Just a couple of days and it will be fine.
You should probably wait a couple of weeks before putting much tension on them though.

No rocks, but I had all my shop tools.
Also had quite a bit of lead..... and brass.....and heavy wall tapered steel tubing mounted to walnut...... and all the stuff that goes with it.

So I rolled the uhaul across some Cat scales today and it was 20080#. 8000 of it was on the front axle. Truck empty weight is 13140.

Good thing I left a bunch of saws back in Kansas I would of been over weight.

Most of what we mowed was decent alfalfa, tree foil & orchard grass.

That Will make good feed

 

[Cat 525]

My shop floor set for two weeks before I drilled and put in the anchors. Used 1/2 x 6 for it in 4500 psi. And for what it worth Diablo rebar demon bits are where its at.

Generally, as comparison, they’ll let house foundations cure for 2-4 weeks. My shop floor is 4inches. I let it cure for 2 weeks before I started drilling it for bolts. But Jason is correct. You can drill and put anchors in at 2-4 days. Just don’t put them under tension.
