Concrete hardens to 600PSI (Minimum) after 24 hours. This means that 5 three grown men could all stand on a pogo stick (if that were possible) who's base covers 1 square inch without harming the concrete. You walking with shoes on exert about 10 PSI, well below anything that could damage the new pour. Just don't drag anything heavy across it, or place anything with sharp points on it.
At least 3 days
two and a quarter inches is desired for driveway for most domestic vehicles
The electrical is down at 36". It should not affect your driveway.
What should you do before driving
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton. One dumptruck will haul between 13 and 15 tons. Your driveway should take around 30 tons if covered 4" thick.
There are several things you need to do to maintain your driveway and keep it from cracking. First, remove any vegetation that is close to your driveway. Trees and bushes may send roots out that will eventually grow underneath the concrete and cause it to crack. You should also edge your driveway. Make sure your water disposal systems are kept in good working order. Water flowing under your concrete can cause freezing in the winter. Finally, use a concrete water sealant.
In Memphis, TN the cost of having a professional contractor pour concrete on a driveway averages from $5 to $9 per square foot. The addition of a sealant to preserve a driveway can cost as much as $18 per square foot in Memphis, TN.
Look both ways before you pull into the street.
The weight capacity of the concrete driveway depends on its specific design and reinforcement. Generally, a 4.5-inch thick concrete driveway can typically support up to 100-150 pounds per square foot. Therefore, with proper installation and load distribution, it should be able to support the weight of 20 tons of stone and a 3-ton delivery truck. However, it is recommended to consult a structural engineer for a precise calculation for your specific driveway.
You are required to stop for any pedestrians. Then proceed to check for traffic.
The amount of weight a concrete driveway will hold without doing damage would be determined on many factors. For instance, consolidated area of weight..ie.#'s per sq. foot, concrete strenght, amount of reinfocement in concrete, compaction of soil under concrete when placed, thickness of concrete, etc. Most driveways should be able to handle a concrete delivery truck if the drive way doesnt have any abrupt edges that truck must cross and the tires stay a reasonable distance from the edges..Hope this helped..and enjoy the pool if that is your project
