When in doubt, consult the services of a qualified contractor experienced with the construction of similar structures.

Base Plates

If your frame includes base plates, prepare the site and anchor the base plates to concrete before assembling the frame. Layout the site and continue with Base Plates Option section.

Base plates can be anchored to a concrete slab or concrete piers. Consult Ground Post section for concrete pier layout, then continue with Base Plates section.

The frame assembly of this building requires the setting of all ground post in concrete. Review the layout diagrams for additional details.

Enlist the services of a professional and competent contractor to prepare the site and set the ground posts.

Failing to secure ground posts in concrete as required may result in damage to the building, building contents, and surrounding property.

MARK THE SITE AND DIG POST HOLES These steps describe marking all post hole locations and digging the holes. For some sites, it may not be possible to complete the procedure in this manner. An alternative procedure such as working from one end of the building toward the other may be necessary. Determine the best procedure based on the site and other factors and proceed as needed.

NOTE: Refer to the Quick Start Section located near the back of these instructions for the Side Profile and related diagrams.

Complete these steps: 1. Stake the outline of the building using string line and batter boards. Set batter boards 3' back from the building corners. Check to ensure that the building layout is square. Cover or panels (if equipped) will not install properly if the building frame is not square once assembled. 2. Consult the diagrams in the Quick Start section to verify the frame length and width dimensions and to accurately position the ground posts. 3. Guided by the string line, use a flag or stake to mark each ground post hole location. 4. Move the string line and dig a post hole a minimum of two feet (2') deep or to a depth that is below the geographic frost line. Consult local building codes. A power auger works best. Minimum hole diameter is 12". 5. After digging all holes, reattach the string line to the batter boards and use it as a guide to set and align the ground posts.

FRAME ASSEMBLY Use the diagrams and information that follows to assemble the main frame.

ATTENTION: Rafters are heavy. Always lift rafter from two separate points to prevent damage and injury. Examine the site to determine the best way to move the rafters into position and to set them onto the ends of each set of ground posts. Do not set rafters into position until the ground post concrete has set.

Optional, but recommended—especially for long buildings: Build a Rafter-Spacing Jig (Customer supplies materials.)

A spacing jig saves time and helps to evenly space the rafters. Jig sets the on-center spacing of rafters. Examine the photo below and use it to build a jig to space rafters during purlin installation. Use 2" x 4" lumber and wood fasteners.

Customer-supplied rafter-spacing jig.

ATTENTION: Anchor the first rafter in place using bracing or rope/cable. Do not allow the first rafter to stand without bracing until additional rafters are set and purlins are installed.

2-PART RIBBON BOARD INSTALLATION Gather the parts: • Part 1 of ribbon board: 2" x 6" treated lumber (supplied by customer) to attach to rafters. • Part 2 of ribbon board: 1" x 4" treated lumber (supplied by customer) to attach to the first part of the ribbon board. • Fasteners supplied by customer to attach boards to metal rafter pipes (exterior grade).

The size and type of material may require alternative steps. When properly installed, ribbon board runs the Ribbon Board length of frame along each side. Ribbon board is supplied by customer as are fasteners to secure board to rafters. Complete these steps: 1. Mark ribbon board height along the outside of the frame from end-to-end using a chalk line. Consult the diagrams on this page and the next for position. 2. Align board with outer edge of end rafter and attach to the frame. Use carriage bolts or countersink fastener heads. Consult the photos on the next page for additional details. 3. Continue adding boards to complete the first run. Make splices between rafters as shown in the baseboard procedure. Use a short section of material to secure the splice between separate boards. 4. Repeat steps to install the second run of ribbon board along the other side. Customer-supplied 5.

Typically, end framing and end panels are installed before the cover is pulled onto the frame. If your building is equipped with an end wall and end wall covering, review the instructions sent with the end panel kit and end wall framing and proceed as instructed.

After installing the end framing and cladding, return to this guide and continue with the installation of the main cover and drop-down sides.

FRAME CHECK Inspect the frame for sharp edges or fasteners that could damage the cover during installation. 1. Verify that all frame members are properly secured and that all bolts and clamps are tight. 2. Recheck the frame assembly for sharp edges or clamps and bolts that may interfere with the installation of the curtain. File or tape sharp edges as needed. 3. Reposition clamps and bolts as needed and tape all rafter pipe joints with duct tape to protect the cover material. 4. Verify that the main building frame is properly and adequately anchored. 5. Clear the site around the building to prepare a staging area for the cover material. 6. Continue with the cover installation steps.

ATTENTION: Before you install the cover, verify that these options if present have been installed: end wall frame, door frames, and end wall cladding. Consult the documentation for those items and proceed as instructed. If these items have been installed or are not present, continue with the cover installation.

After attaching u-channel to end rafters and along the sides, unpack the main cover and pull into place. Ropes or straps are typically used to pull the main cover onto and over the frame.

WARNING: To prevent damage to the cover and to prevent serious personal injury, DO NOT attempt to install the main cover on windy or stormy days.

Complete these steps: 1. Take the cover material and position it along the base of one side of the building.

SHELTER CARE AND MAINTENANCE Proper care and maintenance of the shelter is important. Space below is reserved for customer notes. Check the following items periodically to properly maintain the shelter: • Regularly check the cover to ensure that it remains tight and in proper repair. • Replace all damaged or broken components immediately. • Check connections and all fasteners to verify that they remain tight and in good condition. • Do not climb or stand on the building at anytime. • Inspect the anchoring system to verify that all components remain tight and in good condition. • Verify that the side panel components are in good working condition. • Do not allow the drop-down panels to remain in the open position for extended periods. Raise the panel periodically to allow it to dry and for cleaning. • Replace anti-billow rope immediately if worn or broken. • Remove debris and objects that accumulate on the building. Use tools that will not damage the cover when removing debris. • Remove snow to prevent excess accumulation. Use tools that will not damage the cover when removing snow. Keep heated during non-growing season to prevent snow and ice buildup. • Check the contents of the shelter to verify that nothing is touching the cover that could cause damage. • If the shelter is dismantled and moved, inspect all parts and connections before using. • For replacement or missing parts, call 1-800-245-9881 for assistance.

NOTE: With the exception of engineered buildings, GrowSpan™ shelters and buildings do not have any tested loading criteria unless otherwise specified.
