As someone else said, your soil may determine your pour. Similar to painting over loose paint, if you don"t match the reinforcing/thickness/etc to the soil conditions, you may have problems. After that, I usually will take my concrete sub"s recommendations and balance them with my own experience/education. (But I have also had the same sub now for about 10 years, so we know each other well). They have a very good feel for the site conditions as well as what supplier they will be using, and that sometimes will change how we place reinforcement. I doubt you will ever get a no-crack guarantee, and if you do, be wary. Shrinkage cracks will occur, but structural ones shouldn"t. The common guarantee in concrete being "it will get hard, it will crack, and no one is going to steal it." Good luck
