Product Description
The ECCL is designed to provide strong column-to-beam connections in end-of-beam applications when two beams intersect in an “L” formation on top of a column. When properly installed, this column cap helps to distribute the load from the beams and provides support for the connection. End column caps are special-ordered per specific details from the designer to accommodate the many combinations of beam and post sizes.
