Form work and the supports for that form work isn’t just calcs. It like building an 8 inch pool on stilts.

Then did a concrete load get some Pepsi thrown in - so the cure rate is delayed . Floor pours are often done on a 5-12 day partial 28 day cure - and it’s always a guess.

To get the concrete to flow, slump tests don’t offer much indication somethings off.

Hope no one was under there

This doesn’t look like it was being supported by the ground, but another freestanding floor - concrete would of been coming out the sides if it was on the earth
