From a couple of regs at Life Without Buildings....

I don't get the numbers quoted above though. The current slab being poured looks to be about 150'x150'which is 2500SY. Assuming that it is a mat footing, it would have to be 4.5 yards thick to be a monolithic pour. Even if the whole building had a mat footing with an assumed area of 5000SY then the thickness would be 2.3 yards or almost 7 FT? Does that sound right for that type of footing?

The photo shows the southern half (half!) of the ten-foot-thick RAFT slab, which will support the 35 story tower.
