Concrete Padstone 440 × 215 × 215mm

Precast concrete padstone sized 440 × 215 × 215mm, supplied for use where a bearing pad is specified to help distribute concentrated loads into masonry at support details.
This format is commonly selected where the structural detail calls for a 440mm length with a 215mm width and 215mm height.

Quick spec

Length (L)	440mm
Width (W)	215mm
Height (H)	215mm

Why this size is specified

215mm width for details specifying a larger bearing area within the support geometry
440mm length for bearing details specifying this unit length
215mm height for deeper bearing build-ups shown on drawings/specification

What the dimensions control

Length (L) – bearing length available/required within the support detail
Width (W) – bearing area and compatibility with the support geometry
Height (H) – alignment with the specified bearing build-up and surrounding masonry

Note: Padstone dimensions should match the structural detail shown on drawings/specification.

Specification & compliance note

Padstones are selected to suit the project’s structural design and bearing detail. Always follow the structural drawings and specification.
In UK practice this sits under Building Regulations structural requirements (Approved Document A) and recognised masonry design principles
(commonly aligned with Eurocode 6 / BS EN 1996), with the project engineer’s detail taking precedence.
