Update 7/2/07
We were away in Ohio for a reunion, so I wasn't around for the slab pouring...sucks. Anyways, the pour was done on Friday and its been curing now for 3 days. Here are some pics with the rebar and such before the slab pour.
The #4 rebar is placed 16" on center and sits 3 inches below the surface of the slab.
Looking from the blotter layer up through the rebar, you can see the slab is going to be at least 7" thick in most places with close to 9-10" in the areas near the footer.
So here is the slab I came back home to on Sunday evening. I immediately put some water on it to slow evaporation (LA has been in the mid-80's the past few days) and to promote a slow cure.
I ended up with one saw-cut control joint in the middle of the slab that will evenutally be filled and hidden under the epoxy coating. Framers are here right now figuring out the lumber order and framing begins on Tuesday.
Good times.
