section to be suspended by the lifting lugs for an extended
period of time. Once the unit or unit section leaves the
trailer, ensure it is level at all times.
Assembling a Multi-section (Modular) Unit
Special attention must be taken to ensure that a multi-
section (modular) unit has an air and water-tight seal at
every section split. Follow the next set of instructions for
assembling a multi-section (modular) unit.
1. Remove the yellow lifting lugs located on the section
joint (if any) once the first section is set in place.
2. Set the second section approximately 6” [152 mm]
from the first section (see Figure 2). Remove the
yellow lifting lugs located on the section joints (if
any) from the second section to allow sections to be
pulled together.
3. Corner reinforcement brackets or angle bars may
have been used to support multi-section (modular)
unit walls during transportation, rigging and lifting
at the split. The brackets shown in Figure 3 are for
larger units. Simple angle bars are used for smaller
units (not shown). The corner reinforcement brackets
or angle bars are no longer required after rigging and
lifting and must be removed.
4. Verify that these two sections are aligned square at
the joint in all three directions.
IMPORTANT
Yellow lifting lugs located on the section joint (if any)
must be removed once the first section is set in place to
allow the next section to be pulled to the first.
IMPORTANT
After the corner reinforcement brackets or angle bars
have been removed from the split section, set the screws
along with the rubber washers that were holding the
brackets or angle bars back in place for water-tightness.
