OUTRIGGER FRAME ASSEMBLY (CONTINUED)
9. Secure the second rafter to the 1-Way connector on
the outrigger base rail and adjust the rafter width as
needed to achieve the 48" on-center dimension.
NOTE:
The end of the purlin at the end rafter extends
about 1/2" through the pipe strap as shown below.
To prevent conflicts with the installation of the end wall
metal panels, do not allow the purlin pipe to extend
beyond the edge of the rafter.
Diagram A (above) shows pipe strap and purlin at the
first rafter. Diagram B (below) shows the purlin at the
second (or inside) rafter. (Pulin position may vary.)
10. With the purlin in position, secure the pipe strap to the
first rafter and install a Tek screw through the pipe strap
and into the purlin. See Diagram A.
11. Verify that the rafter spacing is 48" on-center, tighten
the pipe strap on the second rafter, and install a Tek
screw through the pipe strap to secure the purlin in the
strap.
12. Repeat the above steps as needed to attach the
remaining outrigger rafters to the main frame and to
complete the installation of the purlin for the first side.

NOTE:
End the purlin run with the
shorter,
plain pipe
(131P0XX), where the XX represents the length
needed to reach the end of the frame. This pipe does
not have a swaged/tapered end. If the end rafter is
plumb and the purlin extends beyond the pipe strap
when installed, cut the purlin pipe as needed to keep it
from extending past the end rafter.
Typically purlin pipe does not need to be cut.
Verify that
you have selected the correct pipe before cutting a pipe
to length.
13. Return to each pipe strap and verify that all Tek screws
are tight and that a Tek screw has been installed to
secure the purlin to the pipe strap.
14. Return to each purlin pipe splice and secure the splice
with a Tek screw as shown below.
ATTENTION:
All pipe splices are secured with Tek
screws.
15. Verify that all Tek screws are installed and tight and
that all fasteners used to secure the frame to the main
frame assembly are properly installed and tight.
16. After the assembly and installation of the first outrigger
frame is complete, repeat the steps to assemble and
install the remaining outrigger frame.
17. Continue by installing the diagonal braces for the main
frame rafters as described in the following procedure.
