To determine if a 2x12x16 ft beam can support a 6-inch thick concrete floor, you need to consider the weight of the concrete and the load-bearing capacity of the beam. A 6-inch thick concrete floor weighs approximately 150 pounds per cubic foot, totaling around 1,125 pounds per square foot. The 2x12 beam must be properly supported and spaced according to building codes to ensure it can bear this load without risk of failure. Consulting a structural engineer for specific calculations and safety assessments is recommended.

The concrete typically used for driveway construction is around 4 inches thick.
The thickness of a second-floor structure typically depends on the type of materials used and the load requirements. For wood framing, floor joists are generally 1.5 inches thick, while concrete slabs can range from 4 to 6 inches thick. Additionally, factors such as insulation, flooring, and ceiling finishes may add extra thickness. Always consult local building codes and a structural engineer for specific requirements.
It depends on how thick you want the concrete.
A concrete driveway should be at least 4 inches thick to ensure durability and longevity.
Get a nice big sledge hammer, (probably a 12lb) and go at it as hard as you can. Use a smaller hammer and chisel for the corners.
