Cement-filled lally columns and adjustable steel columns—also referred to as jack posts, telescopic support braces, and building support columns—provide dependable axial load capacity for residential, commercial, and light-industrial construction. These vertical members support beams, girders, floor systems, decks, porches, and structural stabilization work. Cement-filled columns deliver enhanced rigidity through their concrete-filled design, while adjustable columns allow controlled, field-set height positioning during installation.
Central Steel Supply Company provides specification-compliant column products designed to support framing, renovation, and structural reinforcement projects across a wide range of building environments.

Additional column sizes and lengths can be coordinated through trusted partner resources when project conditions require non-standard dimensions.
Code Compliance & Coordination Support
Cement-filled and adjustable steel columns are supplied in standard lengths as manufactured, with selection based primarily on code compliance, rated load capacity, and the requirements established by project engineers or building officials. Central Steel Supply Company can coordinate column availability to support project scheduling and procurement efficiency, while customers determine all structural suitability based on professional engineering guidance. This approach helps streamline job-site planning, reduce delays, and reinforce strong long-term business relationships by supporting the overall success of each customer’s project.
Compatible Components
Central Steel Supply Company provides a range of complementary materials commonly used alongside cement-filled and adjustable steel columns. Coordinating these components through a single source helps streamline procurement, support installation efficiency, and reinforce long-term business relationships by contributing to overall project workflow.
Compatible components include:
- Column caps and base plates for connection interfaces when required by project specifications
- Anchor bolts and fastening hardware used to secure plates or structural members
- Shims and bearing plates for alignment and load transfer preparation
- Supplemental structural steel, such as beams, channels, or angles, when columns are integrated into larger assemblies
These related materials can be supplied as part of a coordinated package, helping simplify material sourcing and support the overall success of each customer’s project.
Value Added Services for Lally Columns
Cement-filled and adjustable lally columns are supplied as-is in their manufactured lengths and designs, and no cutting or end-modification services are performed on these products. Central Steel Supply Company supports project coordination by assisting with column identification, reviewing project documents to help develop accurate material takeoffs, and organizing clear component requirements. A full CAD department is available to interpret, organize, or refine material lists when needed, helping ensure accurate documentation and efficient procurement workflow.
As a one-stop resource, Central Steel Supply Company can also coordinate complementary products—such as connection hardware, base plates, cap plates, and related structural materials—to streamline purchasing, reduce supplier complexity, and support overall project efficiency. These services promote workflow clarity, reduce uncertainty during material coordination, and reinforce strong long-term business relationships by contributing to each customer’s operational success.
Industries and Common Applications
Cement-filled and adjustable steel lally columns support reliable axial load transfer across a wide range of building environments. These profiles are used in both new construction and renovation work where compact, high-strength vertical members are required to stabilize framing, carry beam loads, or reinforce existing structures. Their versatility allows them to integrate into residential, commercial, municipal, and industrial projects with consistent, dependable performance.
- Commercial Construction and Engineering: Light structural framing, column replacements, equipment support posts, mezzanine support, and renovation work.
- Residential Construction: Basement supports, beam replacements, additions, decks, porches, and structural rehabilitation.
- Municipal & Infrastructure: Maintenance facilities, utility buildings, public-works structures, and temporary or permanent shoring applications.
- Industrial: Light-duty equipment bracing, mezzanine supports, platforms, and general reinforcement applications where space constraints require compact structural posts.
