FRAME ASSEMBLY (CONTINUED)
The upper purlins and the first two rafters should
appear as shown below.
NOTE:
Do not remove the temporary bracing until
additional rafters are in place.
11. Move down the interior rafter assembly to the location
that is in line with the pipe strap attached to the end
rafter
below the chord
and place a cross-connector
(#102546) over the rafter pipe.
The inserts show the purlin, pipe strap and cross-
connector as seen from the inside of the building.
12. Insert the first two sections of the purlin run through the
cross-connector and into the pipe strap in the same
position on the end rafter.
13. Tighten the pipe strap and secure the purlin to the pipe
strap using a Tek screw (FA4482B).
14. Verify the 6' on-center spacing and tighten the cross-
connector. Purlins run parallel with the ground and with
other purlins.
15. Repeat Steps 9-10 to secure the components.
16. Move to the remaining joint below the chord on the
inside rafter and attach the first two sections of the next
purlin.
The drawing above shows the top four (4) purlins
assembled up to this point.
17. Set the next
inside rafter assembly
in position and
secure it to the feet as previously instructed.
18. Continue to add the cross-connectors and the purlin
sections and secure these to the rafter assemblies as
previously instructed.
ATTENTION:
The last rafter to place in position will
be the remaining end rafter. This end rafter includes
the pipe straps attached during the rafter assembly
procedures and is identical to the first end rafter set in
place.
