Stake the two corners of the control van as indicated on the plant site layout. NOTE A plant site layout figure 2-1 is included as is an alternate plant site layout figure 2-2. Choose one layout prior to beginning the positioning of the equipment. Specific procedures are provided later in the chapter for the set up of each component of the Asphalt Mixing Plant.
