you need to have a ''keyway''---that is a groove in the base concrete,can be cut in if concrete has set,if not set,oil a 2x4lightly(lightly) & imbed it into the base concrete flush.
Dry lean concrete is used as a sub base for structural concrete. It contains much less cement and more sand compared to structural concrete.
can we use polypropline fibre in concrete
Hi, Concrete is used for holding poles and signs up as well as a stable base for houses.
Concrete need a uniform and compacted base, so as long as that rock is uniform and compacted, you should be fine.

steel and concrete. the main base is concrete.

The tower is built from monolithic reinforced concrete. The base is set upon 24 concrete filled steel pilings and are capped by a thirty foot wide by three foot deep octagonal concrete base on which the tower was built
you could but it would be rather uncomfortable! You could build the base out of concrete if your floor would support it but you would want a mattress with a lot more give. Regarding the heavy concrete base, I hear that far lighter types of concrete are now being made using ash and extruded styrene instead of sand in the concrete and with glass fibre or vegetable fibre instead of steel armature. It sounds like a good idea - the base wouldn't creak.
Build a small concrete "base" to put the columns on that will bring the columns up to the right hight. One foot square base should suffice, with a column baseplate.
Concrete need a uniform and compacted base, so as long as that rock is uniform and compacted, you should be fine.
The strength will vary depending on the type of concrete, the base, and the presence or absence of steel or fiberglass reinforcing.

plinth= base. The statue was erected on a concrete plinth.
