In regions with sandy soils meeting the requirements noted and where the subgrade elevation is above the groundwater table, imported base materials maynotbeneeded.(Formoreinformationseespecificationsection2.03A.)

For all units larger than a Single R-Tank®, you will need to disassemble the R-Tank®inordertocuttheinteriorplates.ReassembletheR-Tank® when cutting is completed, and replace the R-Tank®intotheproperlocation.

Install the pipe into the R-Tank®unit.

Seal the opening on top of the pipe with a cap or temporary lid to prevent debrisfromenteringthesystem.

Maintenance Ports:Typicallymadefrom12”Schedule40PVCpipe(checkplansforactualsizeand type of pipe), cut the pipe to length, leaving enough excess to trim the topwhenfinalgradeisreached.

Using your reciprocating saw, cut several 8” triangular notches into the bottomofthepipeasshownonplans(Fig.14).Drillseveralairventsintothe pipe just below where the top of the R-Tank® will be once the pipe is installedintothetank.

IMPORTANT: Do not over-cut the R-Tank®plates.Minimizethe gaps between the pipe and the R-Tank®plates. Thisisparticularlyimportantwiththetopplate.

TIP: If using Prefabricated Pipe Boot Kits, install them onto the pipe now, leaving the band clamps loose so that finaladjustmentsmaybemadeinStep7.

TIP: If the location of Maintenance Ports is not shown on your plans,includeaportwithin10’ofallinletandoutletpipes (a single Maintenance Port can cover multiple pipe connections), and include additional Maintenance Ports as needed to prevent the distance between ports fromexceeding50feet.

Regardless of what method is selected to secure the installation, it must remain in place until construction activity has concluded and no further accessofvehiclesexceedingtheHS20standardisnecessary.
