Installation Instructions for Model LLBS Longitudinal and
Lateral Bracing SAtem Approved for Florida
Revised: 03/15/15
Note: Your set must be designed by a Registered Professional Engineer if all or one of the
following conditions occur:
Location is within 1,500 feet of Coast
Pier Height exceeds 48"
Sidewall height exceeds 108-
(call Minute Man Products)
Roof eaves exceeds 16"
Main beam spacing exceeds 99.5"
1. Refer to the Home Manufacturers Installation Instructions for pier locations. 6" Disc anchors
48" long with vertical ties are required at maximum 5'-4" center along both sidewalls starting
at maximum of 2'-0" in from each end of the home. Vertical ties must be used at all connec-
tion points furnished by home manufacturer. Centerline anchors to be sized according to soil
torque condition. Any manufacturer's specifications for sidewail anchor loads in excess of
4,000 Ibs require a 5' anchor.
2. Refer to the System Placement Plans for the location of Longitudinal Lateral Bracing System
(See Attached). Each system is required to have a frame tie and stabilizer attached at each
lateral arm stabilizing location.
3. Flex Tube Installation:
A. Remove turf to expose fine level soil at each SD3 pier pad location. Pre -assemble 1/2" x
1-1/4" carriage bolts onto the SD3 pad with bent edges of pad placed downward, center
pad under I-beam and firmly press SD3 pad into soil and level.
B. Attach Longitudinal and Lateral Flex Tubes at bolt locations on pad (see detail assembly
drawing). Drive angle pins may be driven vertically through (4) slots in SD3 pier pad now
or after home is totally set. Angle Drive Pins may be driven up to ten degrees off of vertical.
4. Standard Tube Installation:
A. For extremely hard soil or surface conditions the SD3 pier pad can be placed flat on
surface with edges bent up. Made (4) slots and pre -drill soil, rock or asphalt with a 3/4" x
12" masonry drill bit. Drilling not required when installed on softer soils.
B. Attach Longitudinal and Lateral Standard Tubes at Tube Clip locations on pad (see detail
assembly drawing). Drive angle pins may driven vertically through (4) slots in SD3 pier
pad now or after home is totally set. Angle Drive Pins may be driven up to ten degrees off
of vertical.
5. Level home on concrete blocks or steel piers by Minute Man.
6. Install Longitudinal And Lateral Bracing in accordance with Systems Placement Plan and
Assembly Drawing.
7. Install vertical anchors, frame ties and stabilizers at each lateral arm system location.
