Perma-Columns are precast concrete columns that allow for a concrete foundation on your post frame building. These 5’ precast concrete columns keep wood out of the ground, ensuring your building’s foundation will last. “It is the first product to combine the economy of post frame construction with the durability of a concrete foundation,” said Williams. “That’s the beauty—and innovative quality—about this product. There’s nothing else like it in the market.
