Table 2-2. Drawing Dimensions
• Use concrete of minimum yield strength
5,000 PSI or six bag mix.
• Allow seven days to cure (wet concrete
periodically during this time).
• Dimensions shown assume firm, stable
soil conditions. When soil conditions are
not adequate, place foundation at
sufficient depth.
• In wet or washdown applications, it is
recommended to use hermetically sealed
load cells and the junction box be
mounted remotely in a dry location.
• Wire mesh to have a minimum 0.75 in
cover bottom and sides.
