Elevated Post Bases

The EBP44T-TZ Elevated Post Base is an economical solution for supporting 4x4 posts at the minimum 1 inch above the concrete foundation as required by the building code. For applications where uplift loads are not present, the EPB44T-TZ can be installed directly into a hole predrilled in a pier block or concrete foundation (Reference Figure A). To resist uplift loading, the EPB44T-TZ must be cast into concrete or epoxied into place (Reference Figure B).
