RAISING RIGID FRAMES (CONTINUED)
Completing And Plumbing The First Bay
After the first intermediate or interior frames have been set, Mueller, Inc. recommends that all
purlins, girts, and eave struts be installed in the braced bay and the entire bay plumbed, aligned
and braced before proceeding further. If the building is designed without cable bracing, the erector
is responsible for providing temporary erection bracing.
When this bay is properly and accurately plumbed and braced, the remaining members, to a large
degree, will automatically plumb and align when installed. Only a final check of the building plumb
remains, and few adjustments, if any, will be necessary.
NOTE: Purlin Nesting note goes here. Something about underclip
