The Simpson Strong-Tie Post Base range is an engineered collection of heavy-duty column anchors and structural shoes designed to secure timber posts firmly to concrete foundations, slabs, and footings. Stamped from structural-grade steel and finished with premium corrosion-resistant coatings, these high-capacity post bases transfer vertical downward loads while providing exceptional uplift and lateral resistance. Vital for structural framing, porches, pergolas, and heavy-timber outdoor layouts, this professional collection protects structural timber by creating a highly secure, building-code-compliant foundation interface.
Timber Decay Prevention Standoff
Many profiles in the collection incorporate a built-in structural standoff base. This elevates the timber timber post away from standing surface water and wet concrete, preventing subfloor moisture absorption and long-term rot tracking.
Versatile Fixing Profiles
Features configurations engineered for wet-cast embedding straight into fresh concrete pour layouts, alongside bolt-down retrofit bases designed for fast mechanical anchoring onto pre-existing, cured concrete slabs.
