    Part 4. ALTERATION OF MINOR ERRORS

    All erection works will be treated as outlined in the American Institute of SteelConstruction Code of Standard Practices for Steel Buildings and Bridges (Section 7).

    It deals with the correction of errors in situations where the material is not being

    erected by the Fabricator and which reads in substance as follows:

    "Corrections of minor misfits by the moderate use of

    drift pins, and a moderate amount of reaming, chippingor cutting are considered a part of erection. Any error

    which prevent the proper assembly of parts by these

    measures, or which require correction or adjustment,must be reported immediately to the fabricator and

    erector to enable whoever is responsible either tocorrect the error or to approve the most efficient and

    economical method of correction to be used by others."

    The Builder/Erector shall immediately report to IBSF whenever there are errors in

    shop fabrication that prevent the proper assembly and fitting of parts by the use ofdrift pins, reaming, chipping or cutting. The report shall clearly describe the problemand a suggested solution will be most welcome.

    IBSF, in turn shall analyze and correct the error or approve the method and cost oferection to be made. IBSF shall have the option of:

    1. Replacing the defective material with freight allowed to jobsite by carrier of

    IBSF's selection.

    2. Authorizing field correction of the problem by a method and at a cost agreed

    to by IBSF.

    Where field correction is authorized, the Builder/Erector shall be allowedcredit for the agreed cost, but in no event shall IBSF be liable for

    consequential damages.

    38/58

    Part 5. STORAGE AND PROTECTION OF COVERING

    Upon receipt of the material, it is important to examine packages for damage.

    Builders and/or Erectors are encouraged to take prompt action where cuts, tear or

    other damage is evident. The sheets should be dried before restacking or storageshould it be noticed that a small amount of moisture is present. Damp sheets should

    never be restacked until thoroughly dry.

    A. Aluminium, Galvanized and Galvanized Prepainted Sheets

    Aluminium, galvanized, or the galvanized prepainted coating on piled flat

    sheets or nested formed sheets become wet from rain, natural condensation, or

    other causes, white rust may result.

    This may occur either or in storage at the jobsite.

    B. Formed Prepainted Sheets

    Formed pre-painted sheets must be protected from moisture in the same

    manner as plain galvanized sheets until boldly exposed to the weather. The

    sheets must be properly packed and stored. Otherwise, white rust may

    develop at minute paint cracks and at the cut edges.

    C. Roofing and Siding Sheets

    These sheets should be erected as soon as received at site. However, if

    temporary storage is absolutely necessary, they should be stored indoors.

    Where indoor storage is not possible, the procedure shown in this Manual

    must be followed to prevent entry of moisture into the bundle and consequent

    storage stain.

    40/58

    Part 7. CLAIMS

    The Owner, Builder or Erector should inspect all the materials that are being shipped

    to the jobsite.

    It is the responsibility of the Builder or Erector to report any shortage in shipment or

    defective material immediately to the owner, or customer to enable him to file a claim

    for the shortage or defective material.

    Claims for shortages or defective material, if not packaged, must be made in writing

    to IBSF within five (5) days after receipt of the shipment.

    If packaged items are found to contain shortages or defective material, these must bereported in writing to IBSF within thirty (30) days after receipt of the shipment.

    All claims must be reported in detail giving part numbers, description and length.

    This information may be obtained directly from the Bill of Materials furnished with

    the building.

    See Appendix B for IBSF's claim policy. Please read these carefully and follow the

    procedures outlined therein.

    SPAN - width of the building inside to inside wall panels (sidewall

    to sidewall).

    SPLICE - a connection in a structural member.

    SPLICE PLATE - plate used to connect two steel members.

    SPUD WRENCH - see "Drift Pin"

    STEEL LINE - the outside perimeter of structural steel or inside wall

    panels

    STIFFENER - a member used to strengthen a plate against lateral or local

    buckling. Usually a bar welded perpendicular to the

    longitudinal axis of the member. Large concentrated

    loads such as crane usually require stiffeners at the point

    of connection.

    STITCH SCREW - used to fasten panel to panel at the side laps.

    THRESHOLD - an aluminium extrusion kick plate that spans between

    jambs beneath a personnel walk door leaf.

    THRUST - horizontal force developed at the base of a column

    because of a load being applied to a rigid frame.

    TIE - a structural member that tends to lengthen under stress(i.e. wind brace rod).

    TORQUE WRENCH - a wrench containing an adjustable mechanism for

    measuring and controlling the amount of torque or turning

    force to be exerted - used to tighten nuts on high strength

    bolts.

    TRIM - light gauge sheet metal used around building openings and

    at intersections of roofs, walls, etc. often called flashing.

    TRUSS - a structure composed of three or more members so

    designed and connected that the structure as a whole act as

    a beam and the individual members is subjected primarily

    to axial stress.

    TURN OF NUT METHOD - a method of tightening bolts in a connection. A rotation

    of the nut through 1/2 to 3/4 turn beyond a 'snug' position

    will produce at least the desired minimum tension on the

    bolt. ("snug" means the point at which the materialbetween the bolt head and the nut is rigid. If power tools

    are used, 'snug' would be the point at which the wrench

    begins to impact).

    UNIT STRESS - stress per unit area.

    UNSUPPORTED COLUMN the condition that exists when a column has no lateral

    support. A column is unsupported when there are no

    cross members or braces attached to it between its top end

    and base.

    UPLIFT STRAP - light gauge metal straps running continuously across the

    purlins from the base of the building at one side to the

    other.

    These straps are normally used on buildings with a roof

    slope 3/10, buildings with asbestos sheeting, unsheeted

    buildings and in buildings with longer bays.

    VALLEY GUTTER - gutter used at valleys formed by two roof planes or one

    roof plane and one wall plane.

    WAINSCOT - a liner starting at floor but less than the ceiling height.

    WALL, BEARING - wall capable of supporting a structural system.

    WALL, NON-BEARING - wall not capable of supporting a structural system.

    WEB - the part of a channel, purlin, girt, column or rafter between

    the flanges.

    WEB MEMBERS - the system of members connecting the chords of a truss.

    WIND BENT - a wind bracing used in sidewalls when brace rods cannot

    be used.

    WIND COLUMN - a column at the endwalls of the building designed to carry

    required wind loads.

    YIELD STRESS - the stress at which the strain ceases to be directly

    proportional to the stress.

    "Z" SECTION - a member cold-formed from steel sheet coil in the shape

    of a block "Z" with stiffener lips.

    Appendix C. TURN OF NUT TIGHTENING METHOD

    HIGH STRENGTH BOLTS (A - 325) :Following are the three alternative methods of bolt tightening

    (Ref. AISC - Page 5-273 to 5-276).

    1. Turn-of-nut Tightening method

    All bolts shall be brought to a snug-tight condition (i.e. when the plies of the joints are in firm

    contact). This may be attained by the full effort of a man using an ordinary Spud Wrench. Following

    this initial operation all bolts shall be tightened further by the amount of rotation specified infollowing table :

    Nut Rotation from Snug Tight Condition

    Disposition of Outer Face of Bolted Parts

    Bolt length (Under

    side of head to endof bolt)

    Both face normal

    to bolt axis

    One face normal to bolt

    axis and other sloped notmore than 1 : 20

    (beveled washer not

    used)

    Both faces sloped not

    more than 1 : 20from normal to the

    bolt axis (beveled

    washer not used)

    Up to and

    including 4

    diameters

    1/3 turn 1/2 turn 2/3 turn

    Over 4 diameters
