Fillers
Fillers over 6.5" wide
Job-built fillers over 6.5" wide
require steel rails at each tie
hole elevation to support the
filler. The maximum filler width
is determined using the table
in Fig.31.1.
The job-built filler must be
designed and constructed
to resist the intended loads.
Tensile load transfer must be
considered when fillers are
located near bulkheads or
outside corners. Additional
fasteners, bracing, or struts
may be required.
