• The backfill must provide sufficient support of the pit on all
sides and ensure that the load can be transferred without
detrimental point impacts or similar impacts.
• The backfill material must be compactable gravel or sand with
an even particle size. The maximum particle size is 32 mm.
The backfill material must not contain any stones larger than
the maximum particle size.
• The backfilling must be carried out so that the pit is not
damaged or deformed.
• The backfill must be compacted in layers of maximum 50 cm.

In pits with diameters of 2.0, 2.2 or 3.0 m, with outlet
pipes above DN 150 and with two holes in the bottom
of the pit, fill the hollow space below the bottom of
the pit with concrete to avoid vibrations. See fig.
