Insert field provided threaded 
rods through the bottom lifting 
lug and shipping split plates on 
each sides of the unit. Draw both 
sides of the section together 
equally to prevent damage and 
distortion of the sections as they 
joined. Do not try to join sections 
by tightening only one side of 
the rods (see Figure 13). 
Note: Field-provided threaded 
hardware should consist of 5/8-11x12 
inch threaded rods 5/8-inch lock 
washers and 5/8-inch nuts.
Note: Failure to compress the butyl 
tape may result in air and water 
leakage.
Once the sections are pulled 
together, add a bead of caulk 
(sikaflex) along the seam 
between the two perimeter caps 
(see Figure 14).
Install the assembly hardware as 
applicable for the shipping split 
frame inside of unit, the walls, 
and the roof as demonstrated in 
the following assembly sections.
