Remove grass and top soil or you will see differential settlement. May crack the slab. Compact with jumping jack. Run field proctor via DOTD 15-B. Shoot density test with nuclear gauge. Passing is 95 % compaction at 13% moisture. Proof roll with pneumatic double axle truck with 15 tons. Insure proper subgrade modulus.
Then pour concrete at a 3-5 inch slump.
