Concreting a new terrace.

You can notice only the edges are armed as the concrete contains 3kg/m3 of iron needles, so no armature is needed.

I am still doubtful about this method, and the needles on the surface are getting rusted if you don't put a cover straight away., like tiling.

More concrete. This is the last of 12 large concrete pours (around 30,000 cubic meters total). Typically a concrete pump is used to deliver the concrete where it is needed (see operator on right side of photo), but it is all manual from that point onward.
