Frequently Asked Questions
- What type of posts is the PBV6PC designed to work with?
- The PBV6PC is specifically designed for use with viga-style posts. Its round, circular shape is engineered to match the profile of viga posts for a clean, cohesive appearance in exposed wood applications.
- How does the PBV6PC attach to concrete?
- The PBV6PC attaches to concrete using a threaded rod and epoxy. It connects to the bottom of the viga post using Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, specifically (4) 1/4 in. x 3 in. screws and (1) 5/8 in. diameter anchor bolt, for a secure and hidden connection.
- Why does the PBV6PC have a 1-in. standoff?
- The 1-in. standoff is designed to help prevent rot at the end of the post by elevating the post base slightly above the concrete surface. This separation reduces the potential for moisture to accumulate at the base of the post, extending the life of the wood.
- Is the PBV6PC a load-rated, tested connector?
- Yes. As part of the Simpson Strong-Tie Decorative Hardware line, the PBV6PC is pre-engineered and tested. It is a load-rated product verified to perform to design loads, unlike custom-designed and fabricated connectors.
