Perma-Columns use the latest in SCC precasting technology to provide three times the strength of standard concrete. Microfibers add shock resistance and durability. Microsilicia enhances flexural/compressive strength and erosion resistance. A corrosion inhibitor protects the rebar reinforcement from rusting, and a final admixture is added to give freeze/thaw protection. The technology incorporated in our special mix guarantees a lifetime of durability.
The wood column is attached to a “U” shaped steel bracket made of 1/4” steel with 1/2" thru-bolts and 1/4" lags. This bracket is robotically welded to steel reinforcement that runs the entire length of the column. All the steel we use is a premium high strength alloy
purchased domestically.
A sleeve is precast in to the base of the column to allow easy
attachment of our innovative uplift or extender systems. See optional accessories section for more information.
