Concrete driveway for RV parking
So, as we are looking into our first RV (more than likely a 35-39 foot gasser) we're at the same time getting our driveway redone. We are in west central FL, which means a lot of sand for our soil....

My driveway has stored a motor home for 14 years and it is just 4" thick fiber reinforced concrete. No steel reinforcement at all. I have had heavy dump trucks on it as well as lumber trucks with no issues.
Just make sure that you put expansion joints every 10' and you should be fine. Also make sure that when you tear up the old driveway that the dirt is well compacted before you pour any concrete.
I was a licensed Florida General Contractor in Pinellas County before I retired and this is what I did when I built this house. You can spend more if you want to and make it thicker if you want to, but there is really no need.
Our soil in Florida is very solid and you do not have to worry about all of the issues that they have in cooler climates and soil with a lot of clay.
PS - any recommendations for someone to do the driveway?
