Grain Systems Recommended Method for Full Floor Installation

Using the GSI recommended method for full floor installation should save construction time and eliminate
the problem of improper installation which could invalidate your warranty. Note the following dimensions
as shown in

Figure 2B.

• Dimension “A” is the leg-to-leg spacing along the centerline of a given plank.

• Dimension “B” is the amount of stagger between supports under adjacent planks and is half

of Dimension “A”.

• Dimension “C” is the distance from the center of the unload auger to the nearest rows of

supports and is half of Dimension “B”.

Dimensions “A”, “B” and “C” are shown on the appropriate grandstand layout for wall heights under
32 feet. For taller bins, grandstand quantity as well as dimensions “A” and “B” are given on

Page 31

and

Page 32

for 20 gauge.

1. Layout centerlines of tank. Make sure one centerline is in line with the direction of the flooring planks

while the other centerline is perpendicular with the flooring planks.

See Figure 2B.

2. From the centerline that is perpendicular to the flooring planks, measure the distance of “C”

Dimension and mark a chalk line.

See Figure 2B.

3. From the line chalked in the previous step, measure over the distance of “B” Dimension and chalk

another line. Repeat this procedure across the bin until reaching the wall in both directions. When
completed, there should be a set of parallel lines (perpendicular to the floor planks) with “B”
Dimension distance between each line.

See Figure 2B.
