 Support Piping, Equipment and Accessories 

RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH

Using the basin to support any loading carried or created by 

piping, equipment, cribbing, bracing, or blocking is never 

permitted.

Provide support for piping, equipment, and other accessories 

during backfilling. During backfilling, temporary support must be 

carefully installed and removed to prevent damage to the basin, 

piping, and/or equipment.

 Anchorage

When basin installations are located in areas subject to high water 

tables or flooding, make provisions to prevent the basin, either 

empty or filled, from floating. The buoyancy force to be offset is 

determined primarily by the volume of the basin. The principle 

offsetting factors include:

Backfill materials

Concrete hold-down pad

Friction between the basin, backfill materials, and 

surrounding soil

1”

3/4”

1/2”

1/4”

30º maximum

Lifting cable or chain

Spreader bar

FINISH GRADE

Optional lifting lugs

Slope and size of excavation as per 
OSHA and engineer’s specification.

In the absence of these,

consider condition of soil, depth of 

excavation, and safety considerations.

Basin anti-flotation flange

Compacted sub-base and/or concrete
slab as per engineer’s specification

FINISH GRADE

12” minimum backfill compacted to a minimum 
soil modulus of 700 lbs per sq ft

Fiberglass basin as required 
per engineer’s specification

Backfill material

Concrete grout as required 
per engineer’s specification

CAUTION

:

HANDLE WITH CARE

Do NOT drop
Do NOT impact
Do NOT roll
Do NOT wrap cable or 

chain around basin

Compacted sub-base minimum 12” or 6” 
when used with concrete hold-down pad

Adjacent structure, foundation, 
footing, or property line

In the absence of building codes or 
regulations, maintain a minimum distance 
of 5 feet plus a slope of 45° from the 
bottom of the compacted sub-base to the 
bottom of the adjacent structure’s 
foundation, footing, or property line.

NOTE:

 The intent of these installation instructions and illustration is to ensure that damage or 

premature failure to the basin does not occur. These installation instructions and illustration are 

not

 

intended to preclude normal safety procedures that should be followed to prevent injury to personnel.

SAFE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES ARE ENTIRELY THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INSTALLER
