abilene has quite different soil then we do in houston. So to quote Flem "that's not how i would do it" but I don't live in abilene. 4" is what a house/garage are, but places like firelanes at apartments are 6 or 7" since they are made to park firetrucks on.

On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"
Cracks especially suck once weeds and other foliage try to grow through. I think alot of it has to do with what type of soil base/foundation you pour on like Jerry said. At my parents place we have cracks in sections of the driveway slab because the soil base eroded underneath.

Yea, soil is a clay mix. We are running 8in centers. They quoted us 6k for the steel and concrete work since we did the subgrade.

Do you know what size rebar is planned. My grandads driveway is only a 4" slab w/ a wire mat in it and it has done pretty well considering it has had every piece of equipment we ever owned parked on it with only a few cracks in it. It should do fine.

I know just what I'm lookin for
Thunderbird will do just fine.
finally getting it finished and outfitted. The hoist is 6in I-beam 11'hx15'l. The wood burning stove looks like a nuclear reactor.

And every shop must have an office to design and research
and if by nuclear reactor, you mean the one at chernobyl, then yes, yes it does.
