6. Instructions to concrete ground sockets:
The following sketch will help you to concrete the ground sockets.
Note:
Do not apply an acceleration mixture or antifreeze as these adhesives may cause
damages of the sockets. After setting of concrete insert uprights in ground sockets.
Sketch: Example for the installation of ground sockets
The sketch indicates standard field dimensions and net execution, distance of uprights
11 m. Dimensions have to be checked and adapted depending on the local situation
This is a standard Volleyball unit with 1 mechanical and 1 counter upright. In case of
multiple field units further fields are attached from one side or both sides by using central
uprights.
During tensioning of the net the uprights deform to the field centre. We recommend
to concrete ground sockets negative-going by about 1° declination to the outside.
These deformations are no defects and disappear when the tension is released.
