FOR ADEQUATE STABILITY of the AllsteelCompany’s Concensys® panel freestanding wall par-titions, one of two methods of stabilization must beadhered to:
METHOD 1. - Refer to Illustration 1. A parent panelrun must be a minimum of 48" and a maximum of 12feet, and must have a minimum of two return panelstotaling 20% of the length of parent run extended inopposing directions on each side of the parent run.
METHOD 2. - Refer to Illustration 2. A parent panelrun must be a minimum of 48" and a maximum of 12feet, and must have at least two return panels total-ing at least 60% of the length of the parent runextended in one direction. The minimum length of areturn panel(s) should total 72".
DEFINITIONS:
PARENT PANEL RUN - Panels (or a single panel)configured in a straight line intended to divide space.It is usually longer than the panels used to stabilizeit.
RETURN PANELS - Panels attached to a parent runfor the purpose of stabilizing it. Return panels mayalso have the effect of dividing space.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINESFor adequate stability of the Concensys wall partition system, one of the following methods of stabilization mustbe adhered to:Method 1: A parent panel run must be a minimum of 48" and a maximum of 12', and must have a minimum oftwo return panels totaling 20% of the length of the parent run, extended in opposing directions on each side ofthe parent run.Method 2: A parent panel run must be a minimum of 48" and a maximum of 12', must have at least two returnpanels (one at the beginning and at the end of the parent run) totaling 60+% of the length of the parent run,extended in one direction. The minimum length of return panels should total 72".Notes: Return panels must be no more than 26" lower than the maximum height of the parent panel run.
When using 120° connectors, add 12" to each return panel width specified in methods 1 and 2.
WARNING
Illustration 1. Basic Panel Connection:
Always use insidechannel whenattaching verticalconnectors
At a TEE, 90°, or Extended straight connection,remove baserail cover to install vertical connector (refer toIllustration 3)
Notes:·· At a TEE, 90°, 135°, 120° two-way, or Extended straight connection, baserail covers must be removed to install vertical connector.·· Begin panel connections at a 90°, TEE, or Cross connection.·· Ensure panels are level and tops of baserail covers are even (see Illustration 6a).·· If vertical connector is not driven down far enough, or driven down too far, misalignment between panel top cap and connector
transition piece may occur. Drive vertical connector down until top of connector aligns with top edge of panel fabric.
Do not use outsidechannel whenattaching verticalconnectors
~
Position vertical connectorbetween panels with connector atleast 1" above top of panel(s)
Attach top bracket usingfour 3/4" long oval headcountersunk screws

Refer to Illustration 1. Single or double high stacking panelconfigurations must have adjacent return panels or full lengthconnectors.Use only base panel connectors that are as tall, or taller, thanthe tallest adjacent base panel (see Detail A). Substitutingstacking connectors is not permitted (see Detail B).
Refer to Illustration 2. Stacking panel configurations that createa variable height will require the use of a variable height finishkit as listed in the pricer (brackets included in kit). Variableheight configurations of 50" or more are not supported with thestandard variable height finish kit.
Refer to Illustration 3. Use the base panel hardware whenstacking panels match existing base panel configuration.When the stacking panel configuration does not match theexisting base panel configuration, additional brackets and tran-sition pieces will be required (e.g. Cross, Tee, Straight, Ell,End). Refer to the Brackets and Transition Pieces table below.Stacking panels attached to a 69" and 82" high base panel thatresults in an overall height of 95" and 108" respectively, require
