Pouring concrete floor in pole barn.

The concrete is considered to float because it is totally independent of the building. I recommend a standard 4 floor for most residential pole buildings. If the walls are open or you have sliding or overhead doors you can use a 2 4 as a form. Labor cost for concrete slab.

If you are just storing toys lawnmowers and cars in the pole barn then 4 of concrete will more than suffice. Concrete slabs are poured either off or on the job site. There can also be a delivery fee of 60. To have concrete poured and finished it will cost 2 52 to 2 60 per square foot for the labor and 2 83 to 3 57 per square foot for the concrete itself.

If you have a cherry picker for motors or you plan on storing something very heavy then 5 or 6 floor will hold up better. I would use a concrete saw to cut out two foot by two foot squares at each column location remove the concrete auger holes as appropriately designed by the building engineer set the columns in the hole per the plans then form and fill with premix around the top of the column to complete the slab.

If a thicker floor is desired excavate below skirt board bottom by any slab thickness greater than 4. The cost of labor to pour concrete is 45 per hour. This can prevent damage caused by a pre mix concrete truck.
