    I saw the plans ,ostly called for a .30%. Did you set the laser at .26% (video mark 1:29) because the laser was further back than if starting at the catch basin?

    Ive never set a pipe laser up on the ground like that, but may be easier to line it up that way. 🤔

    Isn’t flow line the bottom of the inside of pipe and then you add thickness to get the true bottom of pipe ?

    Tips on setting the catch basin I’ve been setting them with the same fl of my pipe is that correct?

    • @thomasconstructiontexas
      @thomasconstructiontexas  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      By being able to set the pipe up or down in the inlet box, it gives you the freedom to match the top grade. Risers come in 6 inches 12 inches. So by where you place the pipe in the box, you're able to leave yourself with even 6 inches, 12 inches or 36 inches whatever it works out too. If you raise the pipe in the box, you need to go put cement in the bottom so you don't have standing water.

    Do you always set your pipe laser on top of your trench?

    • @thomasconstructiontexas
      @thomasconstructiontexas  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Most of the time we do. The reason for that when you take the pipe and it's been laying in the sun and you put it in the cool ditch, the humidity will make the laser dance around. At that point, you need to put a fan blowing through the pipe to keep it from doing it. So it's just as easy to put it on top and not have to deal with that.
