What's the slab for, that isn't a foundation slab is it? Following the water stains, it is built to drain, so it must be for parking something on. And it has a broom finish rather than a trowel finish, no plumbing. What is it?

Next to my place of employment.... the shadow is what we will be storing on it.

Its an addition.... we ran out of room and had to grow some.

32 yards... $3,500

32 cubic yards? That can't be square yards. You guys must have poured it yourselves if you are paying by the cubic yard.

That doesn't add up either way.

Scenario #1: 32 cy x 36/6 = 192 sy x 9 = 1728 sf at 6 inches thick. No one would pour that job for $2.00/sf

Scenario #2: 32 sy x 9 = 288 sf. That would be $12.15/sf, which is way too high.

I don't get it.

I wrote the check out for $3586.68 and the guy told me we got 32 yards...

It was took 4 trucks to dump it all.

Okay, 4 trucks with 8 yards would be 32 cubic yards. But, concrete there has got to be selling for $55 to $65 per cubic yard. That only leaves the dude making about $1500 to set it up and pour it.

How big is the slab, do you know the dimensions. 25 feet by 20 feet?

Labor is seperate... brother-in-law type deal.. a seperate company framed it up and worked it. We bought the concrete straight from the dealer.
