RSM Shim Fabrication (if necessary)
If the RSM exceeds the mounting limits of Section 6.9.7 a shim will be required.
Fabricate a shim with the dimensions of the RSM baseplate. Optionally the shim can be
made square and slightly larger than the RSM baseplate for ease of construction (see
Figure 6-23).
Figure 6-23: Example Shim Top View
The shim must not exceed the minimum and maximum thickness as shown in Figure
6-24. Use of a thicker shim is acceptable but not approved under this STC. A thicker
shim will require a local approval.
