Foundation Work Foundation bolts are mainly used in pre-engineered buildings manufacturing, fastening heavy machines to foundations,and construction. They are also used in process-based businesses like petrochemical, sugar, and FMCG manufacturing. It is mostly used for industrial purposes and therefore made with heavy duty stainless steel or carbon steel. However, at ITA Fasteners, we can manufacture customised foundation bolts with any material of your request. The type of foundation bolt you should opt for depends on various factors like the size of the machine the foundation bolts are to be used on and the forces you expect the machine to withstand. A "steel foundation leg" refers to a vertical structural component made of steel, typically used in building foundations, which acts as a support column to transfer the weight of a structure directly onto the underlying soil; essentially, it's a steel "leg" that forms part of a larger foundation system, often used in situations where high load-bearing capacity is needed or where soil conditions are challenging.

Function:
They provide stability and support to a building by distributing the weight of the structure evenly across the foundation area.
Construction:
Steel foundation legs are usually fabricated from steel sections like H-beams or wide-flange beams, which are then anchored into the ground using concrete footings.
Applications:
These legs are commonly used in large industrial buildings, high-rise structures, or areas with poor soil conditions where a deeper foundation is required.
Types of steel foundation legs:

Individual legs:
Single steel columns supporting individual loads.
Combined legs:
Multiple steel columns sharing a single footing to support a larger load area.
