    floor pour

    I think I may have talked myself out of radiant floor heat. The way I plan on using the shop will probably be on short notice and maybe a week or 2 a month. From what I have read it would take to long to get the temperature up on short notice. I have seen some post where some people are heating...

    Concrete slab expansion joints

    my 2 cents worth......from what I have read the cut needs to be 1/4 " deep for every 1 " of concrete. for a 4" slab cut should be 1" the nice part mentioned earlier was the t strips that have the proper depth

    floor drains

    I am sorry but I laughed out loud on the sockets comment. I doubt these drains will ever see water. The best chance would be from snow melt. I appreciate every ones thoughts.

I really don't understand some of values they are looking for. I have talked with Lithonia and decided to use there 4 foot Fluorescent Z2 lights.They referred...

    floor drains

    planning for floor drains......even though I may never need them I have decided to install 2 floor drains in my 44 x 30 garage. What would be a reasonable size pipe to run under the slab? Also, can I tie them together or run as 2 singles?

    contractor joint

    I found this product and was wondering if anyone has tried it. You press it in your pour and pull the top section off for a nice clean line. http://www.wrmeadows.com/wrm00012.htm

    whats that smell?

    This has got to have happened to others as well. Anyone ever been welding, cutting, grinding and smelled some thing burning? Yep, you guessed it. My shirt or pants or socks. Flannel really burns well by the way. It's a serious subject but others may learn from our past experiences.

    chain

    I saw something in a shop that was interesting a while back. Not that it matters, but it was on a farm and they buried a piece of heavy duty chain in the concrete before it hardened. They now have a handy anchor if you will. Might be worth considering. I think I might do something similar with...
