IMPORTANT: Begin bolting in the center of sheets when connecting sidewall rings to one another.
When bolting sidewall rings to one another, always begin bolting in the center of the sheet and work toward
the outside edges (horizontal seams). This allows the sidewall to draw up evenly.

It is easier to add more sidewall sheets with the tank on its side. It can be rolled easily from side-to-side
to allow the bolts and nuts to be put in the proper holes. NOTE: The roof must be assembled on the first
ring before rolling it over to its side. This will not be practical on taller tanks where jacks should be used.
