concreter
Pours foundation slabs
A concreter is a worker who pours, spreads, and finishes concrete—mixing it, laying it into forms, and smoothing the surface before it sets.
The term is more common in British and Australian English; Americans typically say concrete worker or concrete finisher.
The concreters arrived at dawn to pour the foundation.
