Stiffy, have you got an area of the slab (where hoist is going) that is the required thickness?
And if so are they going to set the floor mounting bolts in the concrete or are you going to dyna bolt it down?

Hoist
Boxhead,
the plan is for 3 x 4 posters (2 for storage and one on casters) the 2 poster will be set by dyna bolts. The slab is 150mm and 25MPA.
The inspector is going there today to look at the footings (then the slab company are DOING THERE STUFF). All is under control.

Glad to hear that was organised, would hate to see you try to drill holes for dynabolts only to drill through the slab

And if you want some extra special attention to quality, don't forget those green inducement packages too!!
The standard trades rate of pay - and now it seems Bathurst has made parity on this issue too!!

Stiff,
Its form up the slab
Looking good - hope the rain stays away.
Switch to 40MPA and you'll be right - just may need an extra labourer or two

25mpa
PCC,
It is 25MPA X 150MM thick, 
The 2 poster is in the middle of one of the footings therefore it will be in
500mm of concrete...... SAFE.....

I prefer 8"
PCC,
One layer of F92 plus the stuff in the footings.
You seem to know a bit about concrete, are you in the game??
