EPB Elevated Post Bases

Material: EPB44A - 14 ga.; others - 12 ga. base plate, 1 1/16" OD x 8" pipe

Finish: EPB44A - Galvanized; all others - Simpson Strong-Tie® gray paint (may be ordered HDG); see Corrosion Information.

Installation:

Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes.
Allows 1" to 2 1/2" clearance above concrete, 2" for EPB44A.
Post bases do not provide adequate resistance to prevent members from rotating about the base and therefore are not recommended for non top-supported installations (such as fences or unbraced carports).

Some products may be installed with our new Strong-Drive® SD screw - click here for details

Options: 12" pipe available for EPB44, 46, 66; specify “-12” after model number.

Some of these models are load-rated for use with Strong-Drive® SD Screws.
See the load values.

Loads may not be increased for short-term loading.
EPB44 and EPB46 have extra nail holes; only eight must be filled to achieve table loads.
Specifier to design concrete for shear capacity.
Downloads shall be reduced where limited by buckling capacity of the joist.
Structural composite lumber columns have sides that show either the wide face or the edges of the lumber strands/veneers. For SCL columns, the fasteners for these products should always be installed in the wide face.
Testing to new ICC-ES acceptance criteria to be completed in 2009. Reference this web site for the latest loads and information.
NAILS: 16d = 0.162" dia. x 3 1/2" long. See other nail sizes and information.
