Having talked to Atlas more than once, I no longer wish to pursue concrete questions with them, I'm more after concrete guys here with more input. But, alas, while on the couch just now I had an epiphany. I do not believe I can move it. See, to be 12" from the anchor holes (epoxy filled or...

Hey guys, I have a two post lift on 4" 4500PSI concrete with wire mesh in it. This was poured new well over a year ago for my garage build. Now with more lift use time on my belt, I really would like to move my lift. I am 2' from the edge of the pad now, I want to remain at the same spot...

Atlas PV-9P. My son and I putting it together. Distance to true 12' ceiling. Drywall should be fun :D Done.

I came up real short on the far wall, like more than a foot. Do see other wise? I counted 15 squares from footing to edge.

Not only has it been poured, it's 8 weeks old and cured nicely. Verbatim : Contractor : Where do you want the lift ? Me : 3 feet from the south wall and 10 feet from the west wall. In the photo above, I am facing west.

Something happened up there in the past few replies, and I have no idea what ... I have 4" deep with wire mesh in it. I can not say if my concrete guy put my footings for my lift in the right spot. I believe he used wire mesh that has 6" squares in it, leading me to believe, based on...

My slab is 4" thick. Atlas says 3" @ 3000 PSI minimum, but I always read advice to go over that by more than I have.

Ok they appear to be 6" squares, so I'm ok with the distance from the left wall but I'm screwed on the far wall. 7 1/2" is not enough. Can I drop this this anywhere given the strength and depth of my concrete ?

I've been told they used 4" square wire? I see three squares so that's 12", then the 12" footings would make it two feet from left wall. That's cool, I can go with that.. I believe I see 14 squares to the far wall with the footing wouldn't that be 5 feet ?!!

I asked my concrete guy to put my footings 10' from one wall and 3' from the other. I was unable to measure these footing myself before the pour. Can anyone tell if they followed those directions? If they did not, Can I anchor my 9000# Atlas PV-9P anywhere in my 6 bag 4500PSI concrete...

I'm not broke and I did see a lot local. I just found a free solution. And I just can't buy one...more...thing. We're not finished building and I need to refocus of spark,gas,walls and doors.

Got it. Trailer = No vehicles with a hitch. Box truck was very economical. Time for garage toys, now that the exterior is done. http://www.gregsmithequipment.com/Atlas-PV-9P Atlas PV-9P. I drove a Uhaul to work. I got free shipping by having it sent to my workplace (Business Address...

This could get ugly. I have two guys and a very sturdy 3x3 dolly. Old Dominion will ship it to my Plant, I can use a fork lift to get it in to the less than ideal Uhaul Cube Van. Then I have to get it out of that at home. I do not have access to a Cherry Picker or any Machinery. I...

Been working on my garage build since April of this year. 3 month delay on my concrete. Guy is calling to schedule me this coming week...for the only two days this week it's going to rain.
