Q:I read answers to a question about how to level but I'm still wondering, unless you dig the hole bigger so you can get down in the hole, it would be difficult to reach down and using a level, level the base. What am I missing? Thanks@

Q:If you are putting them into a 24 inch hole, how are the sections lowered? Would the rod hold the whole stack if you lowered it in with a skid steer and a bracket at the end of the rod? Otherwise it almost seems you would need to drop each section.

A: Hello and thank you for your inquiry. I consulted our Production and Plants Manager, legally it's not something he would recommend as all the weight of the 5 stack EZ-TUBE would be be put on the 1/2" galvanized washer at the top of the anchor rod. However, he did share candidly that if he was in a similar situation with a small opening, he most likely would give it a shot using the method you suggest. Therefore, if you do choose to lower the assembled unit, please do so cautiously. Perhaps assemble a 3 stack and add the second two uppers by hand. Please feel free to contact us if you have any additional questions. Thank you for choosing EZ-TUBE for your project and have a great day!

Q:I want to secure a base plate of pressure treated 2x6 (7.5" actual width) to the edge of the footing. Can I safely drill a hole in the outer edge to screw the 2x6 down with?

A: Hi, thanks for your interest in our EZ-TUBE precast concrete stackable footings. While we don't recommend drilling into the footing you should be able to safely do so as long as you are at least 2.5 inches from any edge and use an epoxy anchor to secure the PT base pate. Best of luck with your project.

Q:Can one of your conical-shaped footings be placed on top of a preexisting poured-in-place rectangular footing to elevate a future lally column away from water intrusion? Thus, the Lally column is on top of your Precast base on top of the footing.

Q:Can you use these under an existing structure? I don’t see how you could stack these under an existing structure. I’m asking because maybe you know something I don’t.
