Column-to-foundation connections for seismic regions – Components and Design

The seismic column foundation solution is formed by standard column shoes and anchor bolts working together as a structural connection system.

Design guidance available in product documentation

Guidelines for designing column-to-foundation connections for seismic performance are provided in the technical manuals of Peikko column shoes. Designers should refer to the relevant column shoe documentation to apply the overstrength design approach correctly and to ensure compliance with applicable seismic design standards.

HELKA® Column Shoe

Peikko’s HELKA® Column Shoes form fast and safe bolted connections between precast concrete columns and foundations, or between precast concrete columns.

HPM® Rebar Anchor Bolt

HPM® Rebar Anchor Bolts are utilized for anchoring concrete or steel structures and machinery into concrete base structures. This versatile anchor bolt range is well-suited for moderate loading conditions and has gained wide approval and adoption.

BOLDA® Column Shoe

BOLDA® Column Shoe represents a new generation of high-load capacity column shoes by Peikko. It is characterized by its efficiency, compactness, and ETA-verified resistances, offering best-in-class performance.

HULCO® Anchor Bolt

Peikko’s HULCO® Anchor Bolts easily, reliably, and cost-efficiently anchor structures or machinery into concrete base structures.
