Pouring of rv pad
Getting ready to pour a pad for the rv. I'm thinking 12 inch deep with 6 inch of some sort of gravel(3/4 trap rock or 3/4 process)then 6inches of 4000 psi concrete with wire mesh. The rv GVW is 35,700...

I assume that you are pouring the slab to be level, or with a very slight slope for drainage. The gravel and concrete that you are proposing should work fine and, if you do your own work on the coach, it will be much more comfortable to work on with a concrete slab. The concrete will also highlight any leaks or drips that you have that might need attention. I put a steel trowel finish on my slab since I was more concerned about having a very smooth surface rather than a non-skid broom finish. Traction was not a problem for me and the smooth concrete finish is easier to keep clean. Enjoy!
I sloped it about 3inches left to right and it's 16 feet wide. Long ways I made level. X2 for working on it and seeing drips or leaks. Laying on gravel sucks. I like your idea of a smooth finish. I'm doing all the work myself but I'm going to try and hire a concrete guy for the pour and finish.
