25、.1 Fixing system The fixing system includes top plate, solid stem and single bolt hole. 4.1.1 Top plate Top plates are identified by classification and include rectangular and square plates with four fixing holes. The design of the outer profile of the top plates is left to the manufacturer, provide
26、d that it is inscribed in a rectangle as provided in Tables 1 and 2 by sizes A and B of Figure 1 and A and A of Figure 2 which is the maximum acceptable size. The holes may be oblong and form slots, provided the width of the slots is suitable for bolts of diameter (G 1 ) as in Tables 1 and 2. 4.1.1.
