2-5,4.2 <br /> <br />2-5,4.8 <br /> <br />2-54.16 <br /> <br />NCS BCS A 225.1 (FORMERLY ANSI Al19.3) <br />MANUFACTURED HOME INSTALLATIONS <br /> <br />1987 <br /> <br />ANCHORING EQUIPMENT - Anchoring equipment, when installed, shall be capable of resisting <br />an allowable working load equal to or exceeding 3,150 lbs. (1,429 kg.) and shall be capable of <br />withstanding a 500/o overload (4,725 lbs, or 2,143 kg. total) without failure of either the anchoring <br />equipment or the attachment point on the manufactured home, When the stabilizing system is <br />designed by a qualified Registered Professional Engineer or AI;chitect, alternative working loads <br />may be used provided the anchoring equipment is capable of withstanding a 50% overload. All <br />anchoring equipment shall be listed or labeled as being capable of meeting all the requirements <br />of this section. <br /> <br />NOTE: In the absence of the enfomement of "listing and labeling," it is recommended by leading <br />manufacturers that traceability can be suitably achieved through indelibly marking the steel <br />strapping every twelve inches. This identification should bear the manufacturer's name and the <br />specification to which it complies. <br /> <br />TIES - Strapping or other approved methods or material shall be used for ties. All ties shall be <br />fastened to ground anchom and drawn tight with turnbuckles or other adjustable tensioning <br />devices supplied with the ground anchor. <br /> <br /> (a) Tie material shall be capable of resisting an allowable working load of 3,150 lbs. (1,429 kg.) <br /> with no more than 2% enlongation and shall withstand a 50o./e overload (4,725 lbs. or 2,143 kg. <br /> total). Ties shall comply with the weathering requirements of 2 - 5.4.16. <br /> (b) Ties shall connect the ground anchor and the main structural steel frame (I-beam or other <br /> Shape) which runs lengthwise under the manufactured home. Ties shall not connect to steel <br /> outrigger b~ams which fasten to and intersect the main structural frame unless specifically <br /> stated in the manufacturer's installation instructions. <br /> <br />RESISTANCE TO WEATHERING DETERIORATION - All anchoring equipment exposed to <br />weathering shall have a resistance to weather deterioration at least equivalent to that provided <br />by a coating of zinc on steel of not less than ,0625 ozJsq, ft. (0.19 kg./sq, meter) on each side <br />of the surface coated, as determined by ASTM STANDARD METHOD OF TESTING FOR <br />WEIGHT OF COATING FOR ZiNC COATED (GALVANIZED) IRON OR STEEL ARTICLES <br />(ASTM A90-69). <br />NOTE: Slit or cut edges of zinc coated steel strapping do not need to be zinc coated. <br /> <br />C CT,,~'IF IEC) 10 A N~l <br /> VED- 5P~:C' QQ-ST~'I- <br /> <br /> <br />
