Laser Screed FM2 Flooring in Selaqui, Dehradun
Laser-guided floor screeding for the pharmaceutical, food and engineering units in the Selaqui industrial area, west of Dehradun.
Laser screed FM2 flooring in Selaqui is usually a question of getting a large, flat, low-joint floor into a building that was not laid out for the machine. The plots here are tighter than on the bigger estates and the sheds are often divided, so the value of the method comes less from raw speed and more from what it removes: side forms, construction joints, and the level differences that creep in when a floor is set out bay by bay.

Fewer joints is the point in a Selaqui building
A lot of what is made in Selaqui is made under hygiene rules — pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food and beverage production, with the packing and warehousing that goes with it. In those buildings a construction joint is not just a level change; it is an edge that collects, an edge that chips under a pallet truck, and an edge that has to be cleaned around for the life of the floor.
Placing with a laser screed is how you end up with fewer of them. The telescopic boom works into the pour from outside it, so wide bays go down in one operation instead of being broken into strips between forms. The laser holds one level plane across the whole area, so where joints do remain, they are not steps.
Where the specification calls for a free-movement class such as FM2, this is the normal route to it — but the flatness comes from the whole sequence, not the machine alone. Levelling, floating, trowelling and the timing between them all decide the final survey.
Concrete supply sets the plan here
On a laser screed pour, the machine is almost never the constraint — the concrete is. It has to arrive continuously, at a consistent slump, for as long as the bay takes. Break the supply and you get a cold joint and a level step exactly where you least want one.
So the planning for a Selaqui job starts from the batching arrangement and the mixer cycle rather than from the machine, and the bay sizes are set to what the supply can genuinely sustain. If the honest answer is that the supply will not hold a pour that size, we cut the bay rather than risk the floor.
What we plan around on Selaqui, Dehradun sites
- Reach planned against the building Internal walls, columns and door positions are worked out first, so the boom can actually reach every part of the bay it is meant to place.
- Supply-led bay sizes Bay layout follows what the concrete supply can sustain without a break, not the maximum the machine could theoretically cover.
- Hygiene-area detailing Where the floor runs into a controlled or washdown area, joint positions and surface finish are agreed with that requirement in mind.
- Survey where it is specified If a flatness class is written into your specification, the floor is surveyed after construction and the results given to you.

Do you take laser screed work in Selaqui and around Dehradun?
Yes. Selaqui and the wider Dehradun industrial belt are within the area we work in from Haridwar. Because laser screeding needs the plant, the crew and a sustained concrete supply all on site together, we confirm the programme at the site visit rather than over the phone.
Our Selaqui building has internal walls. Can a laser screed still be used?
It depends on the clear spans and on how the machine can get in and move. The boom needs room to work into the pour from outside it, so a subdivided building sometimes rules it out, sometimes only changes the sequence. We look at the layout before recommending it — and if truss screeding suits your building better, that is what we quote.
Can the floor be laid to a pharmaceutical hygiene standard?
The concrete floor is the base, not the finished hygienic surface. For controlled areas it is normally laid flat and sound by screed, then finished with a seamless resin system and coved at the walls. We plan the slab with that second stage already in mind, because preparation and flatness decide how well the resin goes down.
