3.3.3 Re-leveling, Securing, Grouting, and Grounding the Base

1.

Re-level the mount using leveling lugs. You might have to move the base
plate around or adjust the leveling bolts to reach the proper horizontal
alignment of the base plate and retaining plate. A perfectly level system
will minimize side loads and bending moments.

2.

Remove the blocking for the particular mount so that the platform and
scale deck I-beam are resting solely on the mount.

3.

Install all the other mounts in the system in the above manner before
bolting and grouting the base plates. After all the mounts are in place,
remove all other blocking and remove the platform wedges making sure
it is still centered in the pit. If not, then re-wedge and adjust the mounts as
necessary. When you are sure that the platform is at the final height and has
the proper clearance, then proceed to anchor the base plates.
