This company was started by Bill Steiner “Bigfoot Bill” while working in the concrete industry. Bigfoot was started from the ground up, with a hands-on approach to building and engineering outrigger pads for safety.
Bigfoot has designed a custom blend on our composite outrigger pads to maximize compressive loads & guarantee our outrigger pads for life. Working with engineers for compressive load ratings & GBC (ground bearing capacities), as well as being an American family manufacturer that started as an end user of our product, has allowed Bigfoot to build the best outrigger pads around the world.
Now Bill’s two sons run this business, maintaining the craftmanship & legacy of their father while working for him for over 20 years.
While building outrigger pads with Bigfoot, one of the son’s jobs included two years as a tree trimmer and 18 years as a Journeyman Lineman. Working with bucket/ digger derricks/ operating cranes from 15-40 tons as well as working with operators on 100-300 ton cranes on a daily basis. Working on the High line side of Linework was an experience that taught life lessons that would help build success.”
