u-bars

Tools: Power drill, 7/16” Socket driver, Tape measure
NOTE: Refer to strutting schedules to determine placement of u-bars. strutting
schedules are separated by windload option codes; X’s represent where a u-bar
will be placed.
u-bars will either be attached at the top, middle, or bottom of a section; if placed
across the top of a section the u-bar will be placed just below the hinge leaf at
the top of the section (except for u-bar placement on top section, which is simply
the top of the section); if placed across the bottom of a section, the u-bar will be
placed high enough on the section to ensure the hinge leafs of an adjoining section
will have clearance once sections are stacked and fastened together.
To attach a u-bar to a section: Place u-bar against section (refer to strutting schedule to
determine placement) and align it horizontally with section. Attach to section using (2) 1/4”-
20 x 5/8” self drilling screws at each end and intermediate hinge location and (2) 1/4”-14 x
5/8”self drilling screws between all hinge locations.
for windload option code 0124:
The u-bar that is to be attached across the bottom of the bottom section will need
to be installed across the bottom brackets. Remove and keep the (2) 1/4”-20 x 7/8”
self drilling screws from each bottom bracket. Place u-bar across section and attach to bot-
tom brackets with the (2) 1/4”-20 x 7/8” self drilling screws in the same location. Attach the
additional fasteners as stated above.
