Great building srleen2. Wouldn't pass here. No wood to soil contact allowed for termite and critter intrusion. This is also part of the reason for the curb, keeps your wood high and dry. I can also hose out the building floors with out getting wood or dry wall wet. On code thoughts, I see a lot...

I think you are asking why double thickness. Some codes only require 3" thick slab and no curb. I pour 6" in the centre with a perimeter beam curb 24" from top of curb to bottom of slab.
