Simpson Strong-Tie PPBF44 PPBF™ Adjustable Porch Post Base for 4x4The PPBF™ adjustable porch post base safely supports porch framing through all phases of construction, eliminating the need for temporary vertical support and providing a stronger structure for contractors working on and around the porch roof. The seat adjusts to accommodate varying porch-slab thicknesses from 4 in. to 12 in., providing contractors with one-time installation of the post base and post at the beginning of construction. This adjustability gives contractors the option to set the post base at the correct height before the porch concrete slab is poured. The PPBF fastens to the footing with two Titen Turbo™ concrete screws when framing the porch roof. The height of the post base can be adjusted by threading the seat up or down onto the threaded rod. The PPBF is tested and load rated to support the weight of most framed porches and overhangs before the post base is embedded in concrete. The table also provides load values for the base after it has been embedded in concrete.This Simpson product is designed for construction, connector, fastening, anchoring, and structural applications where dependable performance, durability, and jobsite-ready installation matter.Features Makes the jobsite safer for installers and inspectors Allows builders to attach the post framing and post base to the foundation before the porch slab is poured with minimum 4-in. and maximum 12-in. height adjustability Saves time and money by eliminating the need for temporary supports and streamlines the subcontractor scheduling process Nominal post size: 4x4 Seat: 12 gauge Base plate: 3 gauge Threaded rod: 3/4-in. diameter Finish: galvanized and Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint Specifications ERP Part Number: PPBF44 UPC: 707392014362 GTIN: 707392014362 Feature 01: Makes the jobsite safer for installers and inspectors Feature 02: Allows builders to attach the post framing and post base to the foundation before the porch slab is poured with minimum 4-in. and maximum 12-in. height adjustability Feature 03: Saves time and money by eliminating the need for temporary supports and streamlines the subcontractor scheduling process Feature 04: Nominal post size: 4x4 Feature 05: Seat: 12 gauge Feature 06: Base plate: 3 gauge Feature 07: Threaded rod: 3/4-in. diameter Feature 08: Finish: galvanized and Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint Install With: (2) 3/16 in. x 1-3/4 in.
