It's normal plus the materials are on hand just make sure they cover it with cement and smooth it over before laying any tiles.

In my case I also had my contractor install metal rods before cementing over to prevent cracking and add strength.

I forgot exactly how much is the total cost but it came up to roughly RM600 to cover up a 22x6 sqf section of my backyard. hmm.gif

edit: Doesn't include tiles since it's the backyard and I didn't wan't grass growing there tongue.gif

Normal floor slab means that it sits on ground. Not suspended.
I think that is BRC which is a type of reinforcement used for slab. It comes in 4 x 8 feet & the price depend on the type.

vries for my knowledge, what does BRC stand for? Tried google but the acronym is too general notworthy.gif
