Shoring comes from shore a timber or metal prop.!! Shoring may be vertical, angled, or horizontal Contents = 1 Techniques = 1.1 Buildings = 1.2 Trenches = 13 Ships 2Gallery 3 See also 4 References 5 External links Techniques Buildings Raking Shores consist of one or more timbers sloping between the face of the structure to be supported and the ground, The most effective support is given if the raker meets the wall at an angle of 60 to 70 degrees ‘A wall-plate is typically used to increase the area of support. Foundations Shoring is commonly used when installing the foundation of a building, A shoring system such as piles and lagging or shoterete will support the surrounding loads until the underground levels of the building are constructed. Trenches During excavation, shoring systems provide safety for workers in a trench and speeds up excavation. In this se, shoring should not be confused with shielding, Shoring is designed to prevent collapse where shielding is only designed to protect workers when collapses occur. Concrete structures shoring, in this case also referred to as falsework, provides temporary support until the conerete becomes hard and achieves the desired strength to support loads.) ydraulic Shoring tp fer wikipecia.orgilShoring rr evssacis Seria Wikipedia. heft eneycopea Hydraulic shoring is the use of hydraulic pistons that can be pumped outward until they press up against the trench walls. They are typically combined with steel plate or plywood, either being 1-1/8" thick plywood, or special heavy Finland Form (FINFORM) 7/8" thick. Beam and Plate Beam and Plate steel I-beams are driven into the ground and steel plates are slid in amongst them. A similar method that uses wood planks is called soldier boarding. Hydraulics tend to be faster and easier; the other methods tend to be used for longer term applications or larger excavations. Soil Nailing Soil nailing is a technique in which soil slopes, excavations or retaining walls are reinforced by the insertion of relatively slender elements - normally steel reinforcing bars. The bars are usually installed into a pre-drilled hole and then grouted into place or drilled and grouted simultaneously. They are usually installed untensioned at a slight downward inclination. A rigid or flexible facing (often sprayed concrete) or isolated soil nail heads may be used at the surface. Continuous Flight Augering Continuous Flight Augering (CFA) is a method used to create concrete piles to support soil so that excavation can take place nearby. A Continuous Flight Augering drill is used to excavate a hole and concrete is injected through a hollow shaft under pressure as the auger is extracted. This creates a continuous pile without ever leaving an open hole.) Ships Shoring is used on board when damage has been caused to a vessel's integrity, and to hold leak-stopping devices in place to reduce or stop incoming water. Generally consists of timber 100 mm x 100 mm and used in conjunetion with wedges, to further jam shoring in place, pad pieces to spread the load and dogs to secure it together. also used on board is mechanical shoring as a quick, temporary solution, however it isn't favoured due to its inability to move with the vessel. Square Shoring This consists of a timber member jammed on a pad piece on either the deck or deck head depending on water levels in the compartment and a strong point, this is called the proud. then the is a horizontal timber cut to size to fit between this and what it is shoring up, e.g. a splinter box, bulkhead or door. Timber wedges are then used to tighten up the structure if necessary Vertical Shoring This is to support a hatch or splint box on the deck, consisting of a vertical timber between the deck and deck head, with to wedges used opposing each other to tighten it. pad pieces are used to spread the load on weak structures Gallery tp fer wikipecia.orgilShoring 24 182015, Shoring - Wiipeda, the free encyclopedia = Vertical or dead shore Single steel raking Angkor Wat complex, Sketch of a timber system, typically used shore system simple combination of double raking shore in formwork. specifically for tilt slab timber raking and dead Projected centre lines shoring, shores. of floors and shores meet ri ‘ , a = Carpentry detail of the — Sketch of a timber Traditional trench Schematic sketch of a joint at the top ofa single flying shore shoring or Timbering. _ modern steel trench timber raking shore. between adjacent shore being lowered buildings. into a trench.
