| Site Preparation and Installation |
| The Hy-Grade Restroom Building is easily transported and installed. No foundations or footings are required, site work and preparation is typically minimal. Requirements include a clear and level area approximately one foot larger than the building size, and 6” deep. Fill with Granular A, level and compact to 95% Standard Proctor Density. Top with 2” of screening and level. Building will be set on this prepared foundation. |
