kind of steel is it purpose folded or is it a stock item. It only appears it's thin because they use a few props to hold it straight while concrete is poured/sets
