Failure
Possible Cause
Remedial Measure
Vibrates insufficient
and as a result the
concrete floor can’t be
leveled and smoothed
in the proper way.
The centrifugal force is too
low.
Increase engine speed.
There are excessive amounts
of concrete along the leading
edge of the board.
Remove the excessive concrete from the board.
The chosen width of the board
is too large
Work with a smaller board.
Concrete looks
“WAVY” as the screed
board passes over it
Operator moving too slowly
Walk backwards at a faster pace.
Too much vibration for the
type of concrete
Reduce engine speed and walk backwards at a
faster pace.
Leaving HIGH or
LOW spots during wet
screeding.
Concrete too high or low on
one side?
Have workers shape the concrete close as possible
to grade. Maintain about 1 inch of concrete across
the front of the board at all times.
Board digs into wet
concrete.
Is board positioned correctly?
Each end of the board must ride on the same sur-
face. Either each end of the board rides on forms or
concrete (wet screed) not both.
