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

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.
