I have a 3'x8' concrete sidewalk connecting our house and garage. It is 4+ inches thick, reinforced with rebar, and it's in great shape. However, I need to raise the walkway up to improve drainage slopes.
If I poured a 2" slab on top of the existing sidewalk, would it hold up without cracking?
It would be the same size as the existing slab, so I'm not worried about different settling at the joints or anything. I'm also planning to pour new slabs on either side so it won't be able to shift side to side. I wouldn't worry if the new slab was thicker, but I've never poured a slab that thin before.
Thanks,
