Yes, incorporating steel reinforcing rebar or welded wire mesh into a six-inch thick concrete slab is strongly recommended and frequently required by building codes. A six-inch slab is designed to support heavy point loads, vehicles, or equipment; without internal steel reinforcement, the thick concrete can crack, shear, or fail under heavy stress and shifting sub-grades.
