Concrete:

1) Mark the concrete with the location of each bolt hole;

2) Drill 13/16in. (~2.1cm) holes in the concrete approximately 6in.
deep (locations shown as X’s in the diagram above);

3) Press/tap the anchor sleeves into the drilled holes until they
are at least flush with the road surface or slightly lower.

4) Align the holes in the speed hump with the holes drilled into
the concrete surface. Slide a washer onto each lag bolt; then
insert a bolt into each bolt hole and tightly fasten the bolts to the
anchors.

Inspections & Maintenance

At least once per month:

 Closely inspect each section of the speed hump for damage (cracks, splits, etc.). If any section is cracked or split,
replace it.
 Try to wiggle the sections of the speed hump to evaluate the soundness of the connections between anchor bolts and
anchors, as well as between the anchors and the road/surface. If the speed hump can wobble, i.e. separates from the
road/surface, determine whether each connection is loose. Tighten loose connection(s) and apply more butyl tape to the
bottom of the loose section. It might be necessary to either fill a hole(s) in the concrete with epoxy or move the speed
hump to another location, if the bolt and anchor can slide free of the concrete.
 The speed hump incorporates yellow highway tape to provide a sharp contrast with the surface/road. Wipe dirt and
other filth from the surface of the speed hump, and particularly from the highway tape to maintain contrast.
