Simpson ABU88Z 8x8 Adjustable Post Base

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

The slot in the base enables 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 requirements for structural posts installed in basements or exposed to weather or water splash.

Increased uplift loads for earthquake or wind loading.
