stall Stabilizing <br /> Systems <br /> Install Stabilizing Systems <br /> This chapter covers the design and installation of the stabilizing system which secures the home against lateral and up- <br /> ward forces caused by wind. The system covered here uses earth (or ground)anchors and steel straps connected to the <br /> home's longitudinal steel beams and/or exterior walls. Stabilizer plates may also be used to prevent the anchor head from <br /> moving laterally in the ground. An anchor, strap and stabilizer plate(if used)together are referred to as a tie down_ <br /> Follow the Steps below: <br /> ✓ STEP 1.DETERMINE ANCHOR LOCATIONS(p.74) <br /> T STEP 2.
