Design forms for rapid, continuous, and complete filling of space to be grouted. Forms shall be strong, securely
anchored, and shored. Caulk or seal to prevent leakage.
For fluid or flowable grouts, design forms to be at least 1 inch clear of base plate or equipment base and top of form
to be at least 2 inches above bottom of adjacent base plate or higher, as required to achieve enough head for grout to
flow across width of plate. Attach chamfer strip to forms where chamfered edge is required.

Rev 0
FLUOR DANIEL
Advise Engineer if the grout representative recommends materials or procedures contrary to this specification.
1.7 Design and Field Requirements
Foundation plates for equipment and structures shall be grouted to provide full uniform load transfer between
bottom of plate and concrete foundation.
Load transfer to foundation must be through grout, not through shims or other leveling devices. Remove shims
before completing grouting operations.
Projection of grout bed beyond edge of bearing plate shall be no more than 150 mm.
Vibrations from nearby operations can be transmitted into foundations being grouted. These vibrations cause
bleeding and settlement, affect setting time and strength, or create hidden fracture planes. Observe surface of a
shallow pan of water set on foundation being grouted to detect vibration. Shutdown nearby operations if vibrations
are detected until grout has taken final set.
Remove grout splatters from adjacent Work.
All grout installations for equipment and machinery shall be in accordance with ACI 351.1R
1.8 Equipment
A. Grout Mixer
Use only mortar mixers with moving paddles inside the drum. Do not use concrete
mixers with fins attached to rotating drum.
B. Grout Pump
Use only positive displacement type such as diaphragm or piston pump. Screw pumps
are not acceptable.
C. Cleaning
Clean mixing equipment and tools to ensure they are free from oil, dirt, grease, grout
residue, or other deleterious substances.
1.9 Identification and Tagging
Manufactured grouts shall be factory packaged in bags or containers clearly marked to identify
components and with printed manufacturer's mixing and installation procedures listed.

placement. A mortar mixer has rubber edged rotating blades which lift the material
during mixing and facilitate good flow.
2. Mix grout in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
3. Use only the premeasured components supplied. Do not add solvent or reduce
aggregate to change mix consistency.
4. Mix only that quantity of grout that can be placed within working time of the grout.

similar fashion. After the baseplate is full, six inch high stand pipes shall be
maintained over each grout hole to continue the purging of air. Once the grout has
started to take an initial set (determined by an increase in grout temperature and no
flow of grout at the vent holes) the standpipes can be removed and excess grout
cleaned from all surfaces.
8. Continually check for leaks. Leaks shall be immediately sealed to prevent voids.

a. Use moveable head box having an inclined plane to direct grout beneath
equipment base in a manner to minimize trapped air and bubble formation.
b. Use for placing large volumes of grout continuously.
c. Use head box with a minimum 3 cubic foot volume.
d. Fill head box to top and plunge grout down to top of base plate. Continue until
grout rises above bottom of base plate on far side.
e. Always keep surface of grout in head box above top of base plate to prevent
trapping air.
10. Equipment with Elevated Interior Plate
a. Grout under entire equipment base to top of exterior plate.
