Modular Wall Footer??


I have a customer requesting some type of modular pier footer that has holes cast into it into which you drive pipe or rebar?

I never heard of this. Supposedly he saw it on Planet Green or something like it . It was used for retaining wall construction.

Anyone heard of this?

If it was on Green Planet it probably will not be practical and not really be "green".

I figured that. Problem is this guy tries to be innovative. He watches too much of that crap anyway.

I figured I would humor him and search for it so I could talk him out of it.

Oh man , some just posted recently what you are talking about. Do a search on the forum. It has these big pins that you drive into the footer in four directions.

Looks ridiculous but what do I know?
