Assembling the Center Collar
The center collar assembles each A-frame roof rafter section together at the top.
Before You Begin
Determine the correct orientation of the center collar in relation to any stairs or conveyor systems. Each
half of the center collar (A) has drilled holes for the installation of the cap plate and side plates that will be
installed later. For this procedure, each half of the center collar needs to sit securely on stands or suitable
blocks, allowing plenty of room to access the bolts on the bottom side of the assembly.
