valentinziSeptember 2022: Final thin and smooth #concrete protection layer with vicat promt natural cement and trass-lime. Abrasion and acid-resistant #floor.
I didn't have the tools for perfect smoothing, but it turned out good enough for the #stable#barn.
The floor is rock solid, but also a bit cold and slippery. So i have to use a lot of straw bedding. I plan to put another raised wooden floor on top of the concrete floor with 1.5cm gaps between the boards so that the liquid waste can drain away.
To have better floor insulation I would use less gravel stones and mix "Laterlite Expanded Clay" into the concrete. The iron grids as reinforcment would not have been absolutely necessary. It is a bit to stable.
