For a 2100 lb. module place the Unicore on the bottom shelf (.5”); fill to the scribe mark
(FILL TO TOP FOR 1400# + 2100#) resulting in a 35.5” sand depth and no void at top.
Note:
Orient the zip strips towards oncoming traffic. A grazing impact now hits only side of the
module. This leaves the zip strips and other side of the module intact, reducing cost of
replacement parts and making for less clean-up (See Figure 6B).
10) Filling the barrels
Once the first row of modules (last row in array) is in place, they can be filled with the
proper level of sand using a sand-filled cement truck (See Figure 7).
Figure 7
The sand must conform to ASTM C-33 (washed concrete sand or equal). The level is
indicated on the decal located on the inside of the module. Fill heights marked on the
decal are based on a sand density of 1600 kg/m3 (100 pcf). For other densities, see the
“Fill Height” charts in Figures 8 and 9.
Caution:
During the filling process, it is very important that the modules are
filled with the proper level of sand. Refer to Figures 8 and 9, which show the
correct Fill Heights for the sand.
