2. Recommended Method for Full Floor Installation

Fan Placement Diagram
For uniform air flow, place the fans in relation to the unloading tube as shown in Figure 2A. Floor planks should be perpendicular to the unloading tube.
Figure 2A

2. Recommended Method for Full Floor Installation
Chalked lines referred to Step 2.
Grain Systems Recommended Method for Full Floor Installation
Using the GSI recommended method for full floor installation should save construction time and eliminate the problem of improper installation which could invalidate your warranty. Note the following dimensions as shown in Figure 2B.
• Dimension “A” is the leg-to-leg spacing along the centerline of a given plank.
• Dimension “B” is the amount of stagger between supports under adjacent planks and is half of Dimension “A”.
• Dimension “C” is the distance from the center of the unload auger to the nearest rows of supports and is half of Dimension “B”.
Dimensions “A”, “B” and “C” are shown on the appropriate grandstand layout for wall heights under 32'. For taller bins, grandstand quantity as well as Dimensions “A” and “B” are given on Page 17 and Page 18 for 20 gauge.
1. Layout centerlines of tank being sure one centerline is in line with the direction of the floorin g planks
while the other centerline is perpendicular with the flooring planks. (See Figure 2B.)
2. Measure over “C” Dimension from centerline that is perpendicular to the direction of the flooring
planks. Do this at each end of the bin. Strike a chalk line here. (See Figure 2B.)
3. Measure over “B” Dimension from the previously (chalked in step #2) and strike a chalk line here.
Continue this procedures until the bin wall is reached in both directions. (See Figure 2B.)
Figure 2B
2. Recommended Method for Full Floor Installation
IMPORTANT: First piece of flooring must start at the
proper distance from centerline of bin. Refer to floor layout on Page 15. First piece may need to be trimmed for length to fit at the proper location.
4. When completed there should be a set of parallel lines “B” dimensions apart.
5. Start at bin wall with shortest floor piece.
SUPPORT LAYOUT FOR CORRECT BIN DIAMETER AND SUPPORT SPACING.
of floor piece is facing bin wall and is at designated distance from the wall. (The open channel edge of floor must be facing the center of the bin.)
6. POSITION THE NEXT ROW OF SUPPORTS ACCORDING TO THE CHALK LINES and support
layout. The straight tab should “snap” under the first (previous) floor piece. After the supports in the row are correctly positioned, install the next floor piece by hooking the open channel edge under the outside hooks of the floor supports. Push down sharply on the edge of the floor piece until it snaps into the previous floor piece. (See Figure 2C.) Continue this process for the rest of the floor cutting planks for center and intermediate wells as needed. See Figure 5A on Page 14 for center well support locations.
NOTE: Whenever there is more than Dimension “B” divided by three inches (B/3") of plank unsupported
beside the bin wall, there should be a support on that plank or a support on each of the planks adjacent to it such that no more than Dimension “B” divided by three inches (B/3") is unsupported.

2. Recommended Method for Full Floor Installation
Installing the Undersplice
The undersplice should be installed underneath the planks at the split after both plank lengths have been butted together. Each splice has to be laid as each row of planks are laid rather than after all have been placed. Figure 2D shows the layout of the undersplice plates a nd t he screw pattern used to secure them.
Figure 2D Pattern for Fastening Splice to Planks
2. Recommended Method for Full Floor Installation
Installation Instructions
1. When a splice is needed, plank length A as described in the floor manual should be installed alongside plank length B.
2. The under-splice should then be installed under the split of plank A and B. The splice should extend 3" under each plank. The splice should be screwed in place as shown in Figure 2D on Page 10.
3. This process will be repeated for all plank locations requiring a splice.

4. Flashing Installation

Grain Systems Formed Flashing Installation
If a bin sweep auger will be used, overlap flashing so that the sweep will climb up on to the next flashing section when rotating (usually clockwise). (See Figure 4A.) This will prevent the rotating/slipping outer wheel of the sweep from catching on the flashing edges. (All GSI power sweeps and carry-in sweeps
manufactured after April 2002 run clockwise.)
After floor is in place, place 1-1/4" bolts through pre-punched holes in sidewall. Bolt heads should be on outside of bin. See Figure 4B to determine the correct sequence for placing the nuts and washers. Finger tighten the nuts until all flashing is installed, then go back and fully tighten. While holding the flashing flat and pushing in towards the bin wall, fasten the flashing to the floor with two (2) sheet metal screws.

* For Aeration Systems recessed in the concrete, add 1 ring for proper spacing. When using FL-3102-3 or FL-3102-6 (3", 6") Grandstands, increase the listed quantities by 33%
(Standard Quantity x 1.33). Quantities of Grandstands are minimum required for installation - Due to varying conditions and construction techniques at floor and wall penetrations, additional supports may need to be ordered.
How to read the chart: For example, a 12' diameter bin with 7 rings would have spacing of 57/27 (the top
numbers). Meaning A=57" and B=27". The number of supports needed would be 62, (the bottom number).

* For Aeration Systems recessed in the concrete, add 1 ring for proper spacing.
When using FL-3102-3 or FL-3102-6 (3", 6") Grandstands, increase the listed quantities by 33% (Standard Quantity x 1.33). Quantities of Grandstands are minimum required for installation - Due to varying conditions and construction techniques at floor and wall penetrations, additional supports may need to be ordered.
How to read the chart: For example, a 12' diameter bin with 5 rings would have spacing of 54/27 (the top
numbers). Meaning A=54" and B=27". The number of supports needed would be 62, (the bottom number).

9. Flashing Support at Stiffeners

Stiffener Flashing Support Instructions for Internal Universal Stiffeners
1. Install the floor and support system, cutting the floor to go around the internal stiffeners as required.
2. Break the stiffener flashing support (SS-6984) into its three (3) components.
3. Lay the flashing supports on top of the flooring and weld the flashing supports to the stiffener as close as possible. Fasten the flashing to the wall, flashing support and floor. Seal all spaces by welding or caulking.
4. Paint all welds with good quality zinc rich paint.
5. Stiffener flashing supports (SS-6984) must be ordered separately from the standard floor and flashing. (See Figure 9A.)

10. Air Flow Support Instructions

Installation of Air Flow Supports
1. Determine the spacing and quantity of air flow supports required from the chart on Page 22. Make sure that the correct supports have been ordered for use with the proper depth of plank (either 1-1/8" or 1-3/8" deep).
2. Mark location of center of bin.
3. Install discharge auger.
4. Mark spacing lines parallel to discharge auger.
5. Start on the side of the bin opposite from the discharge auger and place the first two (2) rows of supports on the spacing lines. Note that air flow supports are installed at an angle in an overlapping pattern so the ends will overlap. See floor layouts in Figure 10B on Page 23.
6. Install the channel lock flooring on the first two (2) rows of supports and secure in place with some bin wall flashing.
7. Finish placing supports on the spacing lines and installing floor planks.
a. Single supports are used next to the bin wall and at the ends of split floor planks in order to
maintain the floor manufacturer’s recommended minimum distance from the end of a plank to a support.
b. Double supports are used at the sump and along the sides of the discharge auger for spacing of
16" or less and for recirculating bin equipment.
c. Full supports may have to be overlapped or angled to provide support at walls and to maintain
spacing and flashing requirements.
10. Air Flow Support Instructions
The following Figure 10A show methods of support placement to achieve the necessary spacing close to discharge augers and sumps.

1. Use a maximum spacing of 16" for perforated corrugated flooring.
2. The number of supports listed is based on the maximum peaked capacity of each bin.
3. Use extra single supports for split floors.
4. Extra supports are required for grain recirculating equipment. Use the manufacturer’s recommendation for the number and spacing of extra supports. NOTE: For grain flows, air flow
supports are doubled in a 14' diameter in the center of the floor.
5. Contact a representative for air flow supports required for larger bins and deeper grain depths.
6. * Increase the number of supports by 5% when used with 6-3/4" wide MFS
floor planks.
