Stone or concrete pyramid unified block rests on top of a pier (perpendicular support at the end of a wall) or a gate pillar and referred to as concrete pier caps or pyramid pier caps. Pier caps are made up to secure the pillar from the elements; besides, they also add an embellished finishing touch to a wall.
Why Pier Caps are Blended with Copings?
Pier caps blended with copings shield the top of the wall, which is the most supple area, weather elements can have an impact on. Pier caps are structured, and rainwater flows away from them and the wall beneath. Concrete pier caps can withstand any erosion and corrosion that may happen due to harsh weather conditions. Pier caps are available in an array of white and other colours, and they beautify the structure and add aesthetic value to your property.
Why Do Pier Caps Project Upwards?
Pier caps spill water in four directions and are installed with water drip grooves to shield the pier from the weather elements. Ornamental concrete pier caps will project upwards to 75-mm from each face of the pier, subject to whether the pier is rendered or not. Besides, you can also use classical, circular and regency style pier caps. Moreover, you can install ornamental pier caps when undertaking house renovation or house painting projects.
