Well, if you use the standard of 150#/cf for concrete. Then 240'X97'X1' = 2,380 cf X 150 = 3,492,000 lbs. Dividing that by 2,000 gives you 1746 tons.

well according to the plans it has 1' rebar through it spider webbed. So looks like if I get the bid I'll be renting/buying a Concrete Crusher attachment.

Don't forget the swellage factor especially if it is a slab on grade.
