To ensure Near-Absolute Protection the ESP Safety Shelter must be
anchored to an adequately reinforced concrete slab to resist the
forces applied during a severe wind event. The minimum thickness,
reinforcing and overhang of the concrete slab are shown in the chart
below. If the thickness of the concrete is increased then the
overhang could be decreased if reviewed and approved by a
Licensed Structural Engineer.
Any deviation from the design criteria will require a Licensed
Structural Engineer in your State to review and make
recommendations for your specific situation and approve your
slab. This slab analysis is not provided by the manufacturer. Failure
to follow the installation and inspection checklist provided with this
shelter can result in catastrophic failure up to and including loss of
life as a result. ESP Safety Shelters, Swisher Acquisition Inc. (SAI) or
any of its affiliated companies have no liability if the slab and
anchoring design criteria are not followed and verified by a third party
qualified inspector.
Anchor bolt installation is for slab on grade applications only. Do not
drill or cut into supported slab over a basement or crawl space.
Steps should be taken to avoid drilling into pre-tensioning or post
tensioning strands or reinforcing in the slab.
