FRAME ASSEMBLY (CONTINUED)
19. Set the end rafter in place and align the purlins with the
pipe straps (previously attached to the rafter). Insert the
rafter feet mounting bolts (bolt head to the outside) and
tighten as previously instructed.
20. Begin with the upper pipe straps and ensure that
approximately half an inch of the purlin extends through
the pipe strap and tighten the pipe strap mounting
bolts.
21. Verify that the end rafter is plumb.
NOTE:
If the rafter is not plumb (straight up and down)
and more of the purlin pipe needs to extend through
the pipe strap and beyond the edge of the rafter, it may
be necessary to cut the purlin to the required length.
Typically, purlins do not require cutting. Verify that you
have selected the correct pipe before cutting any pipe
to length.
To prevent cover damage
, do not allow the purlin to
extend beyond the edge of the rafter
.
22. With all rafters in place and the top four (4) purlins
installed and tightened, return to the rafter feet and
tighten the main bolt that attaches the bottom plate of
the rafter foot to the upper portion of the foot.
23. Complete the ATTACH THE BOTTOM and ATTACH
THE CHORD PURLIN procedures that follow.
