Abstract
A portable screed for working concrete and having an elongated screed plate which has a flat bottom bearing surface and a width sufficient to permit the screed to float on the concrete while the screed is being guided by an operator. For imparting uniform vibrations to the screed plate for tamping the concrete, the screed includes a stiffening brace extending substantially the length of the screed, a series of rigid, spaced cross supports secured to the brace, and a vibratory mechanism connected to vibrate the screed plate through the cross supports. A motor is mounted on the screed plate for operating the vibratory mechanism.
