Brace the Forms Every two feet, place 2×4 stakes and 2×4 kickers (slanted down into the ground) along the form boards. This bracing will keep the boards in place as the concrete cures.

Staking into cement - not ideal, but can be done. Most venues hate this option, but you can drive stakes into asphalt / pavement then patch the holes after the event.

The minimum depth of footings below the surface of undisturbed soil, compacted fill material or controlled low strength material (CLSM) shall be 12 inches (305 mm). Where applicable, the requirements of CBC Section 1809.5 shall also be satisfied. The minimum width of footings shall be 12 inches (305 mm).

Wood is the most cost-effective and popular material for concrete forms. Properly built wooden forms are lightweight, flexible and durable. When choosing the wood for concrete forms, select straight, flat lumber with minimal knots.

After marking out the walls of the house, put pegs in the ground 1 metre away from the house marking. Nail a piece of wood horizontally across the pegs. This will be used to mark the foundations. With builders line, mark the position of the foundations (normally 600mm wide for domestic houses).

Place stakes about 30 inches apart along the outside of the form for 4 inch thick concrete. Place the stakes close when the concrete is more than 4 inches thick. Use a transit or level to adjust the height of forms for the desired slope or fall of the slab.

So, the area of the footing = (Total Load)/(Bearing Capacity). = (P + Load of footing)/(Bearing Capacity). = (P * 1.1)/qu.
