SW MN and Gold Canyon AZ
Rebar no doubt. Everyhting Ive poured has rebar and I have very few cracks in any of it. Like some say ground prep is very important. After putting up my first machine shed I left it settle for 2 yrs before pouring concrete. I could not beleive how much it settled in those 2 yrs. Poured it knowing it would not settle much anymore but still put rebar in 2 ft squares and one ft squares where heavy loads drive on it. Very few hairline cracks in it after 2o yrs now. Concrete is something you don't skimp on.
Pretty hard to do it over if you make a mistake.
