How well do you know Buzon Pedestals?
If you know Buzon for adjustable screwjack pedestals, you’re right.
If you know Buzon for rooftop terraces and plaza decks, you’re right.
If you know Buzon for slope correction, wind uplift solutions, and complex detailing, you’re right too.
But what many architects and specifiers don’t always have at their fingertips is a concise overview of why Buzon continues to lead the pedestal category.
That’s why we created the Buzon Architect’s Quick Reference, a streamlined guide to help you move faster, specify smarter, and design with confidence.

A Focused Overview
Instead of navigating multiple web pages, the Architect’s Quick Reference gives you a clear snapshot of:
- Why architects choose Buzon
- Where Buzon systems are used
- What certifications and approvals matter
- Which complementary systems complete the assembly
It’s concise. Practical. And built for busy pros.
Why Architects Choose Buzon
Since 1987, Buzon has been the original adjustable screwjack pedestal system, trusted in projects across more than 50 countries.
Architects specify Buzon because it offers:
- Fully adjustable heights for precision leveling
- Integrated slope correction without complex shimming
- Compatibility with virtually all surface materials
- Support for straight, angled, and curvilinear designs
- Durability proven in demanding commercial environments
- Sustainability credentials, including Cradle to Cradle® Bronze
From rooftop terraces to civic plazas, Buzon provides a stable, adaptable foundation beneath stone, porcelain, wood, composite decking, glass, grating panels, and specialty assemblies.
Buzon Projects Are Everywhere
Buzon pedestal systems support projects across sectors:
Commercial & Institutional
Hospitals, universities, corporate headquarters, exhibition centers, stadiums, convention centers, shopping centers, and museums.
Public Spaces
Parks, plazas, promenades, train stations, airports, rooftop terraces, botanical gardens, sports arenas, and public libraries.
Residential & Specialty
Private residences, resorts, restaurants, breweries, penthouses, luxury apartments, opera houses, boutique hotels, and historic renovations.
Wherever elevated surfaces are required, especially over waterproofing membranes, Buzon systems help architects achieve both performance and design intent.
Specify with Confidence
The Architect’s Quick Reference highlights the certifications and standards that matter:
- ICC-ES ESR-3985: Compliance with International, California, and Florida building codes
- Cradle to Cradle® Bronze: Sustainable material transparency
- ISO 9001:2015: Quality management assurance
When you’re coordinating with consultants, engineers, and code officials, these credentials help streamline approvals and reduce friction.
Solving Real-World Design Challenges
Pedestal paver systems do more than elevate a decking surface. They solve problems, including:
- Concealing utility lines and drainage
- Spanning unequal heights
- Avoiding rooftop obstacles
- Creating sloped surfaces and accessible ramps
- Adjusting for uneven substrates
- Working within limited clearance zones
For architects designing over occupied space, structured decks, or complex roof assemblies, this flexibility can dramatically simplify detailing.
Complementary Products & System Integration
The Quick Reference also outlines compatible solutions:
- Wind uplift solutions for exposed terraces
- Paver Defense™ Solutions for break-through protection
- Compatibility with wood, stone, concrete, porcelain, and glass pavers
- Decking systems using board and composite materials
- Integration with aluminum joist framing systems
As an expert Buzon pedestal dealer, HDG Building Materials supplies the full range of Buzon pedestals and accessories, along with the surface materials that complete the assembly.
That means architects can coordinate pedestal, surface, framing, and specialty components through one knowledgeable source.
Why This Guide Matters
Whether you’re:
- In early schematic design
- Refining a detail
- Preparing a specification
- Coordinating with a GC
- Or solving a rooftop drainage challenge
The Buzon Architect’s Quick Reference helps you:
- Move from concept to spec
- Understand performance credentials at a glance
- Reduce coordination gaps
- Connect design intent with constructible assemblies
In elevated deck design, what’s beneath the surface matters as much as what’s visible. The right pedestal system protects waterproofing, improves drainage, and creates long-term durability.
