STEP 11: INSTALLING GIRTS ON FRONT AND BACK OF BUILDING
Girts on the front and back of the building are 1 1/2” square tubes. (see illustrations of your building size for girt lengths.)
Girts will be attached to the frame with two types of brackets:
Single Brackets, which are used to attach girts at the corners of the building or any location when the girt does not con-
tinue on the other side of a vertical post.
Double Brackets, which are used to attach girts that continue on both sides of a 2” wide frame member. If girts are
attached on both sides of a 3” wide frame member, (this occurs on the front enclosure of the building) you will use two
Single Brackets overlapped. Use #12 Self-Drilling Screws to fasten brackets to the purlins, girts, or frame. Use Pan Head
Screws on the Single Bracket Tab (see detail below).
