Step 1 – PREP AND EXCAVATE AREA<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n

    \n
  1. Mark the location in which the B800 Block will be installed (survey as required).<\/li>\n
  2. \n
    Excavate to the lines and grades shown on the construction drawings. Excavation may be completed using auger drilling or typical open-cut excavation. The contractor shall be careful to minimise over-excavation (unless required) or disturbance or the surrounding soils. Excavation limits around the units shall be 100mm to 150cmm beyond the edges of the DC Block unit.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  3. The bottom limits of the excavation should extend at least 6-inches (15cm) beyond the height of the B800 Block unit or regional frost depth requirement, whichever is greater (over-excavation). The bottom limits should be well compacted and flat to allow for installation of at least a 6-inchthick (15cm) crushed stone foundation (Type 2 MOT Stone) and shall be capable of supporting no less than 95 kN\/m2. Greater amounts of crushed stone will be needed in areas where over-excavation is required. The crushed stone foundation shall be compacted so as to provide a smooth, hard surface on which to place the B800 Block unit.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n \n<\/section>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n
