1. Select Option A or Option B below when encountering rock, unless there is a more
restrictive state/specifying agency specification.
Option A - If rock is encountered and 9” [225 mm] or less of the full length foundation
tube remains to be embedded.
A. Drill a 12” to 16” [300 to 400 mm] diameter hole into the rock.
B. Drill the hole 3” [75 mm] deeper than the required embedment depth.
C. Fill the hole with MSC.
D. Place the foundation tube and rebar ring per the “Sleeve in a Concrete Footing
(Poured Footing)” section.
Option B - If rock is encountered and more than 9” [225 mm] of the full length foundation
tube remains to be embedded.
A. Drill a 12” to 16” [300 mm to 400 mm] diameter hole into the rock. The minimum depth
to the bottom of the hole from the ground line shall be 21” [525 mm]. The 21” [525
mm] includes 3” [75 mm] below the tube.
B. Cut off the bottom end of the foundation tube so the top of the tube will be flush with
