When it comes to civil construction, choosing the right equipment can make all the difference in the progress and quality of the project. Among the most practical and efficient solutions is the use of metal shoring for temporary structures, such as slabs, beams, and other concrete forms.

What are metal props?

Metal shoring is equipment designed to support and stabilize loads during the construction of temporary structures on construction sites. Made of steel or aluminum, materials known for their strength and durability, it is adjustable, allowing for use at different heights and in various applications.

Main advantages of metal shoring.

Resistance and durability

Made from robust materials such as galvanized steel or aluminum, metal props support high loads without deformation, ensuring greater safety and a longer lifespan, even in adverse conditions.

adjustability

Thanks to the telescopic system, the metal props can be adjusted to different heights, offering flexibility in projects with specific shoring needs.

Easy to assemble and disassemble.

The practical and intuitive design of the metal props speeds up the assembly and disassembly process, saving time and labor.

reuse

Unlike wooden shoring, metal shoring can be reused in multiple projects, reducing costs over time and promoting sustainability.

Enhanced security

Due to their strength and stability, metal shoring reduces the risk of collapse, protecting workers and ensuring the integrity of structures.

When should you use metal shoring in your construction project?

Metal props are indispensable for:

• Support for concrete slabs and beams during curing;
• Shoring of temporary structures in vertical constructions;
• Infrastructure projects, such as bridges and viaducts;
• Renovations or maintenance that require temporary support.

Metal shoring vs. traditional alternatives

Although options like wooden shoring are still used in smaller projects, they don't offer the same durability and safety as metal shoring. Furthermore, metal shoring is more versatile, allowing for quick adjustments and meeting different structural demands.
