Playcraft Systems recommends a loose fill material such as engineered wood fiber (as described in the CPSC) be
installed at a depth of no less than 12 in. to allow for natural shrinkage, and compression during use. A minimum 9
in. depth of compressed loose fill material described above is required for equipment with fall heights up to 6 ft.
Comparison of impact attenuating safety surfacing material is available in the “Public Playground Safety Handbook”,
Publication 325 published by CPSC. When choosing an appropriate impact attenuating safety surfacing material,
check with material manufacturer for recommended depth/thickness.
6
Never install loose fill material over concrete or asphalt.
7
The depth of the post or support must be adjusted to compensate for the depth of impact attenuating safety surfacing
material ranging from loose fill material to rubber matting.
8
This equipment is designed to be installed on a level site. Footings must be cast against undisturbed or compressed
soil. Support posts and all attached decks and play components must be plumb and level.

R5 - 06.2 INSTALLATION
Step 1
In order to properly install the support posts on your play structure, refer to the Site Safety Recommendations
in section R5 – 04 as well as the Top View and/or Site Plan drawings found in the Construction Drawings
section R5 - 02. Mark footing hole location(s) and dig hole(s) as determined. Compact base of footing hole(s)
with drain rock as specified at proper depth.
Step 2
Position the support block at the base of the footing hole. Place the support post in the footing hole at the
determined depth. The support block helps to stabilize the post during assembly and while the concrete cures,
especially in soft soil conditions.
Step 3
Plumb and square all support posts. Block and brace as required to prepare for final assembly and pouring of
concrete.
Step 4
Do not pour concrete until the structure is completely assembled, leveled and plumbed. Concrete must be
allowed to cure completely before using the structure (at least 72 hours).
