Abstract

Provided is a process for producing a concrete platform to which an object to be supported is fixed, including: a step of forming form having a pair of concrete side walls and a concrete bottom slab that connects the pair of side walls (S 2 ); a step of setting the form on a plurality of piers (S 3 ); and a step of pouring concrete into the form that is set on the plurality of piers (S 6 ).

Claims (12)

1. A process for producing a concrete platform on which an object to be supported is fixed, comprising:

a step of forming a form having a pair of concrete side walls and a concrete bottom slab that connects the pair of side walls so that each of the concrete side walls and the concrete bottom slab is provided thereinside with a linear reinforcing member that extends in a longitudinal direction of the form;

a step of setting the form on a plurality of piers after a connecting member that connects each of an upper edge portion of each of the side walls of the form by being placed on the upper edge portions is attached to the pair of side walls; and

a step of pouring concrete into the form that is set on the plurality of piers.

2. A process for producing a concrete platform according to claim 1 , wherein an attachment part that is partially embedded in the concrete that is poured into the form so as to fix the object to be supported is aligned with the connecting member in a positionable manner.

3. A process for producing a concrete platform according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting member is removed from the upper edge portions of the pair of side walls after the step of pouring concrete.

4. A process for producing a concrete platform according to claim 1 , wherein, in the step of forming the form, the linear reinforcing member is arranged inside each of the concrete side walls and the concrete bottom slab in a state in which each linear reinforcing member is tensioned in the longitudinal direction when the concrete for the form is poured to form the concrete side walls and the concrete bottom slab.

5. A process for producing a concrete platform according to claim 4 , wherein, in the step of setting the form on the plurality of piers, the form is set on the plurality of piers after a connecting member that connects each of upper portions of the pair of side walls of the form by being placed on upper edge portions is attached to the pair of side walls.

6. A process for producing a concrete platform according to claim 5 , wherein an attachment part that is partially embedded in the concrete that is poured into the form so as to fix the object to be supported is aligned with the connecting member in a positionable manner.

7. A process for producing a concrete platform according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting member is removed from the upper edge portions of the pair of side walls after the step of pouring concrete.

8. A process for producing a concrete platform according to claim 1 , further comprising the step of disposing inner reinforcing bars as an inner set of linear reinforcing members within an interior of the form so as to be enclosed in the concrete poured into the form.

9. A process for producing a concrete platform according to claim 1 , further comprising connecting the reinforcing bars provided in the sidewalls of the form with reinforcing bars sticking out from upper ends of the piers, using connecting the reinforcing bars, and further enclosing spaces in which the connected reinforcing bars are positioned, with space enclosing forms.
