A.3 - STEP BY STEP BASE <br /> OVERVIEW Fig. A.4 <br /> Determine overall Tank Sump height based on <br /> the plans for grade level. You will then perform <br /> the following actions in order: <br /> NOTE: All steps to Abrade are inside and outside <br /> the Sump <br /> 1) Cut the minimum 2" from bottom of the Base <br /> 2)Abrade 4" up from bottom of Base, dust off, keep clean <br /> 3)Abrade 4" down from top of Tank Collar, dust off, keep clean <br /> 4) Carefully join the Base to Collar, Tape joint inside & out <br /> 5) Mix Paste with Catalyst and apply OVER the taped joint to <br /> smooth out wall transition in case of difference in Diameter <br /> 6) Fiberglass the base to the Tank Collar, Let Cure <br /> 7)Test the interstice: Pressure & Soap the Fiberglass job <br /> 8) Install your penetration fittings, Let Cure <br /> 9) Test the interstice: Pressure & Soap the Fitting areas Fig A.5 <br /> 10) Cut the minimum 2" from the top of the Base <br /> 11)Abrade 4" down from top of Base, dust off, keep clean <br /> 12) Cut the bottom of the Body to attain the necessary <br /> overall height required to reach Grade specifications <br /> 13)Abrade 4" up from bottom of Body, dust off, keep clean <br /> 14) Carefully join the Body to Base, Tape joint inside & out <br /> 15) Mix Paste with Catalyst and apply OVER the taped joint to <br /> smooth out wall transition in case of difference in Diameter <br /> 16) Fiberglass the Body to the Base and let cure Fig. A.6 <br /> 17) lightly sand, and flow-coat the joint, inside & outside, let cure <br /> 18) Test the interstice: Pressure & Soap the Fiberglass job <br /> 19) Field Air Integrity Test: 4 PSI on interstice and wait one hour <br /> before beginning test. Mark time, monitor for one hour <br /> 20) Hydrostatic Filling and Advanced Leak Detection Procedure <br /> 21) Hydrostatic Field Integrity Test: Mark liquid level and monitor <br /> one hour <br /> 22) Protect Tank Sump Reducer and Backfill <br /> A.4 - Trim the Bottom of piping sump BASE 2" from BOTTOM EDGE only using a carbide tipped <br /> blade or masonry saw. Material must be cut square with a 1/4" +/- tolerance to open the double wall <br /> space 3600 around sump. (Fig. A.4) <br /> A.5 - Abrade with air-driven sander (Fig. A.5) 4 inches up from the cut - Inside and Outside - <br /> until fiberglass surface can be seen clearly. Dust off with shop brush and keep clean. <br /> A.6 - Abrade with air-driven sander (Fig. A.5) 4 inches down from top edge of Tank Collar - <br /> Inside and Outside - until fiberglass surface can be seen clearly. (Fig. A.6) Dust off with shop brush <br /> and keep clean. <br /> 6 ii-B401-DW-SP-10A <br />
