Bottom CRP with Soil Plate
The Bottom CRP with Soil Plate assembly, size based on soil conditions, can be driven or
placed in an augured hole. The soil plate can be either welded or bolted to the bottom CRP
(See Figure 3).
Complete the following steps for assembling the CCT Bottom CRP with Soil Plate:
1. Lay out the three footings.
2. Punch or auger a pilot hole approximately 4’-0” [1.92 m] or deeper for the Bottom CRP
with soil plate if the post is not completely driven. Place the Bottom CRP with soil plate in
the hole. The post is to be aligned with the soil plate on the downstream side of the post.
Drive the post so that the top of the Bottom CRP does not protrude more than 4” [100 mm]
above the finished grade.
3. Backfill the hole with material in 6" [150 mm] lifts and compact to optimum compaction.
CCT Line Footings
Post Alignment
Lay out the post alignment and post spacing. Starting at post 4, post spacing for posts 4 through
9 is 6’-6” [1.98 m]. The posts will be on the center line of the cable assembly.
Terminal Line Sleeve in a Poured Concrete Footing – Posts 4 through 9
Complete the following steps for placing a line terminal sleeve in a poured concrete footing:
1. Place the end cap (PN-5837B) on the bottom of the foundation sleeve (PN-33908G) to
prevent the concrete from coming into the tube.
