Can you provide some direction on the brackets for mounting 6x6 posts to a wood deck. The post is flush cut on the bottom, looking for a bracket to strengthen the connection.

Asked by: Deckfixer
Hi Deckfixer, this is Tim from Simpson Strong-Tie. We suggest checking out something like our RPBZ or HBC, which can be found on pages 76-77 and 86-87 of our Canadian connector catalogue (https://www.strongtie.com/resources/literature/wood-construction-connectors-catalog-cn). To order, please contact Lowe's Canada.

Can these be used to mount posts for a pergola into a previously built wooden deck? 

Asked by: Mc111
Hello, Note that E-Z Base is not a load-rated part which is intended for support of short (under 48") posts that are not acting as guards. You may want to consider our RPBZ bases instead, however design and detailing of the structure and of post connections need to be done by a qualified designer. Regards
