Recommendations for Cast in place pull box design

(OP)
I'm looking for recommendations for a Cast in place pull box design.

RE: Recommendations for Cast in place pull box design

1. Make it big enough to accommodate the bending radius of the cables.
2. Provide sufficient conduits for the number of cables plus a reasonable number of spares.
3. Provide a lid suitable for the installation environment.
4. Provide more details to obtain a more useful answer.

Regards

RE: Recommendations for Cast in place pull box design

Hi Bill,
I am surprised that you don't buy a pre-cast man-hole. A made-in-place manhole will likely cost you more $$. Is there anything special wrt the man-hole requirements? Is the site remote (ie transportation costs for a pre-cast manhole would be excessive).
Need additional info.
