Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie ECC84ROT End Column Cap is engineered to deliver robust column-to-beam connections in end-of-beam applications within wood construction. Designed for use with an 8X beam and 4X post, this end column cap features rotated straps to accommodate specific structural configurations. The seat of the column cap provides an additional surface area of bearing that extends beyond one side of the column, helping to distribute load from the beam and provide reliable support for the connection. Constructed from heavy-duty 3-gauge steel and finished with Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint, the ECC84ROT delivers the dependable performance and code-compliant engineering that structural professionals trust.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What beam and post sizes is the ECC84ROT designed for?
- The ECC84ROT is specifically designed for use with an 8X beam and a 4X post, making it suitable for heavy timber end-of-beam connection applications.
- What fasteners are required for installation?
- Installation requires 3/4" machine bolts - two for the beam connection and two for the post connection. Fasteners are not included and must be sourced separately.
- What does the rotated strap configuration mean?
- The "ROT" designation indicates that the straps on this column cap have been rotated 90 deg. from the standard orientation. This configuration is used to accommodate specific structural layouts. Note that the W2 dimension on straps rotated 90 deg. is limited by the W1 dimension.
- Is the ECC84ROT suitable for high-wind or seismic applications?
- Yes. The ECC84ROT features
