Each CBC is attached to a square steel rig with four hold-down posts.
Heavy uses a three-frame assembly. The frame's east side bolts to the
launch table and the booster/frame assembly is rotated to vertical by the
fixed pad erector. Then the west side of the frame is bolted down to the
table.


Oops, got that backwards. West side bolts down, rocket rotates to vertical,
east side bolts down.

Kim, is this a different white coating than that
applied to several Centaur stages recently? I
recall someone msntioning that the Centaur
coating wasn't paint.


I sure don't know. I'll ask someone at work.

Both stages received white paint coatings, but no one seems to know if the
same coating was used in both cases.
