Most models have triangle and round holes. To achieve maximum loads, fill both round and triangle holes with common nails. These heavy-duty connectors are designed for schools and other structures requiring additional strength, longevity, and safety factors. 14-gauge galvanized steel.
The CBSQ uses Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive screws (SDS), which allow for fast installation, reduced reveal and high capacity, provides a greater net section area of the column compared to bolts. Install Simpson Strong-Tie SDS 1/4″ x 2″ wood screws, which are provided with the column base. (Lag screws do not…
The EPB series provides a connection between a post (or column) for decks, patio covers and other top-supported structures. Added standoff adjustability to suit a variety of applications. Install in wet concrete. Simpson Strong-Tie elevated base plate allows 1 In. to 2-1/2 In. clearance above concrete. 12-gauge base plate, 1-1/16…
The ABA is an adjustable post base which offers moisture protection and finished hardware appearance. These post bases feature a 1″ standoff height above concrete floors, code-required when supporting permanent structures that are exposed to the weather, or water splash, or in basements. They reduce the potential for decay at…
These connectors are always installed in pairs and connect 4x or 6x wood members at right angles. Eliminates driving nails into end grain. Nails can be added in the triangle holes to increase uplift load capacity. ZMAX galvanized steel.
The PC cap provides a custom connection for post-beam combinations at medium design loads. Miminum 4×4 post size. Do not install bolts into pilot holes. 16-gauge galvanized steel. Also available with ZMAX coating.
An adjustable retrofit post base with a 1″ standoff and increased capacity to resist uplift loads. Features a slot in the ABW that allows flexible positioning around the anchor bolt making precise post placement easier. The 1″ standoff helps prevent rot at the end of the post and meets code…
The BC series offers dual purpose post cap/base for light cap or base connections. Do not install bolts into pilot holes. Install with 16d common nails or 16d x 2-1/2″ joist hanger nails. Post bases do not provide adequate resistance to prevent members from rotating about the base and are…

These connectors are always installed in pairs and connect 4x or 6x wood members at right angles. Eliminates driving nails into end grain. Nails can be added in the triangle holes to increase uplift load capacity. 18-gauge galvanized steel. Some sizes available with ZMAX coating.
Simpson Strong-Tie column bases, install all models with bottom of base plate flush with the concrete. 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). Strap is 7-gauge x…
Column caps provide a strong connection for column-beam combinations. This design uses Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws to provide faster installation and provides a greater net section area of the column compared to bolts. The SDS screws provide for a lower profile compared to standard through bolts.
