What makes a shoring post ‘heavy duty,’ how load capacity works at different extensions, ANSI/SSFI safety-factor standards, and when standard adjustable posts aren’t rated for the job.
When an entire section of load-bearing wall needs to come out, posts can’t sit where the load currently is. Needle beam shoring carries that load around the work area instead. Learn how it works and when it’s the right method.
If a wall on your project needs to stay standing while everything around it changes — adjacent excavation, partial demolition, a retained facade — it needs raker shoring. Learn what it is, how it works, and when it’s the right call over vertical shoring.
