[NHCOLL-L:2793] bolting down museum cases

[Gary Shugart]

Hi all:  Architects are telling us that our museum cases, stacked two high 
(VACs and wooden 2x4x4 ft), need to be bolted to the floor as per building 
code.  Just wondering if anyone has been required to bolt cases to the 
floor?  And if not, did you have to deal with building  codes?  This is in 
new construction.
