[QUOTE="CHASMAN9, post: 632510, member: 307"] Why do you say a footer and block is better? Just asking for opinions sake. A monolithic slab is done all by one trade and is more economical than pouring a footing, buying the header blocks/ sand/ mortar and paying a mason to come build it and hopefully they pulled the strings right and lay the block straight. Then get your concrete crew to rake out the stone and pour into place. All this for a flat shop slab. I agree that on a step down footing(down a slope) that the block method is the only way to go, but if the grade is lessen like in JD's shop location picture, pour the whole thing monolithically and be done. thumb.gif [/QUOTE]
