How long before I can drive over concrete?
 

Evening All,

We have just had the drive paved, and there is a small patch that was
concreted at the mouth of the drive. It's about 12" wide and about 2" to
3" deep. This was concreted yesterday morning.

Can I run the car over it tonight?

cheers

Mike

Will your driving licence allow it?

Should be OK, but I would be inclined to put some boards across it
where the tyres will run to reduce the point loading a bit.

How wide are your tyres? How far apart are they? Will you 'hit' this foot
wide concrete?
It's two-three inches deep- but how long is it?

It's not a bad idea to leave concrete to 'cure' - harden by internal
chemical reaction- for as long as possible' When I had a water pipe trench
work done- I was advise to leave it for three days before parking the car
over it.

I would wait at least 48 Hrs.

And keep soaking it with water during that time - it doesn't cure by drying.

Depends if it's still wet and he turns out to have been driving a "track
laying vehicle"
