The present invention relates to a concrete screeding apparatus, and more particularly to an improved portable and lightweight vibrating concrete screed enabling a workman to use same without the need for rigid forms. The screeding apparatus comprises a generally elongated beam having a horizontal surface and a generally vertical surface. A plurality of vibrators are mounted on the beam. The height of the vertical surface diminishes from the center to the edges so as to increase the amplitude of vibration and, therefore, improve the manoeuverability of the screed. In addition, the corners formed by the trailing edge and the side edges of the horizontal surface are rounded so as to avoid the penetration of the side edges into the freshly poured concrete.

A screed for smoothing off freshly poured concrete comprising: a generally horizontal planar bottom plate of uniform width throughout the length of said screed, said bottom plate having rearward corners; a generally vertical continuous front plate generally perpendicular to said bottom plate; said bottom plate and said front plate intersecting and defining a striking edge wherein the thickness of the horizontal planar bottom plate decreases from the intersection of the horizontal planar bottom plate with the rearward surface of the generally vertical continuous front plate to said rearward corners; vibrating means mounted on said screed; and, at least one support member attached to said screed wherein the height of said front plate diminishes from center to its side edges, the rearward corners of said horizontal planar bottom plate are rounded, and a portion of said generally vertical continuous front plate is curved throughout the length of said screed.
