Hello WFO's
I've been reading the forums and I feel I am well equipped to start a new corner build for a 42" oven w/ outdoor kitchen.
I am looking for input on building on an existing patio/slab.
The slab was poured on very hard clay, with 8" footers poured. There is approx. 6" of gravel fill below the slab. The slab was not reinforced with rebar.
There is a pic below.
My questions are:
Is this sufficient for the weight of the oven?
Should an additional foundation slab be poured atop the existing slab?
If not, should I drill into the existing slab to set the rebar for the frame?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I will continue to post pics of my build.
