That's an interesting failure. Almost looks like an overlay.Life has significantly less value in 3rd world countries.

That kind of failure is actually what I'm imagining with suspect pockets in the concrete, although I do agree that looks like some sort of overlay was involved. If the pocket of loose material is large enough, I can see it just pulling a chunk out above it like that.

I worked at a shop that had a similar failure caused by trying to lift a box truck full of tires on a 9k asymmetrical lift. Boss was warned, boss was a dumbass and told us to lift it.

Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for the replies - my level of concern went up quite a bit as a result of posting this thread. So I'm glad I did
I'll post the solution here whenever that comes about - hopefully not too long from now. Seems like the best bet would be getting a concrete company other than who poured the slab to come out, and go over all the details with them on how to get this dealt with.
