Today, some friends and I filled in the area and tamped it down. I am now ready to hose it down and then lay some Visqueen and rebar. My question is: on what centers should I run my rebar? I was thin

Here in NE Minnesota, it gets down to 40 below or a little colder in an average winter. For an unheated garage, it is almost impossible to prevent some hairline cracks. If you're going to heat the ga

It gets cold here, but not -40º. And certainly no weeks on end deep freezes like you get, but the coldest I have seen it near Flagstaff Arizona where I lived was -32º with no more space to push the p

How big is this slab going to be? You WILL have cracks, the only thing you can do is control them. There is a plastic "T" strip that goes into the concrete (it's about 2"tall) and then the top peals
