2 OVERVIEW You are installing 2 Major components: Dimensionally stable exterior frame with pre-drilled thread-bar holes. High yield thread-bar in a predetermined grid pattern (slab) and a heavy concentration of High Yield 100 Grade Bar around the exterior beam SITE PREP Remove organics to the hardpan, 3 to 4 wider than the building Footprint for drainage and frost protection Install A gravel min 6 to 10 thick, compact level in 4 intervals

3 Corner channels have a concentration of slotted holes on the end; refer to your permit drawings for amount of corner bars required in the corners and their position in the exterior beam Spacer channels will have splice plate holes on the ends and are installed between the corner channels Splice the corners first Overlay cee-channels to create a corner, bolt through holes and tighten

4 ASSEMBLE FORM SPLICE PLATES/BOLTS/WASHERS SPLICE EXTERIOR CHANNEL LENGTHS AS PER FOUNDATION DRAWINGS

5 BAR INSTALL SEQUENCE BEAM BAR CHAIRS SUPPORT THE LOWER AND UPPER EXTERIOR BEAM BARS SINGLE CHAIRS ARE PROVIDED FOR THE SLAB GRID FIRST: INSTALL THE BOTTOM BEAM BARS IN LENGTH (SEE PERMIT DRAWINGS SECTION A) SECOND: INSTALL THE BOTTOM BEAM BARS IN WIDTH (SEE PERMIT DRAWINGS SECTION B) NEXT: INSTALL THE SLAB GRID BARS IN WIDTH THEN LENGTH MEASURE AND LOCK IN EACH LOCATION LAST: INSTALL THE UPPER EXTERIOR BEAM BARS IN LENGTH RESTING ON THE BEAM BAR CHAIRS SQUARE FORM FIRST WIRE TIE ALL BAR CROSSES AS THE FINAL STEP

6 Be sure the return flange of the channel is flat on the ground, lift the form channel while lock tightening the nuts to be sure Install the Slab Grid before locking the width bars to ensure a more accurate measurement and create a minor tension IMPORTANT: Install the lower corner channel beam bars first, in length then in width Continue installing the grid bars and lock nuts in width Cross measure the form and square The upper beam bars are installed after all the slab grid bars

7 Install the Length bars with Lock nuts as above Measure Grid Bars in both directions to ensure grids are perfectly square Install re-bar chairs at every other bar cross, wire tie those connections after the form is squared Tighten the exterior Lock- nuts with a crescent wrench after all slab bars are installed Tape un-used beam holes from the inside

8 You have 5 levels of Extreme Strength Bar

10 Stake and line one side in length prior to re-bar installation Prior to pour check the exterior lock nuts are tight Cross measure and check for square Confirm the Level

11 Pour with Fibre-Mesh 32MPA concrete Protect the Anchor bolt threads Finish the Slab Remove the exterior nuts and Glue 2 SM to the exterior face of the form Back-Fill over the SM frost protection wings as per the Permit drawings

12 L or J BOLT ANCHORS FOR 5 SLABS LIFT THE PLATE AND HAND FINISH AROUND THE TEMPLATE POURED IN PLACE ANCHORS- NO DRILLING REQUIRED

13 WARNING!!! PROPER LEVEL PROCEDURE CORRECT CHANNEL POSITION ON LEVEL BASE DO NOT ADJUST THE CHANNEL LEVEL USING ROCKS CONCRETE WEIGHT WILL TIP AND DEFORM THE CHANNEL CONCRETE PATIO STONE BLOCK ON FLAT LEVEL FORM USE CONCRETE PATIO STONES, PAVERS, DIMENSIONAL LUMBER, ETC.

14 Re: Cap 1. Corner channels have a concentration of slotted holes; refer to your permit drawings for amount of corner bars required in the corners and their position in the exterior beam (Quantity of bars on the top slots and Quantity of bars on the lower slots) are important. 2. Spacer channels will have splice plate holes on the ends and are installed between the corner channels. 3. Splice the corners first with the splice plate and hardware provided. Hold a carpenters square to the corner and tighten the nuts/bolts/lock-washers 4. Splice the spacers to complete a solid frame. 5. Stake and line one side of the frame. 6. Install the lower corner channel beam bars first, in both directions, the upper beam bars are installed after all the slab grid bars, roughly square the frame. 7. Install the Re-Bar chairs before locking the width bars to ensure a more accurate measurement. 8. Be sure the return flange of the channel is flat on the ground, lift the form channel while lock tightening the nuts by hand to be sure. 9. Continue installing the grid bars and lock nuts in width. 10. Cross measure the form and square. 11. Install the Length bars with Lock nuts as above. Measure bar to bar in both directions to ensure grids are perfectly. Install Re-bar chairs at every other cross bar, wire tie those connections. 12. Tighten the exterior Lock- Nuts with a crescent wrench after all slab bars are installed. 13. Measure and install the upper perimeter beam bars in both directions. Interior lock nuts are only required every 2 nd beam bar. Install upper beam Re-bar chairs, wire tie all beam connections.

15 14. Prior to pour check the exterior Lock Nuts. Cross measure check for square. Confirm the Level.
