Shore Frames

Shoring systems for formwork to support suspended slabs etc.

Above is a small stage set up to stack formply, using Acrow V-Shore system.

The system consists of:-

• Heavy duty welded pipe frames of of varying heights that can sit on top of each other.
• The frames are braced together with pairs of cross braces.
• Base jacks at the bottom and U-jacks at the top.

Another view of the shores. The braces are bolted at the center and they slip over pins in the frames and secured with a drop latch.

For non glossary articles of a general and how to nature go to the formwork section on this site.
