i should get hit

[Spartan]

Bruceman I'm not laughing I'm dead serious. Like your grandfather and father I was taught the same. I was just trying to understand.

For everyone else unless you have constructive criticism - keep it to yourself. I think bruceman did a good job explaining what he would do and it makes sense. As for recommending it I was just explaining how I've always done it.
Truckster- a moment load (or a moment as a point of pressure?) vs a static load? I get it. Wanna go into youngs modulus and elasticity too? Seriously, piling on without mentioning proper ways to use jack stands on soil is counterproductive. It's what the example was about.

Brucemans example is enough for me to toss the concrete and go with a steel sandwich for the times I need to use such as a base. His argument for safety was convincing.
