NOTES:
Pier height is measured from top of the Vector Pad to the
bottom of the I-beam. Vector Systems should be spaced
as symmetrically as possible along the length of the home.
Pier spacing must be consistent with home manufacturers
instruction and/or state requirements.
Maximum allowable working load for metal strut: 3150 lbs.
* One Longitudinal Vector System is made up of 2
struts, which can be used separately.
