For locations prone to termite activity, a 75mm clearance between timber and ground is required by Australian Standards (AS3660.1:2014 – Termite management, Part 1: New building work).
The T-Blade Post Support can be installed in such a way to allow for this easier visual inspection to mitigate termite activity and damage, should your site or project require it.
To see what this looks like in comparison to the classic look with the T-Blade Post Support with a Cap, use the below slider:

Whether this is your first time installing a T-Blade, or you are looking for a refresh, step by step instructions are available in the T-Blade Installation Guide.
A T-Blade Cutting Schedule is available through this link which details hole locations, dimensions as well as the slot height and width.
