Not necessarily that many if it's the electromagnetism that is holding the concrete pavement together.
True. Good point. But the main reason why electromagnetism in concrete only need 1mm is because electromagnetism in the body had many more than 1mm. If both are equally stiff, I suspect each will yield many more than 1mm.
