Info

When unloading boxes, caution should be exercisedto ensure no personnel are in the path ofthe box as it is being moved. The box should behandled per manufacturer’s recommendations.Use only manufacturer approved lifting devices tohandle box culvert sections. The box should be liftedand never dragged to avoid damage. If the liftingdevice could chip the box, padding should be providedbetween the box and the lifting mechanism.When a box is provided with lifting holes, the liftingdevice should pass through the wall and distributethe weight along the inside wall of the box.If the box is going to be installed directly from thetruck trailer to the final location, a crane with stabilizersshould be used. Be aware that some crawlerswithout outriggers, or backhoes, may not have thestability or maneuverability needed to line up theunits for proper installation.If the box is going to be stored on-site, alternativemeans can be used to transport the sections totheir temporary location. Care must be taken at alltimes and handling of boxes should be limited. Themanufacturer’s handling recommendations shouldbe followed at all times. Mishandling can result incracked bells and spigots.Special boxes are normally shipped in the orderthey should be installed and therefore should bestored in the order of delivery.STORINGStoring of boxes should be done as near to thefinal installation destination as possible. If stackingof boxes is advisable, a flat surface with no rocksshould be chosen for the first layer. Follow themanufacturer’s recommendations for an acceptablestack height.American Concrete Pipe Association • www.concrete-pipe.org 67
Gaskets and sealing materials should be storedin a cool dry place until needed. Rubber gasketsand bulk mastic or preformed mastics should bekept clean and away from excessive heat. Somemastics may need to be heated under extreme coldconditions, and tar joint compound should also beheated for optimum behavior during application.68American Concrete Pipe Association • www.concrete-pipe.org
