(2) Consecutive rolls. Shingle and overlap consecutive rolls 2 to 6 in. (50 to 150 mm) in the direction <br />of flow. Secure staples through seam at 1 R. (300 mm) intervals. <br />(3) Check seam. Construct astake/staple check seam along the top edge of RECPs for slope <br />application and at specified intervals in a channel by installing two staggered rows of stakes/staples 4 <br />in. (100 mm) apart on 4 in. (100 mm) centers. <br />(4) Slope interruption check slot. Excavate a trench measuring 6 in. wide by 6 in. deep (150 x 150 <br />mm). Secure product to the bottom of the trench. Fold product over upstope material and fill and <br />compact the trench on the downslope side of check slat and seed fill. Continue rolling material <br />downslope over trench. <br />(C) Terminal Ends -utilize one of the methods detailed below for all terminal ends of RECPs <br />(1) Staples. Install the 1tECPs 3 ft. (900 mm) beyond the end of the channel and secure end with a <br />single row of stakes/staples on 1 ft. (300-mm) centers. Stakes/staples for securing RECPS to the <br />soil are typically 6 in. (150 mm) long. <br />(2) Anchor trench. Excavate a 6 in. by 6 in. (150 mm by 150 mm) anchor french. Extend the <br />terminal end of the RECPs 3 ft. (900 mm) past the anchor trench. Use stakes or staples to fasten the <br />product into the bottom of the anchor trench on 1 ft. (300 mm) centers. Backfill the trench and <br />compact the soil into the anchor trench. Apply seed and any necessary soil amendments to the <br />compacted soil and cover with remaining 1 ft. (300 mm) terminal end of the RECPs. Secure terminal <br />end of RECPs with a single row of stakes or staples on 1 fr. (300 mm) centers. <br />(3) Check slot. Construct astake/staple check slot along the terminal end of the RECPs by installing <br />two tows of staggered stakes/staples 4 in. (100 mm) apart on 4 in. (100 mm) centers. <br />Slope Installations. At the top of slope, anchor the RECPs according to one of the method detailed in Section <br />(A) above. Securely fasten all RECPs to the soil by installing stakes/staples at a minimum rate of 1.3/ydZ <br />(I.5/mZ) within the body of the blanket. For the most effective RECP installation use stake/staple pattems and <br />densities as recommended by the manufacturer. For adjacent and consecutive rolls of RECPs follow seaming <br />instructions detailed in Section (B) above. The terminal end of the RECPs installation must be anchored using <br />one of [he methods detailed in Section (C) above. <br />Channel Installations. Construct an anchor trench at the beginning of the channel across its entire width <br />according to Section (A) (2) above. Follow the manufacturer's installation guidelines in constructing additional <br />anchor trenches or stake/staple check slots at intervals along the channel reach and at the tetmirtal end of the <br />channel, according to paragraph (A) above respectively. Unroll RECPs down the center of the channel in the <br />primary water flow direction. Securely fasten all RECPs to the soil by installing stakes/staples at a minimum <br />rate of 1.7/yd2 (1.5/m~). Significantly higher anchor rates and longer stakes/staples may be necessary in sandy, <br />loose, or wet soils and in severe applications. For adjacent and consecutive rolls of RECPs follow seaming <br />instructions detailed in Section (B) above. All terminal ends of the RECPs must be anchored using one of the <br />methods detailed in Section (C) above. , <br />With any RECP installation, ensure sufficient staples to resist uplift from hydraulics, wind, mowers, and foot <br />traffic. For the most effective installation of RECPs, the ECTC recommends using stake/staple patterns and <br />densities as recommended by the manufacturer. <br />Repair any damaged areas immediately by restoring soil to finished grade, re-applying soil amendments and <br />seed, and replacing the RECPs. <br />Copyright ECTC 2006 ECTC, PO Box 18012, St. Paul, MN 55118 USA.
