NOTE: We work to provide our customers with the clearest information available. However,
Massachusetts has a proprietary testing and approval process for plumbing products, and
although many products are approved, not all are. Many well known brands and manufacturers
simply do not go through the processes required. It is possible that a particular product that you
may select may not have been approved, and if it is rejected by the local inspector, the customer
will have to select an alternative product and pay any difference in cost between the items, as
well as any shipping or restocking charges.
Of special concern may be specialty products or unique items. Vendors have some additional
information, and there are websites that you can check but the information may not be up to date.

lamps/bulbs are not visible from any point or angel within the property or adjoining
properties.
2. The lamps for these fixtures must be recessed far enough into the shade to prevent
spillage.
3. Bollard lighting for walkways must follow the same performance characteristics.
4. Post lights must follow the same guidelines, which may require additional locations.
5. No flood lights are to be installed. Any security lighting that is required should be motion

1. Gas permeable layer via 15 mil poly
2. Seal/caulk all slab perpetrations
3. Vent pipe to roof
4. Electric outlet near pipe in the event of a inline fan being required
See Radon Preparation below
NOTE: Excavation contractor is responsible for all items and scope of work in these sections.
Excavate foundation area as required by drawings, storing loam and sub-grade material
separately. Prepare site for foundation, removing stumps in excavated areas. Ledge, boulder,
hardpan removal is at extra cost. Back-fill with site materials, except where required for drainage
and grade surface for positive run-off away from building and remove excess material. NOTE:
Rewash is NOT an acceptable backfill material. Protect waterproofing during back fill.
Concealed underground piping/drainage or other articles discovered during excavation to be
handled at extra cost unless specifically included in prior estimate. Fill and compact under slabs
to 95% in maximum one-foot lifts. Correct all back fill, if required, after settling. Footings to be on
4” of ¾” crushed stone for capillary break.
See section 22 00 00, Radon Protection. In crawl spaces, furnish and install 6 mil poly vapor
barrier and cover with 2" of ½” pea stone.
All excavation will be isolated with caution tape or fencing barriers installed and maintained by
excavation contractor while on site. Open trenching will be covered or fenced.
Trenching at building and excavation for porch concrete piers to be coordinated during backfill or
earlier, as practical.
Remove stumps.
Rough grade to be relatively smooth and hole free, contoured for proper drainage.
Superior Wall Site Preparation Procedures Prior To Installation
This document outlines the basic information needed to prepare your site for the installation of the
Superior Wall System®. Refer to Superior Walls Builder Guideline Booklet for complete
information.
It is Critical that your site be properly prepared PRIOR to the delivery of the walls.
ACCESS TO SITE:
Trucks have a minimum clearance of 10’ wide by 60’ long from all objects (trees, wires or
structures)
Entrance (Cannot be less – minimum requirements) at least 32 feet, Drive at least 12 feet,
Roadway at least 22 feet
Any sharp turns in driveway are wide enough to accommodate tractor trailers
TREES AND WIRES:
Trucks require clearance of at least 14 feet (Cannot be less – minimum requirements)
Cranes must be at least 30 feet from the nearest wires (Cannot be less – minimum
requirements)
76
Crane may not lift over wires, trees or existing structures. If ANY overhead obstructions are
present, you MUST contact Weaver Northeast Customer Service prior to installation
CRANE PREPARATION:
Crane pad must be at least 30’ x 50’ (Cannot be less – minimum requirements)
Crane pad must be Flat, Level, and Compacted
Crane must have stable footing to eliminate sinking
Crane pad has no more than a 2 foot pitch from front to rear
Crane MUST stay at least 15’ from edge of excavation.
Should site conditions require a crane larger than what is specified in the proposal, customer
will be responsible for supplemental crane charges.
EQUIPMENT ON SITE:
Equipment capable of pulling 80,000 lbs. (i.e. – backhoe, loader or bulldozer) must be available
with an operator or on call within 1/2 hour to assist truck and crane entrance to and exit from job
site as necessary. See Weaver Northeast – Terms and Conditions
EXCAVATION
Superior Walls Must be installed on Virgin Soil
Excavation has at least a 2 foot over dig (minimum requirement)
Excavation is properly benched. (OSHA requires foundation excavation greater than 7’6” deep,
bench 2’ for every 5’ of depth.
Trenches are at least 36 inches wide (minimum requirement)
STONE:
Stone requirement is 1/2”, Clean, Crushed (AASHTO #8 recommended) NO LARGER
Stone must cover the entire area where walls are to be set and graded level to within 1”
Stone depth must be at least 6” (minimum requirement – see Superior Walls Builder Guideline
Booklet)
CORNER PINS:
Pins defining all outside & inside corners must be in place in the stone footing, including
trenches.
Diagonal drawings are available from Weaver Northeast Customer Service upon request.
NOTE: Placement of corner pins is the responsibility of the customer. Pins MUST be in place
before walls will be set.
Upon completion of installation and before backfill can commence:
1. Framing / decking must be completed in compliance with “Superior Walls – Builder Guideline
Booklet”.
2. Concrete floor / slab must be installed.
3. Reference “Before you Backfill” instructions posted on the outside of your foundation and your
“Superior Walls – Builder Guideline Booklet” for specifics concerning final preparation for backfill.
Finish Grading
Per code, slope grade from the structure ½” per foot for 10’ minimum. Adjust final grades for
drainage and proper contour, according to site plan, if available or to reasonable trade standard
for proper drainage and erosion control. Screen and reuse existing loam and topsoil materials,
and augment as needed for sufficient loam material to provide a minimum of 4” coverage on all
disturbed areas as noted on site plan.
Note: If setbacks limit the space to less than 10 ft., install either: Swales or drains designed
to carry water away from the foundation.
77
Tamp backfill. Backfill tamping is not required if proper drainage can be achieved using non-
settling compact soils.
Final loam thickness should be relatively consistent, with material substantially free of debris, and
left ready for machine raking and seeding.
NOTE: spread thickness will subsequently compact when raked and prepared for landscaping.
Walk and Wall Prep
Leave ample site materials for final back filling and coordinate with stone contractor.
Sewer
Install new schedule 40 PVC plastic sewer line from 10’ outside building and tie in to municipal
sewer system. Use appropriate Fernco. # hub connector for the application.
Water Service
Water service from street to basement utility area, with holes and cuts sealed by piping installer
using hydraulic cement or other approved method. Shut-off by plumber. Water tie-in and meter
fee per Section 01 01 03.

Utility Trench
Provide 30” deep utility trench for electric, cable, and telephone and prepare bottom of trench with
8” of sand to cover burial cable. Back fill with site material removing any large stone and restore
grade. Caution tape is to be placed in each trench 12-24” above lines. Surface flagging is to be
installed for utilities. Electrician or piping installer is responsible for inspection pictures, if
required, and provide to utility company and Wright Builders.
Foundation Drainage
4” Flexible plastic perimeter drains set in crushed stone covered in filter fabric and pitched to
daylight, with clean-outs to grade every 100’ or as needed. Window wells, if used, are to be
connected to drain (see standard details). Use plastic cap at daylight end. Cover with 3/8” stone
and filter fabric before back filling.
