Following module final positioning, the gussets are no longer needed and are covered by the final concrete pour.

2.8 Temporary Setting Blocks (Concrete Deck)
When the deck is level with the approaches, the finished scale has 5 7/8" clearance between the bottom of the
weighbridge and the concrete foundation. Most installers use setting blocks that are approximately 5 1/2" high
for the initial placement and connecting of the deck modules. Shims are used to level the scale and raise it flush
with the approach bulkhead. Setting blocks are only used in the corners of the modules where the load cell mounts
are installed. The corners that do not have load cell mount locations do not require setting blocks.

Figure 2-5 shown for 18" foundation profile.
When placing modules on setting blocks, place blocks in locations close to but not at pocket (to allow room for
mount).
