How do you dynabolt a metal frame to a concrete slab?

[Martinb]

I am by myself and for stability I have erected the frame by temporarily slotting the sleeves into each other and it is stable on a level slab, but now I have to dynabolt the frame to the slab. Maybe I have gone about this backwards could you please advise me on further directions.

Hi Brad,

Yes you can choose the location for the door then cut the frame to fit it. I am hope full of my friend helping me get the roof frame fitted, I assume that it would be better to fit the roof frame while there is still some tolerance then screw it into position?

Hi @Martinb 

It will be certainly easier to adjust things while the frame is not fixed in place. But once you've placed the screws in place it will be difficult to adjust anything in regard to the assembly.

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

I would leave screws out till it is all together.

My brother in law came over and helped weld some 50mm to make it level and now we have the A frame up now have to make it square again.

you could ue texta to mark all the holes then move the frame drill the holes then replace the frame and insert the dyna bolts

Hi @C3vin 

Let me tag @Martinb to make them aware of your suggestion. I was going to suggest using a 125mm long nail which you can use to trace the holes in the cement base.
