Thanks for all the input fellas.  After I read what I wrote and went home yesterday I think I am going to scratch the idea of using pipe and angel iron and just build the whole thing out of wood.  I am going to sing som 4x6" in the ground and frame off of that and then deck it.  I have 9 Priefert kennels so all I am trying to do is make a deck to set them on.  It may cost nearly as much as concrete but I think I will be happier with it in the long run.  As wet as it is right now and with the existing grade I don't know when I would be able to get a tractor in there to haul dirt in and and make some kind of pad to put the concrete on.  I like the idea of the concrete squares and the shingles, I think things like that could definitely take care of their feet.  I just like the idea of them no being on the ground, less smell and less smell from the concrete. 

Craig do you have a contact with someone that sells that type of material that they use in those trailers?
