Will diamond blade cut rebar

Thx for advice. Now to the other side this wall will be on 5" of rebarred concrete at least 3 ft from edge will it be safe?

Thx 4 advice looks like i've got some prep work to do!!!

The slab has been in place for years and had as many as three cars parked on it at the same time.

Would it make any difference if wall was placed 6"/1' from edge?

Want to build garage

How do you check for rebar in cured concrete?

The slab has been in place for over 10 years no cracks or prob
