Over time, the structural supports or load bearing areas may begin to sink into the ground causing the column to fail. This causes sagging in the floors or cracking the drywall above. It may also be discovered there were too few supports to begin with.
Block columns typically are placed on 30″ x 30″ x 10″ or 24″ x 24″ x 10″ concrete footers on 6′ centers.
Block Column Installation Recommendations:
For Maximum main girder supports:
- A double stacked 8” block column with a solid 4” cap block. These blocks are constructed on a 30” x 30” x 8” footer on 6-foot centers.
For less load bearing areas, such as Porches and Sunrooms:
- We offer a single stacked 8” block column
