Walking out of my house there are two concrete slabs and a few stairs with rail leading to walkway. The 2 inch thick concrete slab yields a metal like sound when stepping on it and vibrates. The walkway has a few inches of missing backfill (can see in through void).
1. What could be causing the metal noise?
2. Lack of backfill pose any issues?

Gotta love a mystery as a property manager. Concrete sometimes has rebar. If there’s only 2 inches of concrete…good grief…that’s nothing. The void causes me to believe the following could be the case:
1. Water washed against shallow concrete pour.
2. Thin concrete had rebar;
3. Rebar rusts from water, expands and breaks up concrete
4. parts of the rusted rebar are hanging under the slab partly attached to concrete partly suspended in the void
5. when one walks on what is essentially a tiny ‘bridge’ over a void, metal plays metal like sound (not appreciated as a musical message)
6. Metal is calling you out in song: “I’m dying down here in the void. If you don’t help, I’m gonna bust your ass one day’

Maybe?
