I would just use a dab of rubber cement and apply.

I use cement board.

And no, it's unlikely that you need a custom spec mixture, but a footing mixture is typically less expensive than a slab mixture (in part due to the amount of cement in the mix as well as additives such as fiber commonly used for slabs).  

And the year that made 5 years in undergrad worthwhile was living 10months in Florence, Italy (cementing my addiction to travel.)

Hire a high school kid to do the dirty work if you're committed.Otherwise just go over top with self leveling cement and then tile or whatever fake flooring you had planned (all I know is hardwood and tile).

Wouldn't it be ideal to have a lot with just a house, a lot of driveway parking and cement (low maintenance), a small amount of drip system w/ drought resistant plants, and a bunch of high end weed tarp underneath decorative rocks?

I would get several cans of the low expand foam for doors and windows (brand name of 'Great Stuff' is just one of them) and spray foam complete entire window bay from top to bottom.If that stays dry thru a couple cold or wet spells drywall over this area with either drywall rated as moisture proof,,,mold resistant,,, or even use cement board tile backer(that should NOT harbor mold)...Paint to match

Helps cement the concepts and shed light on the real world application of what you're learning - that made a significant difference for me when I took the exam because a good number of questions were asked in real life scenarios.

My old basement flooring was probably minimum depth cement & the hairline fractures, because of that, were enough for the hydrostatic pressure to literally push water up onto the surface.

We are,after all, a nation of cottage industries.A recent even just cemented my opnion on wholesaling.
