New Building

[ronmarabito2002]

In order to recommend the slab thickness, type concrete and
reinforcing, it is necessary to know the soil characteristics in the
area. I definitely would not use 2000 psi concrete. That's just
about good enough for a sidewalk, but not for a Bird. There should be
detailed soil information available from your county agent.
