it's more of a fissure
i have this broken slap under my garage. eventually, the whole thing will be demolished and rebuilt in a less shitty manner than it was originally constructed in 1947, but i digress
i want to mitigate the effects of this crack on using the garage for rolling things around in it, like dollys, and other things with small wheels that don't like discontinuous surfaces (car jacks, my feet, ya know...)
budget is "as cheap as possible"
i'll need at least 6 months of service.
options i'm considering:
-grout/concrete. it'll crack again, but at least i can roll stuff easily-ish over it
-fill with some combination of gravel i can compact. pea gravel? decomposed granite? a non-rigid option is appealing because i can just jam more in there as the crack continues to change
here is the crack with my hand in it. ~4" deep
here you can see it largely cleaned out, before i thought "hey, i should see what fun ideas BARF has!" but after i'd already put stuff back in the garage
here is what it looks like partly cleaned out, and will soon look like again
