Pekabex produces reinforced or prestressed columns and column footings of square, rectangular, and circular section. Rectangular columns have chamfered edges 15×15 mm. The fire resistance class for columns may be 240 minutes. The columns may be multi-level with brackets in all four directions.

Use of prestressed columns is recommended when:

• columns are slender: during transport and work in the static diagram with brackets on both ends and high span moment the columns would require significant additional reinforcing
• there are significant horizontal loads, e.g. caused by overhead cranes. Connection between columns and foundations is realized in multiple versions assuring transferring of bending moments from the columns to the foundation.
• connection with projecting bars
• mounting of column in the socket foundation
• elements of column footings
• system bolt connections of known companies
