  2. Screw required length of construction tube to the footing form with four 1" screws.
  3. Drill 3/8 (10 mm) holes on a 45 degree angle in the footing form as indicated by the markings on the flange area at each rib location to accept 12" (300 mm) spikes. Drive 12" (300 mm) spikes in at a 45 degree angle to prevent the footing form from rising.
