The Simpson Strong-Tie CB810 Column Base is an 8 x 10 structural connector engineered to securely join posts to concrete foundations across a broad range of lumber, glulam, and engineered wood product sizes. Designed for either cast-in-place or wet-set installation, the base plate sits flush with the concrete surface to provide full post bearing, ensuring maximum load transfer and long-term structural integrity. Finished in Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint, the CB810 delivers high structural values and rugged performance in demanding load environments, including applications subject to wind and seismic forces.

Frequently Asked Questions

What column size is the CB810 designed for?

The Simpson Strong-Tie CB810 is specifically engineered for 8 x 10 column sizes, and is compatible with lumber, glulam, and engineered wood product sizes of that dimension.

How is the CB810 installed on a concrete foundation?

The CB810 is designed for either cast-in-place or wet-set installation. In both methods, the base plate sits flush with the concrete surface to provide full post bearing, which ensures maximum load transfer between the post and the foundation.

What fasteners are required to install the CB810?

The CB810 requires two 5/8" bolts for installation. The bolt hole locations are positioned to meet code-required spacing for optimal load capacity.

Is the CB810 suitable for use in wind or seismic applications?

Yes, the CB810 is designed with increased uplift resistance, making it suitable for applications subject to wind or seismic forces. It delivers high structural values and rugged performance in these demanding load environments.
