You should use some more nail stakes to keep the edges from bowing, compact the gravel and use expansion against the existing concrete edge. Are you going to put any mesh in the slab?

Knock them pins down so you can rod, float and finish
Not sure what you got going on the front?

The front form is against concrete, 5 1/2 inches depth on the back side and all around. Will put 6 mill plastic down before the pour. Fiber will be in the mix, my concrete guy said we didn't need anything against the other joint because it will be heated. He did 60 yards on a single pour in my 48' x 72' pole building 6 years ago and no cracks or problems so far. I am not a concrete guy so he is in charge.

Looking good. Take a picture from back aways next time so we can better see what you're working with. Whats the plans for the walls? Looks a little breezy right now. lol

What is up with some posts, I assume below frost and cut off ones sit on pad? Just a lean- to as frost will heave and settle with season changes.

This 10' x 20' side of the 20' x 20' building was a drive through lean-to and the lean-to wall was sitting on the concrete that was bad so I put posts in to support the roof so I could trear out the concrete. The new 6 inch walls will sit on the new slab and support the roof when it is done.
