Concrete Repair Across North Syracuse's Post-War Streets
If the driveway two doors down went first, yours is probably on the same clock. More than half of North Syracuse was built between 1940 and 1969, one generation of flatwork poured to one specification, and that changes what is worth doing now.

NRMCA's guidance for concrete that will be continuously moist, exposed to freezing temperatures and subject to de-icing chemicals is to order exterior slabs at a specified strength of 4,000 psi, consistent with ACI 332, the code for residential concrete, and to reduce that to 3,500 psi only where the concrete will not be continuously moist or where de-icing chemicals will not be applied. It calls for air-entrained concrete with a recommended total air content of 6 percent for concrete containing 3/4 inch or 1 inch coarse aggregate, and a slump of 3 to 5 inches with no excessive water added at the jobsite.

Same street, same year, same problem

Why North Syracuse drives fail street by street
55.3 percent of North Syracuse went up between 1940 and 1969, on a median build year of 1959, which means whole streets here are the same age, the same width and the same original mix. When one drive starts flaking the neighbors are usually close behind, and that is useful rather than depressing: it tells you the cause is specification and exposure rather than anything you did. It also sets the one condition worth insisting on. A replacement poured to the same recipe as the 1959 slab it replaces will do the same thing again, so the numbers belong in writing before anyone pours: 4,000 psi for a slab that stays damp and gets salted, 6 percent air for the 3/4 or 1 inch stone this work uses, a slump of 3 to 5 inches, and no water added to the truck at the jobsite. All four are checkable against the delivery ticket, and the last one is what gets given away for an easier pour.
