      The BCS is designed to connect a multi-ply member beam to a post. The dimensions of this post cap accommodate the narrower width of multiple 2X members on top of the post. The BCS provides both lateral and uplift support and features double-shear nailing that distributes the load through two points for optimal strength.

      • Provides a positive connection for a post to a wood deck
      • Stronger than angled nailing or screw fastening
      • Reduces the chance of the post splitting and eliminates nailing into end grain
      • Not recommended for non top-supported installations (such as fences or unbraced carports)
      • ZMAX® galvanization offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications
      • Opposing flanges provide increased lateral resistance
      • Sized specifically for multi-2X widths
      • Do not install bolts into pilot holes
      • Install dome nails on beam; drive nails at an angle through the beam into the post below to achieve the table loads
