I'm having a hard time getting an estimate on a machine-shed floor. ("We'll get back to you in a week or so....") The shed is in southern Minnesota. It is only a few years old and in great shape. It is the typical pole frame with metal sides and roof and a crushed-rock floor. It measures 40x72.
My question: Assuming a level floor, how much should I expect to spend for a 40x26-foot x 6-inch slab in one end of the shed? I know additional rock fill and compacting would add to the cost, and it might require some wheel-barrowing to get the mud into the far corners. I don't mind an estimate that's off by even low thousands. I'm just wondering about the basics: rebar, mesh, concrete and labor. I know sight-unseen is hard to do, but I would be grateful for ANY educated guesses you might offer on a 40x26 with 6-inch reinforced concrete. (I can provide more info if needed.)
