|
|
|
|
1. Engagement plan | Develop an engagement plan with specific requirements |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| relating to the proposed installation site. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Site visits | Schedule site visits on mutually acceptable dates, during |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| normal HP business hours. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Test equipment | Document any test equipment used in the customer report. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Installation site | Review and discuss the proposed installation site with the |
|
|
|
|
|
|
review | customer. This initial review includes physical examination of |
|
|
|
|
| |
| the proposed installation site and, at the sole discretion of |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| HP, can include physical measurements of the area size and |
|
|
|
|
| |
| clearances. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Indoor/outdoor | Identify whether the HP POD 20c installation is indoors or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
installation | outdoors as this can affect the degree and type of |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| infrastructure required and the mounting needs. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Site pad | • Inspect the proposed installation site to assess |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| compliance with the HP POD 20c mounting |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| specifications. Ensure that the customer is fully aware of |
|
|
|
|
| |
| the following requirements: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| • Proper support capabilities must exist. If the customer |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| intends to edge or point load on the utility and cargo |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| ends, there must be support in the center to prevent |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| deflection. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| • Upon installation, the POD structure must be leveled to | ≤ |
|
|
|
|
|
| 0.5º, which can be checked at that time with a surveyor’s |
|
|
|
|
| |
| transit. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| • Shimming is allowed around the perimeter of the POD. |
|
|
|
|
| |
| • Place shims in increments across the length of the HP |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| POD 20c to ensure that the HP POD 20c is level. If |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| significant shimming is required, shims should be spaced |
|
|
|
|
| |
| no less than 1.2 m (4 ft) apart to ensure sufficient load |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| transfer. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Materials and | Visually inspect the materials and construction at the |
|
|
|
|
|
|
construction | proposed installation site to identify issues that can impact |
|
|
|
|
|
|
inspection | the HP POD 20c installation. Verify that the area is adequate |
|
|
|
|
| |
| for truck delivery, staging, and crane location. |
