They Made Us Pour This Shed Slab 8" Thick (Wasting Money)

#EverythingAboutConcrete #MikeDayConcrete
Eight inch thick concrete shed slab.
In this video we're pouring a concrete slab for a shed. The code enforcement in the town we're working said it had to be 8" thick.
We're not sure why a slab for a shed needs to be that thick but that's what we ended up doing.
A 4" concrete slab is plenty thick enough to support a shed as long as you have a good compacted gravel base.
There's no reason to make it thicker, it's really a waste of good money in my opinion.
