<br />GENERAL NOTES AND TABLES

<br />Notes for Tables 2 and 2.1
<br />~l;nilllum I-Beam pier ~paclng as shown in Table 2 above for n'led size footing pads, or adjusted to
<br />larger area footing pads based on loads in Table: 2.1. For either case, the maximum I-Beam pier
<br />spa.::ing IS S'-O" for lr' I.beam chasSis. 10'..0" for IO"I.Beam and 12'.0" for 12" I-Beam chassis.
<br />Penmeter pll'r spacing as ShO'oVll in Table 2, or adjusted to larger tooting pads per loads in Table 2.1,
<br />hut In no case greater t~an 8' -0".
<br />When perimetc:r piers are required. additional piers must be inslalled along the mating line of
<br />multiple section units \\:hcre mating walls exist. Piers are not reqwred in open span areas_ \\'here
<br />mating walls exist on one section onl)'..lhe maximum spacing is the same as the perimeter spacing as
<br />determined in J and 2 above. Where mating walls are dira:t.Iy opposile to each other (one on each
<br />section), tire maximum spacing is half the perimeter spacing, or as detennined for combined loading
<br />in table 2,1 above. These piers arc in addition to the piers located at open span area columns.lsee also
<br />Secuon 4)
<br />The distance between any adjacent piers may deviate from tile listed spacing by 10%. so long as the
<br />overall average distance between piers is eqU:llto or less than the listed spacing,
<br />See footer details in Section 2 for double footer configurations.
<br />For 2xlO min, Iwnber footers. use pier spacing tabulated in the 16xl6x4 column. Refer also to
<br />lumber footer configu....ltions and re'.quirc:~nts in Section 2 of this manual.
<br />All the above requiremenl'i must be adhered to when a min. 4'" thick slab is installed, For pier
<br />spacing on the slab, the double 16xl6x4 column may be used, The slab may count as the bottom
<br />layer of required pads as shown in Section 2. Special designs are required for slabs located in area.s
<br />prone to frost heave, Special designs are also required for 'ribbon' footing designs.
<br />For 500 PFS soil. size the footing according to the pier load table in Section 4,
<br />Example for using Alternate Tables 1,1 and 2.1: alternate pad desired has 1800 LBS bearing capacity

<br />NOles: 1, Footers for loads exceeding 10.OOOLBS, or for the condition indicated by'.', require double stacked
<br />block piers (see pier 'B' and pier 'C.).
<br />2. 16x32x4 fooler consists of double stacked 16x 16x4_ See footer details.
<br />~. For douhle 2x 10 min, lumber footings, use the loads tabulated for 18xl8x4 footers,
<br />4, These footing loads are also applicable when an equal thiclcnells of slab is installed.
<br />5. Premanut'actured footers may ahemali vely be used within the terms of their approval and max. load capacity,
