2. Recessed post feet
2.1 Constructive measures
In a building, when deflection requirements are paramount (in the presence of an overhead crane, for example), it may be worthwhile to embed the column feet. This choice has a cost on the foundations (volume of concrete, reinforcement), but also on the steel part of the attachment (more substantial rods, stiffening).

Most common simple design
The most common design consists of welding a base plate to the end of the column and connecting it to the foundation with 4 anchor rods (see figure 16 ).
