3. It is recommended to build foundation approximately 3 inches (76 mm) larger overall than
the pump baseplate to provide ample anchorage for the foundation bolts.
3.1. Since water can accidentally flow in the floor, a height for the surface of the
foundation of 4 inches (100 mm) at least above floor level is recommended.
4. Use a template to accurately locate foundation bolts according to the General Arrangement.
4.1. Choose foundation bolts of size specified in drawing (ASTM A36, M 1020 and ASTM
A575 are recommended); they should be long enough to allow a minimum of two
threads above the nuts.
5. Provide pipe enclosures for the bolts, which are three or four diameters larger than the bolts.
6. Protect area around the bolts from contact with the concrete.
7. Pour the concrete and provide a chamfer at all corners.
8. Allow concrete to cure completely (at least seven days) before preparing the surface for
grout preparation.
