Tim, I doubt you will find much on the subject coming out of the States.
The liability issues are so intense, no one will dare even give a helpful
tip,
for fear of the info being misused, and someone getting hurt (and
subsequently sued). That's the main reason
that most of us emphatically state: Do what the manufacturer's suggest, and
don't stray. Also
many if not most will refer your questions to a licensed professional
engineer.
Better safe than sorry.
Good luck though, and be safe whatever you attempt.
Happy Building, Geo>KØFF
