Installation Instructions

1. Ensure you have a proper truss layout.

2. Take special care to note any double truss or girder requirements.

3. A cut in the insert plate may be required for clearance around rebar.

4. Mount insert plates on either side of a small piece of 2x4 (approximately 12” in length).

5. Determine final elevation. This may require cutting a notch in the form.

6. Immediately after concrete has been poured, embed insert plates with 2x4 attached as per truss layout.

7. After concrete has set, remove 2x4 pieces. Now insert plates are ready for trusses to be inserted.

8. In most cases, screwing into the gang nailer or wood member should be adequate. (Check with local building codes).

9. In hurricane prone areas, stamped bearing bracket may need to be installed over the truss member and fastened to the insert plate.

10. Wind bracing will still be required as per engineered truss design.
