30 - 40 mm of normal grout material as described
in 4.3.1.1.
b) The second layer is normal industrial concrete
poured to a level that is approximately 30-40 mm
from the top of the baseplate decking.

4.3.2
Grouting method A
a) Prepare the foundation properly as specified in
sketches below.
Template for hanging foundation bolts
The sketch illustrates a recommended foundation
bolt arrangement. Notice the large washer with
lugs at the bottom. It should be welded to the bolt
and pipe sleeve to prevent turning.
Foundation complete description
b) Build a dam around the foundation to contain
grout materials.
Before grouting, check level of
machined pads of baseplate in both directions and
perform a rough shaft/coupling alignment. Alignment
after grout has set will not be possible if above is not
satisfactorily completed.
c) Grout leveling space and baseplate as per
manufacturer's instructions.
Holes are provided in the baseplate to permit
pouring the grout and distributing. Vent holes are
also provided in each compartment. Fill under the
baseplate completely, stirring to assure proper
distribution of the grout. Check to see that the
grout flows under the edges of the baseplate
evenly.
