What is an adjustable plastic base ?

The adjustable plastic base is a modular support component designed for overhead floor systems, prefabricated platforms, roof terraces, landscape projects, etc. It is mainly made of high-strength polypropylene (PP) injection molding, with good load-bearing performance, corrosion resistance and adjustability. The height can be precisely adjusted by rotating the base to meet different paving heights and leveling requirements.

Quick-adjust support for floor leveling systems


一;Fast adjustment, high precision


  • The adjustable base adopts a spiral lifting structure with an adjustment accuracy of 1mm. Construction workers can accurately adjust the support height by simply rotating the base, without being affected by local unevenness or undulations on the ground. There is no need to pour a leveling layer or lay pads, which greatly improves the construction speed. On average, each person can complete hundreds of square meters of paving work per day.


Automatic leveling, adapting to complex terrain


  • Some models are equipped with a self-leveling head (Slope Corrector) on the base, which can automatically correct the 5%~8% ground slope difference. This feature makes it particularly suitable for non-level ground areas such as roofs, basements, and landscape squares. The traditional solution requires on-site "reverse slope", but the use of an adjustable base does not require a slanted foundation, and can be completed by relying on the base's automatic leveling.


二;Improve roof drainage and water prevention capabilities

Supports slope adjustment to achieve organized drainage


  • Some roof platforms have original structures with micro-slope design defects or "irrational slope direction", which will cause some areas to become drainage blind spots. The structure of the adjustable plastic base is equipped with a rotatable slope corrector, which can fine-tune the panel inclination (usually supports 1%~5% tilt adjustment), so that the entire ground presents an orderly drainage slope.


三;Building an assembled overhead system

 

The basic components of a multifunctional overhead support platform

The adjustable plastic base can not only support the floor, but also serve as the support base for a variety of light structural equipment. By connecting different mounting brackets or metal profiles on the top, you can quickly build:

 

  • Water pipe or air conditioning refrigerant pipe bracket;

  • Cable tray and weak current wiring system;

  • Air conditioning outdoor unit bracket on the roof or balcony;

  • Movable bracket for pipeline inspection channel; 

  • HVAC pipe fixing seat, etc.



四;Modular overhead construction improves construction efficiency

Traditional balcony/platform floors are mostly constructed using wet methods (such as mortar leveling + tile laying), which have problems such as long construction period, easy hollowing, and difficult drainage. After using an adjustable plastic base, paving materials can be directly installed overhead (such as ceramic panels, antiseptic wood, imitation stone slabs, etc.), achieving:

 

  • Dry construction: no cement mortar is required, green and environmentally friendly;

  • Standardized module assembly: easy to mechanize and prefabricate operations;

  • Shortened construction period: overall efficiency is improved by more than 30%.

五;The material is recyclable and supports repeated use

The high-quality PP or reinforced plastic base can bear load for a long time and can be reused in the following scenarios:

 

  • Temporary exhibition hall/exhibition hall platform construction;

  • Model room construction of prefabricated buildings;

  • Quick assembly of large conference and wedding venues;

  • Recycled and reused after renovation of old buildings.

  • Even if the project is over, the base can be 100% recycled or reused after disassembly, reducing resource waste and achieving green full life cycle management.

 

The structure can be disassembled and assembled to support rapid adjustment and maintenance of space

Unlike the traditional platform that is cast in one piece or cannot be disassembled, the base system reserves flexible space for the change, expansion and renovation of future building functions:

 

  • The board can be quickly dismantled and replaced;

  • Inspect the bottom drainage and cable system;

  • Flexibly reorganize different heights and modules;

  • Support movable platforms and intelligent transformation projects.

  • This flexibility is not only a reflection of sustainable architecture, but also a core requirement of modern building industrialization.

 

Environmental certification and standard support

High-quality adjustable plastic bases usually meet the following environmental or green building certifications:

 

  • RoHS non-toxic certification;

  • CE EU environmental compliance;

  • LEED, BREEAM and other green building material scoring items;

  • National recommended material list for prefabricated buildings (some brands), etc.
