About Temperature Cable Brackets and A-Frame Assemblies

Temperature cable bracket installation locations must be considered prior to assembling the A-frames.

Installation Locations for Temperature Cable Brackets

Before assembling the A-frames, you must know the installation locations of the temperature cable brack-
ets within the A-frame assemblies. Temperature cable brackets are installed at the same time as the pur-
lins are installed.

This information is provided solely for the purpose of facilitating proper support bracket placement. It is
fully the responsibility of the dealer, customer, contractor, or said agent of such parties to confirm the
details of the system to be used. GSI is not responsible for the effectiveness or performance of any tem-
perature cable monitoring system or layout.

IMPORTANT: Temperature cable brackets must be installed at the specified locations as shown below.

Any variation from this pattern or cable quantity shown must be reviewed by GSI engineer-
ing. This must be reviewed well in advance of the bin order.

Lifting Sequence for the A-Frame Assemblies

The layout of the roof structure consists of standard A-frame assemblies and A-frame assemblies with X-
bracing that are installed in a specific sequence to evenly distribute the weight as they are being installed.

The A-frames with X-bracing are strategically spaced around the diameter of the bin and are the first A-
frames to be installed. The A-frame assemblies can be installed in the order as shown in the figure below.
A-frames are installed across from each other to keep the weight distributed evenly during installation.

Tip

Label each A-frame assembly according to the order it is to be installed as it is assembled.
