manhole on the cross beams. Figure 3-9 shows the metal sheeting used on a EZ-SR truck scale installation.
Figure 3-9. Metal sheeting example.
Secure the corrugated metal sheet to the manhole frame by installing 12 sheet metal screws (or tack weld)
around base of manhole frame.
When pouring concrete, make sure that concrete is poured over the overlap not into the overlap.
3.6 Deck Rebar
Concrete deck reinforcing consists of installing #5 rebar on 12" centers at the locations shown on the drawing
along with using standard construction practices.
At the installer’s discretion, rebar may or may not be tied together.
The first (bottom) layer of rebar installation consist of positioning 6'-3" rebars perpendicular to the main beams and
on 1-1/2" chairs (bolsters) located on top of the corrugated sheet metal. On top of this rebar layer, a second layer
(70' rebar) is installed perpendicular to the first layer and parallel to the main beam.
The third layer will be the 2' rebar placed on chairs. On top of these will be another layer of 70' rebar running the
length of the frame assembly.
The final two layers will require installing 9'-4' rebar on the appropriate chairs. On this will be the top layer of 70'
rebar.
