When selecting Simpson Strong-Tie post bases, it’s essential to know the difference between rough and nominal lumber:

Nominal Lumber: Standard milled wood with smaller actual dimensions (e.g., a 4x4 measures 3.5" x 3.5"). Most post bases are designed for nominal sizes.
Rough Lumber: Unsurfaced wood retaining larger dimensions (e.g., a 4x4 measures 4" x 4"). Specialized post bases or oversized options are required.

Ensure a proper fit for secure fastening and structural integrity. Simpson Strong-Tie labels their post bases for compatibility with rough or nominal lumber. Always measure your lumber before selecting a base.
