About

About Perma-Column Install a Perma-Column® precast concrete foundation system using your existing construction methods. Perma-Column® provides lasting support for solid posts, nail-laminated columns, or glue-laminated columns. The precast concrete columns elevate wood out of the ground via a U-shaped steel bracket that is robotically welded to steel reinforcement bars that run the entire length of the precast column. Perma-Column® precast deck posts are the fastest way to build deck foundations. Used in combination with FootingPad® composite footings, precast deck posts eliminate the hassles of mixing and pouring concrete. Your crews will no longer wait for concrete trucks to arrive or wait for concrete to cure. You can begin deck construction immediately. FootingPad® saves time, cost, and weight. Lightweight and easy to handle on the job site, FootingPad® composite footings provide the equivalent strength and durability of concrete footers — at a fraction of the time, cost, and weight. Patented, guaranteed, and certified code compliant by the ICC-ES, FootingPad composite footings are engineered to meet or exceed the load capacity of concrete.
