What is a "concrete vibrator"?
A concrete vibrator is a tool used to remove air bubbles and ensure the even distribution of concrete when pouring it into molds or forms. It works by vibrating the concrete, which helps it settle and flow into all areas of the mold, resulting in a smooth, solid finish. Concrete vibrators are commonly used in construction to improve the strength and durability of concrete structures, such as slabs, walls, and columns. They come in different types, including handheld, portable versions or larger, more powerful machines for large-scale projects.
Examples
The construction crew used a concrete vibrator to ensure the slab was properly settled before it dried.
