Double rod attachment – bolted to the building

Use this type of installation for unit heaters.

Step 1: Attach anchors and vertical rods to the building structure

Lay out all attachment points before anchoring. For building structure attachment details, see Figures 95 to 100. Attach equipment to the vertical rods.

The attachment should be located just above the center of gravity or the equipment should be fitted with an anti-moment plate to minimize swinging. It should be a rigid attachment with brackets to the equipment using double nuts, especially if connected at the top as shown in Figure 112

Step 2: Attach rod stiffeners

For attachment details, refers to Figure 101

Step 3: Attach anchors to the building structure for cable attachment

Figure 102 shows typical anchorage to different building construction. See Anchors.

Step 4: Attach cable to the building structure

For cable assembly see Cables.

For details on attaching cable to the building structure, see Figure 102.

Step 5: Attach cables to equipment

The detail in Figure 112 shows the attachment to the equipment.
