STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING: post #4105 — TG.ME

Temporary Propping in Deep Excavations

On projects like the one on the video, temporary propping systems based on high-capacity struts played a central role in securing the excavation and protecting adjacent structures during construction.

What makes this approach powerful?

• simple, modular propping that spans from shallow trenches to deep basements
• adjustable strut systems up to ~41 m spans and high loads, enabling staged support and sequencing with structural works
• engineered design and on-site coordination with civil and structural teams
• collaboration between temporary works supplier and contractor for safe installation and sequencing
