Did you include footings for a future lift?

I wondered the same thing. I guess this way has a big advantage, you don’t have to worry about a pop up rain storm that would ruin the fresh pour

That looks great! It's a huge step. Expensive, too. Mine done same way. No exterior forming.
On a side note, we really appreciated being under roof to run PEX tubing for in-floor heat. That's time consuming.

So it's 5" fiber reinforced 4000 psi concrete. Plenty for my Maxjax and a future 4 post lift.
No pex though. I'll probably regret it later on, but I'd rather enjoy a garage with no in-floor heat now, than in-floor heat in a new garage built 5 years from now.

So I haven't even got the certificate of occupancy yet and the county was out assessing it to up my taxes. Freaking leeches.
Yep, you never really own it, just pay that annual rent. Looks good1
