We have an old driveway (28' x 8"7") that has sunk towards the house at least 6 inches. The driveway had 10 mil re-bar drilled into the house but has since then has just pulled out (or bent or broken off) as the driveway sunk.
We want to remove the driveway and replace it with new concrete.
1) Should we use concrete piles (3 to 4) or should we use thicker re-bar dowelling (3/4") "epoxied" into holes drilled into the foundation?2) Should I have the base (1' or so) under the present driveway removed and replaced with a more stable base?
3) What type of base should be used?4) Any ideas/comments/advice?
