Installation and Specs

Installation Summary: Soil along Curb

• Using the included pins, puncture the foam core through the opening at one end of the piece or straight through the filter fabric in multiple areas
• Dig a 3in deep x 6in wide trench inside the work area (upstream)
• Place the tail in the trench with the core outside the trench on the downstream side (away from the work area)
• If there is sufficient cutback (greater than 5inches) then do not dig a trench or fold the tail section
• Connect sections of DuraWattle by inserting the closed end of one section into the opened end of another
• Pin the tail with provided nails every four (4) feet and over any overlapping sections
• Mark Pin locations above the soil level with spray paint
• Backfill over the tail to secure it to the surface
• If DuraWattle is being used as a linear barrier and not installed around the perimeter of the site, then J-hook one section of DuraWattle at each end of the run
• Soil Removal:
  • Using the painted guide, pop out pins with a shovel
  • Pull the wattle out of the soil

Installation Summary: Hard Surface

• Install surface should be clear of debris and flat as possible to maximize contact with the surface
• Place the tail section inside the work area with the core downstream
• Connect sections of DuraWattle by inserting the closed end of one section into the opened end of another
• Fold the tail section over itself and a wood plank or a predrilled 2in metal strip is laid over the tail.
  • Screws should be spaced 4 feet apart along the length of the strip or wood plank
• Use a rotary hammer and masonry (asphalt) bit to predrill the hard surface.
• Use an impact driver to drive the 2 ¾” depth concrete screw anchors (Tapcon screws) and secure the steel strips/wood planks.
• If DuraWattle is being used as a linear barrier and not installed around the perimeter of the site, then J-hook one section of DuraWattle at each end of the run
• Using the included pins, puncture the foam core straight through the filter fabric in multiple areas
• Hard surface removal:
  • Backout concrete anchor screws
  • Remove steel strip/wood planks
