Concrete Foundation Installation
A concrete foundation pad may be constructed to elevate the machines. The concrete foundation pad must be poured, reinforced with rebar and tied to the existing floor with reinforcing bars. Refer to Figure 6, Figure 7 or Figure 8 for a typical concrete foundation pad installation.
1.Verify that the floor meets the requirements given in the Machine Foundation section.
2.Excavate the floor to a depth of approximately 9 inches (230 mm) below the floor surface, making certain that the sides of the hole slope outwards from top to bottom. The bottom of the hole should be 6 inches (152 mm) larger all around than the top.
