Attachment to Structures
A licensed Professional Engineer must approve the placement and method of attachment to the
structure prior to the installation of any overhead object. The following performance standards
should be provided to the Professional Engineer for design purposes; Uniform Building Code as applica-
ble, Municipal Building Code as applicable, Seismic Code as applicable, and a minimum of a 5:1 design
factor throughout the suspension system.
The installation of the hardware and method of attachment must be carried out in the manner specified
by the Professional Engineer. Improper installation may result in damage, injury or death.
The following renderings represent some of the common methods of attaching to a structure. These ren-
derings are intended as a reference only, and are not appropriate for many installation circumstances. In
the following illustrations, the structure component is shown in solid black while the attachment hardware
is drawn as an outline.
