About this detail

A concrete loading dock foundation wall bears on a continuous concrete footing. The foundation wall features vertical reinforcing with number four bars at six inches on center and eighteen inches on center in-between, detailed with hooks at each end and tied with number three ties at six inches on center. Horizontal reinforcement includes two continuous number six bars and number five bars as specified. The top of the wall incorporates a continuous C10x20 steel channel embedded with one-half inch diameter by eight-inch stud anchors at twenty-four inches on center, staggered top and bottom, starting six inches from the ends. A future knock-out for a dock leveler is framed into the top of the wall beneath a rubber bumper at the truck loading area. Slab dowels match the size, spacing, and quantity of the panel dowels, extending into the slab with a two-foot minimum lap. The continuous concrete footing includes a one-foot minimum thickness unless noted otherwise, with three inches of concrete clearance typical and bottom continuous number four reinforcing bars.
