Specifications
The Simpson Strong-Tie PFCB Post Frame Column Base Bracket provides a complete dry-set solution for anchoring wood columns to concrete foundations in pole barns and post-frame buildings. Available with hot-dip galvanized or black powder-coated finish options, this heavy-duty metal post holder can meet enhanced corrosion-resistance needs or provide a cleaner finished appearance for exposed connections. The mechanically clinched bracket assembly improves stiffness, while large corner embossments and supplied Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws help deliver efficient installation and tested uplift and lateral performance without through-bolting the column.
Key Features
- Rigid Clinched Construction: Mechanically interlocked steel components form a strong, stable column-base assembly.
- Hot-Dip Galvanized or Black Finish Options: Choose the finish that best suits the exposure conditions and visual requirements of the project.
- Heavy-Gauge Structural Steel: Built for demanding pole-building foundation connections.
- No Column Through-Bolts: Installs with supplied Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws for a more intuitive connection.
- Removable Built-In Washers: Integrated washers simplify concrete-anchor installation and reduce loose jobsite parts.
- High-Performance Connection: Engineered and tested for uplift and lateral loads in post-frame construction.
- Multiple Post Sizes: Available for a range of glulam, nail-laminated, planed and solid-sawn column configurations.
Applications
- Pole barn concrete post bases and pole barn foundation brackets
- Post-frame homes, garages, shops and commercial buildings
- Agricultural and equestrian structures
- Wooden post anchors mounted to concrete foundations
- Post-and-beam steel brackets for exposed structural connections
- Concrete brackets for posts in exterior or demanding environments
- Black-finished pole building brackets for projects with visible hardware
- Post-frame column bases requiring a rigid assembly and high lateral capacity
Installation
Place the PFCB on the concrete foundation in the position shown on the approved plans. Use the optional set-screw holes only to temporarily hold the bracket during layout and drilling. Do not use the pilot holes for permanent concrete anchorage. Detach the built-in washers and position them beneath the heads of the specified concrete anchors. After anchoring the base, place the column in the bracket and install all supplied Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws. Follow the applicable Simpson Strong-Tie load tables for anchor diameter, embedment, edge distance, concrete strength and foundation configuration. The finish should be selected according to the installation environment, treated-wood compatibility and project appearance requirements.
Potential internal-linking opportunities include pole barn post brackets, post frame concrete brackets, concrete in post holders, structural connector screws and compatible Titen HD or adhesive anchoring products.
