Hi Norm,
I guess we have a misunderstanding here. I wasnt suggesting nor would I build a building on just a 4" slab. The edges on my shop/ garage are 16" thick for the first 24" in. (hence "thickened edge slab") Just a 4" slab in Vermont without any frostwall or thickening would have a shorter life expectancy than the guy going over Niagara fall. There is NO fighting frost. Either go below it or build heavy enough to float on top of it. Drainage and sub slab preparation are almost more important than what is poured.
Tim
