Does concrete adhere even though it is galvanized and smooth? Also wondering if a 5cm thick layer of concrete is sufficient in my basement.

The coverage layers should be x number of cm if you mean the foundation slab. 6 mm reinforcement mats might be enough for sheep netting instead ;D

It turned into a quick enclosure build one evening, a bit unplanned let's say.
