DEFINITIONS
• Concrete Pier:
A pier type surface mount installation is defined as a footing
hole that has been excavated and poured with concrete. Concrete should be flush
to the top surface of excavated hole. Equipment would then be secured to this
concrete footing that has been properly cured.
• Concrete Slab:
Existing concrete slab type installation is defined as equipment
being secured to an existing concrete pad or slab. As an example, this pad could
be in the form of an existing concrete parking lot.
