Abstract: The present invention provides a means to achieve enhanced load distribution and bearing capacity for posts in the construction environment. In particular, the present invention provides a means to secure a load bearing post to a substrate such as concrete in applications including the construction of high-rise building balconies. Additionally, the present invention provides ease and versatility in mounting at the site of the work. The application of the present invention provides increased reliability and longevity under environmental and load stresses. Further, the unique geometry of the present invention contributes to an ease, cost effectiveness, and consistency of manufacture unattainable by competitive technologies while reducing material waste and product failure.
