Concert Chiller Pads

Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document provides the "Chiller Support Concrete Pad Plan" and "Section" details for a construction opportunity. It outlines the specifications for a concrete pad intended to support a chiller unit.

• Plan View: Shows a 11'-0" x 5'-0" concrete pad with dimensions and notes regarding coordination with mechanical drawings (M-101) and site-determined elevation.
• Section View: Details the construction of the pad, including a minimum 2" gravel base, 6" concrete thickness, and the use of W2.0x2.0 welded wire fabric (WWF) centered within the slab. It also indicates that the top of grading varies.
• Notes: Specifies concrete strength (4000 PSI normal weight with 6% air entrainment for exterior concrete) and compliance of steel welded wire fabric with ASTM A185.

This drawing is crucial for bidders to understand the specific requirements for constructing the concrete support pad for the chiller. It provides critical dimensions, material specifications (concrete strength, reinforcement), and placement details that will impact labor, materials, and cost estimations for the project.
