I need to pour a pad for my H4, I think I am going to make it 6'x8'.   Five inches thick except where I have 2 six inch sewer and drain pipes coming up out of the ground and I think I will only make it about 2 inches thick there. And let the back of the hardy hang over the lower part.  What do you all think??

When I had my H2, I poured that slab with a 2x8 slot recessed in the slab under the back of the hardy.

The two 6" pipes are taking up a lot more room than I thought.

I think I would pour it all the same and just pour around the 2 six inch drain pipes

It doesn't look like there is a lot of room back there to work , is the reason I was going to drop down.

On the H2 I only had one six inch pipe coming up , now I have two and they are side by side.  I think I should have spaced them. but is too late now.

Do you put wire mesh and rebar in your pads?  I can't remember what I did 12 years ago. It did not crack.

Plan on pouring the slab Friday, I am waiting on the son in law to catch up,  we need to pour our slabs at the same time. Concrete company has a 2 yard minimum.  I hope houses a half mile apart count as one delivery...
