VECTOR DYNAMICS INSTALLATION DESIGN INSTRUCTIONS

Introduction

These instructions describe the proper use of the lateral and longitudinal foundation system. You may also refer to

the home manufacturer’s installation manuals that include the Vector Dynamics system as an alternate

foundation system.

General

The Vector Dynamics Foundation System provides the support to resist lateral, longitudinal and over-turning

movement of the home as required by the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards for Wind

Zone I or the Internaional Building Code (IBC) 2009 for 90 mph wind in exposure C when the system is used as

described in these instructions. Please verify state or local wind load requirements prior to installation of the home.

The Vector Dynamics Foundation System resists lateral & longitudinal wind loads by anchoring the two longitudinal

main rails. The system is approved to be used on single or multi section homes:

 •Nominally12feetto18’feetwide-(singlesection)withmainrailspacingof95inchesorgreater

 oncenter;multisectionmainrailspacingof75inchesorgreateroncenter.

 •Nominal8footorlesstopplateheightatsidewallswithmainraildepthof12”orless.

 •Additionalsystemsneededonroofslopeover20degrees(4.37in12”slope)seepage8.

 •Maximumeavewidth(roofoverhangofsidewall)of12”forZoneI.

 •Maximumpierheightundermainrails-seepage6.

The Vector Dynamics Foundation Systems may be used as a part of the vertical or gravity support system

considering that each Vector Dynamics pad has two (2) or (3) square feet bearing area.

To inquire about the use of the Vector Dynamics Foundation Systems with homes of four or more sections, other

widths, on homes requiring pier heights which are not included in these instructions, or in other Wind Zones,

contactTieDownEngineering,Inc.at1-800-241-1806.

These locations may include shear walls, marriage line ridge beam support posts, end frame ties and rim plates.
