5.1.2 Use concrete only for the foundation pad. Do not use substitute materials, such as
reinforced plastics, since they lack the rigidity required for cabinet placement.
5.1.3 The recommended concrete pad size is two feet (60.96 cm) beyond the perimeter of
the cabinet, including the radius of any open doors.
• Concrete pad dimensions: 48.00" x 35.31" (121.92 cm x 89.69 cm)
5.1.4 The overall dimensions of the pad mounting template: 28.00" x 18.00" (71.12 cm x
45.72 cm).
5.1.5 Use a minimum of six inches (15.24 cm) of sand or gravel as a base for the
foundation pad. This will level the location to accept the pad.
Refer to Fig. 10 for the arrangement and size of the reinforcing mesh and the
template in the form prior to pouring concrete.
Use a high-early strength concrete mix so the cabinet may be placed three days
following concrete pouring. Coarse aggregate used in the concrete shall be graded
from
3
/
4
-inch (19 mm) to No. 4 only.
The compression strength of the concrete must be a minimum of 4000 psi as
determined by ASTM C39 test of compression strength of concrete cylinders.
The slump of the concrete shall be 2 (50.8 mm) to 4 inches (101.6 mm) as
determined using ASTM test method C143.
The arrangement of the reinforcing mesh and the template in the form prior to
pouring concrete is shown in Fig. 10.
