Description

The Magnum MCP312 Crawl Space Support Post consists of a 3.00″ O.D. by 0.125″ thick wall tube with threaded adjustment and can support
working loads up to 2 tons. The support post attaches to a 12.00″ octagonal galvanized steel plate footing which when placed on 6″ of compact gravel will support 2 tons on soils with IBC code minimum bearing pressure. The post has thin steel plate cap with bendable tabs for attachment to a new under floor steel drop beam. The post is designed in accordance with IBC, ACI, and AISC codes. Design and detailing of the floor joist support varies by project and is the responsibility of registered design professional including maximum joist span, support post spacing, and soil bearing capacity.

Installation Note:
Layout required support post locations. Hand tamp required thickness of 0.75″ angular gravel to provide support and good drainage for galvanized steel footings. Gravel should extend at least 6.00 inches beyond footing perimeter. Place footing plates. Measure and
cut support post steel tube to fit crawl space height taking into account depth of new steel beam. Cutting can be performed using abrassive saw or band saw. Place posts under beam and tighten jack screws to seat post firmly against support beam and floor joists. Bend tabs up to lock top of post to bottom flange of beam.
