The ABA is designed to attach wooden posts to existing concrete. The built-in 1" standoff of this adjustable post base helps to prevent rot at the end of the post. The ABA has a slotted anchor hole in the base for adjustability and attaches to the post with nails or Strong-Drive® SD Connector screws. This versatile post base makes a cost-effective option for securing a post to the foundation.

Key Features

  • The slot in the base enables flexibility around the anchor bolt, making precise post placement easier
  • 1" stand-off design meets code requirements for structural posts installed in basements or exposed to weather or water splash
  • Increased uplift loads for earthquake or wind loading

Finish

  • ZMAX®; see Corrosion Information

Installation

  • 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).
  • Place the base, cut washer(s) and nut(s) on the anchor bolt(s). Make any necessary adjustments to post placement and tighten the nut securely on the anchor bolt.
  • Place the post in the ABA and fasten using nails or Strong-Drive SD Connector screws.
