Initially the engineer spec'd out the RMC to be 18" below the finished grade to and at the pumps. I suppose he forgot the 24" requirement.

Anyway, these guys were bending conduit and placing the raceway seals in single digit temperatures. Here is a look at what they have done so far.

Re: Prep for fuel island

Jeff did they run RMC @ 24" Below grade all the way to fuel dispensing pump or did they convert to PVC per 514.8 exception.....Just asking.
 
Re: Prep for fuel island

Are those conduit-stretchers... er, I mean couplings listed for wet locations?

No, I caught that at plan review. I am sure the EC would have caught it too but since I saw it on the plans..............
