On post :
CNA Ø4.0x50 mm nails or CSA Ø5.0x50 mm screws
Wood screws or bolts Ø12 mm
On concrete :
Mechanical anchor : WA M10-78/5
Chemical anchor : AT-HP resin + threaded rod LMAS M10-120/25
Installation
- Can be used with diffferent post sizes
- 50mm standoff
- Order as separate item, use in pairs
- Not recommended when the top of post/column is not restrained (e.g. fence post)
Step 1: Measure positions and bolt down to floor with appropriate fixing (M10), ensuring the post bases are parellel to one another. (Length of fixing to be advised by structural engineer).
Step 2: Lower the post onto the post bases (2 or 4) ensuring they are aligned with the centre of the post.
Step 3: Install CNA4.0x50 nails into the timber as shown, CSA 5.0x50 screws can also be used as an alternative.
