Attaching the Inside Stiffener to the Top Outside Stiffener

The inside stiffener supports the eave bracket. It is installed to the inside perimeter of the sidewall sheet at
the same time as the top outside stiffener. Two-post sidewall sheets will have two inside stiffeners per
sheet and three-post sidewall sheets will have three inside stiffeners per sheet. The inside stiffeners are
only located at the eave bracket locations in the sidewall sheet.

What You Should Know

NOTE: Do not tighten the nuts (C) until all hardware has been installed attaching the inside stiffener (CTS–

2069XX) to the sidewall and the outside stiffener. Bins with an odd number of rings will use the
one-ring outside stiffener (CTS-2071XX), and bins with an even number of rings will use the two-
ring outside stiffener (CTS-2111XX or CTS-2116XX).

1. From the inside perimeter of the sidewall, place the bolt (B) through the hole located approximately 4

in. down from the top of the sidewall sheet (A).
