"Remember....good concrete is made with water, cement, aggregates and some admixtures/enhancement.....bad concrete is made of the same stuff! " - Isnt that the truth!
Well, now you have me thinking the fiber (poly) mesh might be the better option...as you are correct that the wire mesh is very...
Ron, thank you very much, the sentence: " Keep in mind that "private" roads might well become "public" roads in the future." tells me your in the same line of work!
When you said: "If you want to add fiber, it won't hurt...just don't let the contractor use it at a crutch to be sloppy with the...

Hehe, thanks blueoak. The first site is the site I have used before and is pretty good. Just wondering if there was a better one...
Reason I posted this is because a local Eng firm stated an area over here got 5.5+ (5.61 total I think) inches in 24-hours. The dnr site give me a max of about...
Thanks everyone for the information, but I am looking for the ACTUAL rainfall depths at any given time.
For example, we just had MAJOR storms last week. I would like to find a website where I can look and see exactly how much rain fell in a specified amount of time. For example, Aurora...
Hehe, I'm just had the same problem. This website has helped me out tremedously (sp?).
