Column to Floor – Plate

Pattern Numbers Represented:
Floor Plate Kit, UBLPO
Floor Spacer Kit, UBLFS

Part List:
(A) Column Floor Plate Cover (1 per column)
(B) Column Plate (1 per column)
(C) Column Floor Plate (1 per column)
(D) Column Spacers (2 per column + up to 7 more as needed for leveling)
(E) Double-Sided Tape (4 per column)
(F) ¼-20 x 1-1/4” Flat Head Screw (4 per column)
(G) ¼-20 x 5” Flat Head Screws (4 per column)

Tools Needed:
Drill
Phillips #3 Bits
5/32” Hex Bit
Laser Level

STEPS:
Note:

• All Columns are required to be screwed to the floor.

• The Column Floor Plate configuration provides a stiffer attachment to the floor than does the standard Column Glide

• The Column, Beams and associated Wall Frames must be assembled and leveled before the Column Floor Plate can be screwed to the floor and the Column Floor Plate Cover installed.

• Column Plate plus 2 Spacer (D) puts the height at true 90″.

• Column Leveling requires the Column Spacers (D) to be installed between the Column Floor Plate (C) and the bottom of the Column. This procedure requires access to the bottom side of the Column Floor Plate (C); therefore, leveling must be done before the Column
  Floor Plate is screwed to the floor.

• The Floor Plate Kit (UBLPO) comes with (2) spacers. The floor Spacer Kit (UBLFS) provides spacers (7) for an additional 1.75” height extension.

1. Assembly the Column Plate (B) to the bottom of the Column using (4) ¼-20 x 1-1/4” Flat Head Screws (F).

2. Determine the number of Column Spacers (D) required to level the Column with Beams and associate Wall Frames. The Wall Frames must be level and at their final adjusted height.
   Note:
   The Column Floor Plate (C) is 3/8” thick and each Column Spacer (D) is 1/4” thick. The top of the installed Column must be 3” above the level of the Wall Frames. This information can be used to determine the number of Column Spacer (D) required to level the Column with the associated Frame Walls. A laser level is recommended for this procedure.
   Number of Spacers (D) = (T – 88 5/8) x 4
   Round to the nearest whole number.

3. Slide the Column Floor Plate Cover (A) over the bottom end of the Column taking care not to scratch the paint on the column.

4. Using (4) ¼-20 x 5” Flat Head Screws (G), assembly the Column Floor Plate (C) to the bottom of the Column with the number of Column Spacers (D) determined in Step 2.
   Note:
   The Column Spacers (D) and Column Floor Plate (C) have pins and holes to ensure the components are properly aligned when assembled.

5. Assemble the Beams between the Column and associated Wall Frames. Check to ensure leveling and height adjustment is correct and that the Column Floor Plate (C) is accurately positioned. If out of level by more than 1/8”, go back to Step 3. Disassemble, change the number of ¼” thick spacer as needed and reassemble.
   Note:
   Design condition for columns is to have two spacers installed. That is – in an ideally level floor installation, a column requires two spacers to be level with an adjacent Creative Wall with leveling glides at a minimum height condition.

6. Screw the Column Floor Plate (C) to the floor using appropriate ¼” flat-head screws for the floor type. This hardware is not provided.
   Note:
   • Four ¼” Flat-Head screws, one in each corner of the Column Floor Plate (C), must be used. When possible, use the outermost holes. The second hole at each corner is to be used if the outermost holes cannot be used. The heads of the screws cannot extend above the top surface of the Column Floor Plate (C).
   • If the floor is significantly out of level at the desired Column location, place shims under the floor plate at the appropriate corners. Shim material is not provided.

7. Ensure that the entire column assembly is accurately positioned, plumb, level and secure before attaching the Column Floor Plate Cover (A). Use the (4) 4” pieces of Double-Sided Tape (E) to attach the cover to the Column Floor Plate (C). Peel the backer off one side of each piece of tape and position them on the top surface of the Column Floor Plate (C) along each of the 4 sides. Remove the remaining backer sheet on each piece of Double-Sided Tape (E) and carefully lower the Column Floor Plate Cover (A) down onto the Floor Plate and tape. Firmly push the cover against the tape for at least 30 secons.

Column to Floor – Glide

Pattern Numbers Represented:
Column Base Assy, UBLB
Column Base Assy, With Power Infeed, UBLP
Part List:
(A) Column Base (1 per column)
(B) Column Glide (1 per column)
(C) Column Shroud (1 per column)
(D) Column Shroud – Infeed (1 per column)
(E) ¼-20 x 1-1/4” Flat Head Screw (4 per column)
(F) ½ -13 x 5/16” Hex Nut (2 per column)

Tools Needed:
Drill
Phillips #3 Bits
5/32” Hex Bit
¾” Open-End Wrench (2)

STEPS:
Note:

• All Columns are required to be screwed to the floor.
• The Column Glide provides a threaded height adjustment similar to a Wall Frame Glide.
• Before the Column Glide is screwed to the floor, the Column, Beams and associated Wall Frames must first be assembled and leveled in order to accurately locate and mark the
  Column position. The Column and Beams will then need to be disassembled in order to gain access to the screws attaching the Column Glide to the floor.

1. Assembly the Column Base (A) to the bottom end of the Column using (4) ¼-20 x 1-1/4” Flat Head Screws (E).

2. Assembly the ½ -13 Hex Nut (F) to the treaded stem of the Column Glide (B) before inserting the threaded stem into the small tube in the Column Base (A).

3. Assemble the Beams to the Column and Wall Frames in order to support the Column.

4. Level and adjust the heights of the Column (A) and associated Frame Walls making sure the column is in the exact location required. The Column height is adjusted by turning the top ½ -13 Hex Nut (F). Tighten the lower ½ -13 Hex Nut (F) against the top ½ -13 Hex Nut (F) to lock the position.

5. Mark the location of the Column Glide (B) before disassembling the Column and Beams.

6. With the Column removed from the Column Glide (B), screw Column Glide (B) to the floor using appropriate hardware for the floor type. Hardware is not provided.

7. Insert the Column Base Shroud (C) into Column Base (A) and then lower the Column down onto the threaded stem of the Column Glide (B) previously screwed to the floor.
   Note:
   Make sure the ½ -13 Hex Nut (F) is still on the threaded stem of the Column Glide (B).
   If electric power infeed is to be routed through the Column, Column Shroud (D) will need to be ordered and used. Coordinate the assembly with the electrical installers.

8. Reinstall the Beams to the Column and Wall Frames. Ensure that the Column is plumb and level with associated Frame Walls.

9. Ensure that the Column Base Shroud (C or D) is extended and resting on the floor in order to cover the threaded stem of the Column Glide (B).
   Note:
   Lift the Column Base Shroud to access the (2) ½ -13 Hex Nuts (F) and adjust the Column height if needed.

Beam to Column

Pattern Numbers Represented:
Unscripted Borders Column, UBL__

Part List:
(A) Column Backer Plate (1 per beam)
(B) Column Brace Top Plate (1 per column)
(C) ¼-20 x 1” Button Head Screw (4 per beam)
(D) ¼-20 x 1-1/4” Flat Head Screw (4 per column)
(E) #8-32 x ½” Flat Head Screw (4 per beam)

Tools Needed:
Drill
Phillips #2 & #3 Bits
5/32” Ball-end Allen Wrench or
Tight-Clearance Ratchet & 5/32” Allen Bit
Ladders

STEPS:
Note:

• These instructions deal with the assembly of Beams to Columns only.
• The appropriate Base should be assembled to the Column before Beams are mounted to the Column. Base assembly procedures are covered in other sections of the installation instructions.
• Beam installation requires assembly of both ends of the Beam simultaneously so that both ends of the beam are supported.
• The assembly procedure is the same regardless of Beam style (smooth-bottom, channel bottom, spliced or continuous) being installed.
• Columns can have 1, 2, 3 or 4 beams attached. Ensure that the appropriate Column with corresponding Beam mounting pre-drilled holes is being used and that the Column is oriented properly with the intended Beam combination.

1. Start (2) ¼-20 x 1” Button Head Screw (C) into the lower tapped channels of the Beam.
   Note:
   The ¼-20 x 1” Button Head Screws (C) should extend beyond the end face of the Beam with a 3/8” to 1/2” gap between the Beam and the underside of the screw heads.

2. Insert the Column Backer Plate (A) partially into the groove on the inside surface of the Column to which the beam is to be installed.
   The large part of the keyholes in the Column Backer Plate (A) should be aligned with the large part of the keyholes in the side of the Column.
   Note:
   Care should be taken to avoid Column Backer Plate (A) or ¼-20 x 1” Button Head Screws (C) in step 4 from falling into the Column.

3. Align the (2) ¼-20 x 1” Button Head Screw (C) assembled to the Beam in Step 1 with the 2 keyholes in Step 2. Feed the heads of the assembled Button Head Screws through the keyholes, and then lower the Beam and Column Backer Plate (A) to engage the
   assembled Button Head Screws with the narrow part of the keyholes.
   Note:
   Simultaneously install the opposite end of the beam using additional installers asrequired to fully support the Beam. Beam to Column Rockwell Unscripted

4. Assemble (2) additional ¼-20 x 1” Button Head Screws (C) from the inboard side of the Column, through the Column Backer Plate (A) and Column side and into the upper tapped channels of the Beam. Tighten all (4) ¼-20 x 1” Button Head Screw (C) while assuring that the Beam aligns with the Column top and sides.
   Note:
   It is recommended that the screws be loosely run into the tapped channels using the longer arm of a 5/32” ball-end Allen wrench. The final tightening should be done with the short arm of the wrench in order to sufficiently tighten the screws. A tight- clearance ratcheting bit screwdriver with a 5/32” bit can also be used.

5. Install any other Beams specified for the Column following Steps 1 through 4.

6. Select the appropriate Column Brace Top Plate (B) for the Beam combination being installed. Loosely install (4) ¼-20 x 1-1/4” Flat Head Screw (D) through the top of the Column Brace Top Plate (B) and into the tapped screw bosses in the top of the Column. Install the required number of #8-32 x ½” Flat Head Thread Cutting Screws (E) through the top of the Column Brace Top Plate (B) and into pre-drilled holes in the top surface of each Beam. Tighten all screws while assuring that all Beams and Columns are aligned.
