i don't remember this when i pulled the carpet up, but there's a huge crack in the cement slab in the office, across the far corner of the house.  it looks level with the rest of the floor, but the crack itself is pretty damned wide.  oi.

This may be of some help:

You can probably skip the "frost heave" parts, I presume, but the rest is likely to be relevant. (Sure, you could just repair as is, too; but having some idea why it happened might help prevent the repair from being done again.)

OH NO. I hope you just didn't notice it, or you forgot, rather than it actually just happened. Eep.
