Why Precast?
Increase deck-building efficiency and increase deck sales
The hassles of mixing and pouring concrete, then waiting for it to cure are holding your business back. Precast concrete deck posts are the fastest and easiest-to-install foundation system available. A simple, repeatable installation process delivers consistent results, optimizes your building efficiency, and requires no complex training or additional equipment.
Engineered for speed
Building a profitable deck business is all about quality and speed. Perma-Column® precast deck posts eliminate the hassles and delays of concrete. They elevate wood out of the ground via a U-shaped steel bracket that is robotically welded to steel reinforcement that runs the entire length of the column.
Key design features
3x stronger than standard concrete
10,000 PSI precast concrete + 60,000 PSI rebar
Powder-coated ⅛-inch steel bracket
The green alternative
Perma-Column® precast concrete deck posts are an environmentally friendly solution. They contain 100 percent recycled materials and no toxic chemicals. They keep treated wood out of the ground, preventing harmful chemicals from leaching into the surrounding soil. Their lifetime service life maximizes use of resources. BUILD STRONGER
100 percent American-made and ICC-ES certified
Perma-Column® is constructed of 10,000 psi precast concrete, making our foundation columns three times stronger than standard concrete. They are reinforced with 60,000 psi rebar welded to a ¼-inch steel bracket. Perma-Column® and Sturdi-Wall® brackets are constructed of ¼-inch steel, robotically welded, and protected with a tough powder coat that prevents corrosion while providing a professional finish to your project.

LIGHTWEIGHT, FAST & EASY
The FootingPad® composite deck post footing system is engineered to provide the fastest, most economical means to raise your deck in record time. The FootingPad® system’s design is lightweight, evenly distributes deck post loads, and saves hours of back-breaking work. FootingPad can be used in most Type V construction subject to loading limits. Take a look at how FootingPad® compares to traditional concrete deck installation:
STRUCTURALLY SOUND AND CODE COMPLIANT
FootingPad® post footers are designed and engineered to replace concrete footings of equal diameter. They have been independently tested by NTA Testing Laboratories and certified code compliant (IBC & IRC) by the ICC-ES Evaluation Services. See ESR 2147.
Replaces Concrete Footings of Equal Diameter
10″ & 12″ FootingPads® will support a 4×4 or larger post. 16″ FootingPads® will support a 6×6 or larger post. Allowable loads are controlled by the type of supporting soil.
Total Allowable Load
10″ & 12″ FootingPads® will support a 4×4 or larger post. 16″ FootingPads® will support a 6×6 or larger post. Allowable loads are controlled by the type of supporting soil. 10″ FootingPads® have a total allowable load of 1,635 pounds based on 3000 psf soil capacity. 12″ FootingPads® have a total allowable load of 2,355 pounds based on 3,000 psf soil capacity. 16″ FootingPads® have a total allowable load of 4,167 pounds based on 3000 psf soil capacity.
