Feature

●Raise Your Unlevel Flooring: The PowerPost Crawl Space Stabilizer is an extremely high-strength, adjustable steel column designed specifically to stabilize or raise sinking and unlevel floors over crawlspaces. Designed to support axial compression loads only, this should not be used in applications where the system is intended to resist lateral loads.
●Ideal Use: The PowerPost Poured Footing is designed to quickly install into a crawl space and repair sinking and unlevel flooring above. It may also be used as a supplemental column support where an existing column and pier foundation has settled.
●Disclaimer: While the rigidity and strength of the PowerPost components benefits installation and overall product stability, the allowable load applied to the PowerPost system will nearly always be limited by the bearing capacity of the existing soil.
●Foundation Adjustment: Well-compacted crushed stone or recycled concrete base is a proven method to increase support for the higher bearing pressure conditions immediately below the concrete footing, and then to absorb and distribute lower pressures to the existing soils. Should settlement of the PowerPost system occur, adjustments can be made easily by extending the all-thread rod.
●Composition: The tube steel used for the PowerPost is manufactured with a triple-layer, in-line galvanized coating. The remaining steel components of the PowerPost come standard as zinc-plated in accordance with ASTM B633, “Standard Specification for Electrodeposited Coating of Zinc on Iron and Steel”.
