About Our Concrete Padstones

Our padstones are engineered to distribute concentrated loads from steel beams, concrete lintels, and structural supports across masonry walls.

Padstones work by spreading the downward force from beams and lintels across a wider area of supporting walls. This reduces compressive stress to levels that conventional masonry is able to handle safely.

Here at Joseph Parr Alco, you will find standard rectangular formats and L-shape configurations in various dimensions to match beam sizes, wall thicknesses, and structural calculations. Padstones for steel beams form an essential component in building projects where openings require load bearing support above windows, doors, and open plan spaces.

Our Selection of Concrete Padstones

Concrete padstones conform to C40/50 compressive strength class, providing the load-bearing capacity needed under structural lintels and beams.

The dense concrete composition handles concentrated forces without crushing, cracking, or deforming under sustained loads. You can position padstones in any orientation to suit your wall construction and beam placement, offering you flexibility during installation without having to compromise on structural performance.

Our padstone range covers typical residential and commercial applications, with dimensions from compact 215mm x 215mm x 140mm units through to extended 660mm x 140mm x 215mm options for wider beams. Standard rectangular padstones suit most lintel installations, while L-shape variants accommodate corner details and cavity wall construction where beams sit at wall junctions.

Padstones arrive ready to lay, saving time compared to in situ concrete alternatives. You simply bed them in mortar at the specified bearing length for your beam, ensuring building control requirements for end support are met. The consistent quality of precast concrete padstones gives reliable compressive strength across every unit.

For projects requiring different masonry products, our blocks category includes cavity wall, foundation, and dense concrete blocks.
