Assembly guidance for this frame
- Prepare the site and confirm the complete room build-up for the location. Select the actual heater with its manufacturer or a qualified installer, then have an electrician confirm the required power supply before building.
- Cut every member from Sheet C-02 board by board, then write its part ID on each piece in pencil so nothing gets mixed up.
- Build all four wall perimeters: W-01 full-width front/rear sole/top plates, plus W-02 side plates BETWEEN their inner faces. The two lengths and all eight plate runs are listed separately.
- Fit S-01 front/rear studs and S-02 rotated side-wall studs at the member-placement coordinates. Keep the centred door zone clear; fit the full-height K-01 kings and shorter J-01 jacks as separately scheduled.
- Rest the single on-edge R-01 header on the J-01 jacks between the kings. It leaves 700 mm x 1950 mm clear above the sole plate. Fit any listed C-02 upper infill blocks and the R-02 flat ceiling ties. Check the actual door/frame and roof/ceiling design separately.
- Build each bench frame with B-01 long rails and B-02 crossrails at its listed supports. Use the tier-specific leg IDs in the schedule. Retained deck heights: 450 mm, 900 mm; 44mm separate decking allowance is included in each leg calculation.
- Bench platforms stagger by 450mm in depth, highest at the rear. Check usable access, headroom, joints, loading and the actual heater clearances before building; more than two tiers remains unavailable for a new checkout pending separate review.
- Specify the complete insulation, vapour control, battens, lining, roof, bench decking, ventilation and appliance installation with a qualified installer. These separate materials and installation details are not supplied by the timber cut schedule.
Tools: Mitre / circular saw, Drill-driver + impact driver, Spirit level (1200mm / 4ft), Tape measure, square, pencil, Staple gun, Brad nailer (stainless nails).
