Anchors. Anchoring is NOT allowed at the Sunoco Marcus Hook Facility Docks.
Anchors. A. Provide anchors for all equipment, raceways, hangers, etc. to safely support weight of item involved plus 100% for dead loads. Live loads shall be considered in addition to dead loads.
B. Anchors to consist of expansion type devices similar to "Redhead" or lead expansion anchors. Plastic anchors are not acceptable.
C. Use preset anchor steel inserts in concrete slabs. Provide preset anchor size and type for anticipated or specified rod/bolt size and live/dead load.
Anchors. Rail anchors shall be new or reconditioned, sized to fit the rail section, and shall be provided per industrial track design criteria on page 3. High traffic volumes or unusual grade or alignment problems may require additional anchors as determined by BNSF Engineering. Turnouts shall also be anchored. Ties: Hardwood ties shall be 7" X 8" (AREMA No. 4) or 7" X 9" (No. 5), 8'-6" long, placed on 21.5" centers. Switch ties shall have a minimum cross section of 7" x 9" and minimum lengths shall conform to applicable BNSF Standard plans. Concrete ties shall be pre-stressed, measure 11" wide at the bottom and 9" high with a length of 8' 3" and weight of 630 pounds. Concrete ties can be placed on 28" centers provided there is a minimum ballast section of 8" below the tie. Turnouts (Switches, Frogs & Guardrails): All parts shall be new or good secondhand, with secondhand parts being free of injurious defects. Tie Plates: Tie plates may be new or secondhand, free of injurious defects and foreign material, conforming to AREA Specifications, and shall fit rail being used. For rail 110# section and greater, all plates will be double-shouldered. Joints: New or secondhand joints, free of foreign material and without injurious defects, and with 4 or 6 bolt holes, conforming to AREMA requirements, may be furnished to fit rail section for which they are designed. New or secondhand compromise joints of manufactured type (welded or homemade not acceptable), free of foreign material and without injurious defects, shall be furnished and used where rail section (weight or design) changes. Rail section by weight shall not be compromised where difference in weight is in excess of 25 lbs. When this becomes necessary, a rail of some weight between the two different rail sections, in excess of 25 lbs., shall be used and the compromise made in two steps. Spikes:
Anchors. Provide cast-in-place or torque-controlled expansion anchors with capability to sustain, without failure, a load equal to six times the load imposed when installed in unit masonry and equal to four times the load imposed when installed in concrete, as determined by testing per ASTM E 488 conducted by a qualified independent testing agency.
1. Material for Anchors in Exterior Locations: Alloy Group 2 (A4) stainless-steel bolts complying with ASTM F 593 and nuts complying with ASTM F 594.
Anchors. A Description - Anchors shall consist of a power driven screw type double helix with connecting rod and eyenut.
Anchors. When reinforcing steel is required, support it using bar supports, anchor studs, expansion hook bolts, grouted rebar, or steel pins capable of resisting a pullout force of 2,500 lb. Space anchors no more than 12 in. center-to-center on overhead surfaces, 18 in. center-to-center on vertical surfaces, and 36 in. center-to-center on top horizontal surfaces. Use at least three anchors in each individual patch area. Secure steel pins or studs into the concrete with epoxy or other approved methods. Do not use explosive force to shoot pins, studs, or other anchors into the concrete. Check the resistance to pullout of the reinforcing anchors as directed. Notify the Engineer before installation of the anchors. Locate anchors to prevent damage to prestressing tendons or conduits embedded in the concrete. Maintain a minimum clear cover of 1 in. between the reinforcing steel and anchors and the finished surface of the repair area.
Anchors. Where shear studs or other types of concrete anchors are welded or fastened to the walking surface of beams, prior to erection, an Employer make every effort to ensure safe conditions. consideration of the mutual benefits likely to be obtained, a Joint and Safety Committee be established (3) Management and three
Anchors. Anchors - Primary
Anchors. Anchoring is NOT allowed at SPMT’s docks.
Anchors. Provide anchors to secure the frame to adjoining construction. Provide steel anchors, zinc-coated or painted with rust-inhibitive paint, not lighter than 18 gage.
