This may be possible if you prep the dry concrete with a latex bonding agent.
Yes, you can lay asphalt over concrete, but it's important to prepare the concrete surface properly. The concrete should be clean, free of debris, and in good condition without major cracks or damage. A bonding agent may also be applied to enhance adhesion between the two surfaces. Additionally, proper drainage should be ensured to prevent water from pooling, which can lead to issues with the asphalt layer.
Yes it can, but for heavier use, mix a bit of latex into it instead of all the water. Sweep and then dampen the surface about an hour before you lay it.
Not really a good idea. The water over time from the concrete will cause the board damage. If you use a good pad there is no reason you cannot lay the carpet over concrete.
To lay cinder blocks on a concrete pad, start by ensuring the surface is clean and level. Apply a thin layer of mortar on the concrete pad where the first block will sit, then press the block into the mortar, ensuring it is level. Continue laying additional blocks, applying mortar between them and adjusting for alignment as needed. Finally, once the blocks are set, fill the joints with mortar for added stability.

Allow the concrete to cure properly before removing the formwork. By following these steps carefully, you can lay concrete slabs effectively and efficiently.

It depends where you lay the cardboard. If you lay it on carpet it won't bounce well. If you lay it on concrete it will bounce good.
