If you are Considering using an AccuMix plant on your project, please familiarize yourself with the following requirement.  Understanding these requirements is in  your best interest  and will ensure the smoothest possible project.

Site Layout

Thorough consideration should be given to selection of the plant site.  Considerations include efficient path for trucks to load from the front of the plant, room for ramp or conveyor to load plant, proximity to stockpile, available corridor for product tankers and fuel truck on side of plant, and routing of the incoming water line.

Site Preparation

In order to maintain accuracy in the plants metering system and to avoid damage to the plant, it is crucial that the chosen plant site meets certain standards and is properly prepared.

The plant site must be an accessible compacted area at least 16’x43’ in size, leveled to within ± 1”, and capable of supporting 325,000 pounds without settling.  This weight will be distributed  through eight support legs exerting 20,000 pounds per square foot.    The site must have sufficient drainage to keep water from accumulating on it.  Special consideration should be given to ensuring the incoming water line is completely free of leaks.  If the optional auxilary silo is used an addition 32'x16' area meeting the same criteria must be prepared. Additional area  in front of the plant and silo will also have to be relatively level in order for the tractor to deliver it (see diag. below).
