greener. introduction Premier Building System’s SIPs Installation Guide has been divided into convenient sections covering most aspects of PBS SIPs installation. Designed for carpenters, framers, contractors and do-it-yourselfers, the instructions and detailed illustrations will give you the basics of building with PBS SIPs at just a glance. Premier’s SIPs installation techniques are based on Premier Building Systems’ continuing program of independent, third-party testing and more than 30 years of fabrication, installation, and innovation. If you have questions about anything covered in this installation guide, please call us and ask to speak with a technical representative. A listing of Premier’s office phone numbers appears in the back of this guide. Stronger.

Depending on the site, panels should be off-loaded to a clean, flat area with sufficient maneuvering room. (A fork-lift will speed the off-load process.) Panels do not come in any particular order. This allows for minimized shipping costs by taking full advantage of the space available on the truck. It is advisable to sort the panels as you off load them. This process will require room to shift and stack the panels accordingly. Sort and stack all of the panels by panel ID number and move them as close to their final location as possible. Place at least three stickers a maximum of 4’ on center (o.c.) under the panel stacks to ensure that the panels remain flat. The stickers should be a minimum of 3 .” wide. Inventory the panels as you off-load them. If one is missing or damaged call PBS immediately. We will work to correct the problem as soon as possible. Remember, you are working with a wood product that may swell after prolonged exposure to moisture. Keep all panels and accessories protected from the elements prior to installation. If splines swell, installation may be hampered. 6 Checklist of tools • One or two 29 oz. caulking guns • Hand saw • Pry bars • Sledge hammers • Mineral spirits • String line • Lifting eyebolts • Lifting plates • Framers square • Lo...
