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.

"What can be added to the happiness of a man who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscience?
All for ourselves, and nothing for other people, seems, in every age of the world, to have been the vile maxim of the masters of mankind." Adam Smith 1723-1790
