is there a code violation if concrete casting will be done with vertical construction joint? is it structurally sound not to pour monolithically?
also, what are the measures to apply in achieving quality concrete and if permitted, construction joints?

With proper planning, a six foot thick slab is not unusually difficult. Even in hot climates, concrete temperature and other mass concrete issues can be properly controlled by careful selection of mix design, using chilled water / flaked ice in the mix, placement at cooler time of the day (night), timely concrete delivery, etc.
