ASSEMBLY
PROCEDURE:
For the Single Unit
1. Install the square foot plates into
the bottom of each post.
Assemble your shelving unit as
described in the assembly instruction
sheet packed with the shelving.
Be certain to follow the OSHPD
regulations previously outlined.
After completing the assembly of the
shelving system, install Sway Brace
End and Back Kits as follows:
For a single freestanding unit, install
Sway Brace End Kits on each end
(Fig. 1).

Fig. 2
Fig. 3
Fig. 4
Fig. 5
2. Install a Sway Brace Clamp onto
each post by spreading the clamp
and fitting it over the post. Note that
the clamps are to be installed just
above the 60" shelf position. Using
the nut and bolt supplied, attach a
Sway Brace to the clamp by inserting
the bolt through the brace and the
clamp and tighten nut securely
(Fig. 2).
3. Repeat the procedure for the
opposite side. Pivot the brace so
that it crosses the unit and attach it
to the post with Sway Brace Clamps
at the position dictated by the end
of the brace.
Install the Sway Brace Back Kit onto
the unit following the same procedure
as that for the End Kits with the
exception that the Upper clamps are
to be located just below the 60" shelf
position and the lower clamps are to
be below the lowest shelf (Fig. 3).
4. After all braces are installed, drill a
3
/
16
diameter hole in each post
through the hole in the Sway Brace
Clamp (Fig. 4) and install the TEK
screw provided to secure the clamps
to the post (Fig. 5).
5. After all assembly of the shelving
is complete, place the shelving in the
desired location and anchor the foot
plates to the floor using approved
diameter expansion anchors or
thru-bolts (not provided).
See Anchorage Specification chart.
NOTE: For OSHPD approval, the
anchorage to the structure must be
independently verified for each
installation by the Structural
Engineer of Record. The Engineer
of Record must also verify that the
structure itself is adequate for
applied loads.

ASSEMBLY
PROCEDURE:
For the Back-to-Back Unit
1. Install the square foot plates into
the bottom of each post.
Assemble both shelving units as
described in Single Unit noting that
only one of the units will have Back
Sway Braces installed.
Position both units back to back and
clamp them together using the Post
Clamp Kits provided. The clamps are
to be positioned one near the top of
the unit, one at the bottom and one
halfway between (Fig. 6).
2. Install Sway Brace End Kits on
each end as described in the Single
Unit. Note that the braces will attach
to the outermost posts (Fig. 7).

3. After all assembly of the shelving
system is complete, place the
shelving in the desired location and
anchor the foot plates to the floor
using approved diameter expansion
anchors or thru-bolts (not provided).
See Anchorage Specification chart.
NOTE: For OSHPD approval, the
anchorage to the structure must be
independently verified for each
installation by the Structural Engineer
of Record. The Engineer of Record
must also verify that the structure
itself is adequate for applied loads.
NOTE: Requirements are for
OSHPD approved shelving
installed in the state of California.
Installations outside the state of
California are subject to any state
and local codes for the location
where they are installed.
