Sonotube TubeBase® Footing Forms Advantages

• Cost & time efficient prefabricated plastic footing form used in lieu of
  conventional wood forming method.

• Superior structural stability provided through a continuous and consistent
  concrete pour.

• Simultaneous forming of concrete footings and column.

• The design of TubeBase minimizes the potential of the form moving
  during the concrete pour.

• TubeBase easily facilitates the use of rebar through our unique corner
  perforations to tie the rebar, providing for additional structural integrity.
  (Use of rebar should be designed and approved by a qualified engineer.)

• Square design provides a larger base area coverage and structural stability
   for the footing and column.

• TubeBase square design alleviates the potential of tipping during
   placement.

• TubeBase square design decreases the potential of uplift of form due to
   existence of frost.

• Conforms to all 8”, 10”, 12”, 14”, 16” and 18” Sonotube concrete forms.

• TubeBase square design allows for additional soil bearing capacity.

• TubeBase wedge system accommodates all types of Sonotube
  Concrete forms.

• TubeBase protects the footing from the intrusion of water thereby increasing
   the quality of the footing.

• Made from 100% recycled plastic.

• U.S. Patent #4,673,157 (footing form).

• U.S. Patent #4,767,241 (Method for simultaneous forming of concrete footings
   and piers).
