Longitudinal Stabilizer Devices

As an alternate to installing longitudinal anchors and stabilizer plates, the installer may use longitudinal
stabilizing devices approved by the state and/or manufacturer*, including Tie Down’s LSD (Longitudinal
Stabilization Device). The use of one LSD system per beam for a single section and two systems per section for
a multi-section replaces all longitudinal anchors, stabilizer plates and straps in Wind Zones I and II. Three
systems per section are required in Wind Zone III.
* Verify approval requirements with the regulator and the home manufacturer.
