i have never worked with beef animals on slats and i have 2 beef sheds that the slats have had it and have had a few quotes but i have a few questions

the differance between wet and dry
axel loading some say 5 t were others are 8t
what finishes would you recomend

ps is there any thing other to note
 
Wet cast generally more uniform though wouldn’t worry too much about it.
What you going to be driving over them with? If it’s only a tractor and mixing pump 5t should be enough.
I’d buy the cheapest and put rubber on the back half of pen. Just get them to guarantee gap width to be uniform and will be no problem fitting rubber.
