*Applications

 

Backpropping

Ideal for post-tensioned or suspended slab support where high-capacity shoring is required during early-age concrete curing or load transfer.

 

Formwork Support

Suitable for modular formwork systems, slab formwork, table forms, and falsework structures.

 

Tower (Shoring Tower) Configurations

Our Alu Props can be assembled into tower formations to handle higher loads and greater heights.
