    Cleaning station build?

    Going to have a 15'x24' slab poured for an enclosed deer cleaning station. It will have a 6'x6' walk in cooler & a metal structure/enclosure on it. It is going to be used solely for cleaning deer so no real heavy traffic other than backing a truck up to unload animals and possibly storing a utv.

    My question is:

    1. Is a 4" slab be thick enough to accommodate this, or do I need to go 6" or more? Obviously 6" would be better but trying to keep cost down if its not needed.

    2. Wanting to have it sloped towards the middle with a drain. Is a 4" drain line going to be large enough or should I go bigger?

    3. Epoxy or light broom finish?

    Any recommendations/tips?

    4” with fiber will be overkill. I recently built a 25 x 25 detached parking pad with a steel cover and keep a 3/4 ton diesel and a Honda Accord on it. No rebar, just fiber and it’s fine.

      Epoxy for easier cleaning.

        I'd do 4" slab and broom finish!
        I think a 4" drain would be plenty also

          #1 4'' would work if you are not going to be driving on top of it,but 6'' would be better and not cost anymore than a couple hundred dollars more.

          #2 4" drain is more than big enough unless you will be washing big chunks of meat down the drain,1 1/2'' to 2" would probably more than enough,

          #3 Epoxy finish will be slick when wet but it will be some easier and faster to get and keep clean.
