8. Lay the corrugated steel with the corrugations running parallel, down the length of

the pit.
─ The suggested material for the deck form is galvanized corrugated sheet steel

in 26 or 28 gauge thickness.

─ This material has corrugations on a 3 inch spacing (pitch) with a depth of ¾".
─ This material is NOT furnished by Fairbanks.











9. Trim the corrugated steel as required so it will rest on the lower flange of the

frame channels.

10. Cut holes for the Deck Angle

Connectors in the corrugated

steel, so it lays flush.

11. Place the deck reinforcing

steel (rebar) as shown on the
Certified Drawings.

12. Locate the optional manhole

frame(s) and shore in position

so that the cover plate(s) will

be one-eighth inch (1/8”)

above the top of the concrete.

Helpful Tip

To prevent cement from seeping under the manhole, put a 55 gallon trash bag

full with sand into the manhole frame(s) before pouring.
