PRODUCT BROCHURE
Product OverviewRapidshor is a heavy duty galvanised, modular, steel shoring system with a robust design. Ease of assembly, low cost in use and an extensive range of accessories make it the premier choice in modular shoring.
FasterDue to its modular design with minimized components required
Easy and quick to erect, accommodating sloping ground and varying slab levels
Regular patterns of easy snap on braces reduces both erection and inspection costs and diminishes site program time
SaferLight but strong - 60mm diameter high grade steel standards and 48mm diameter jackets increase the strength to weight ratio, which allows greater jack extensions with reduced bracing
EasierUniquely designed ledgers with a locking wedge, enables easy fixing onto leg clusters, saving project time
Accommodating slopes - tilting head and bases - eliminate the need for the use of timber wedges to overcome sloping ground and elevated slabs
Low maintenance and long life - galvanised finish - eliminates corrosion, minimises maintenance and extends the lifetime of the system
High load capacity up to 74kN saves material and labour costs, with reductions in the number of foundations and formwork primary beams

Features and BenefitsModular system ensuring no loose parts or fittings for maximum cost efficiency and safety.
Cost reducing designRapidshors high 74kN leg capacity dramatically reduces the number of components and associated erection and dismantling costs.
Tilting heads and basesSloping slabs and ground levels are easily accommodated without the use of wedges, resulting in time and equipment savings, leading to lower project costs.
Curved gridsGrids can easily be skewered for curved structures with 8 ledger connections at 45 degrees which means a reduced number of parts compared to a square grid arrangement.
Lighterweight galvanised designRapidshor's galvanised design minimises maintenance, eliminates corrosion and assures the integrity of the product for life.
48mm diameter jack with 500mm of adjustmentThe stiffer Rapidshor jacks provide far greater adjustment without bracing than most competitor systems leading to reductions in material, erection time and costs.
Quality assured manufactured, in close tolerance jigsAccurracy in fabrication leads to ease of assembly on site. Assured quality guarantees the strength of the material and its fabrication.

In DetailEasy to use
74kN leg loadingThe Rapidshor shoring system was designed to give a high leg loading of 74kN. This has been achieved by using 60mm tube for standards, using high strength lightweight steel, with 48mm thick tube adjustable jacks. Parts are plated or galvanised for protection.
VersatileEach standard has lug cluster disks fully welded at 500mm increments along their length, symmetrically from each end. This means that the open-ended standards can be erected either way and accessories can easily be attached.
A range of StandardsBoth open ended and regular standards are available at four sizes from 1 to 2.5m providing greater versatility.
Tilting heads and basesThey tilt up to 30 degrees, this eliminates the need for the use of timber wedges to overcome sloping ground and elevated slabs.
Adjustable jackManufactured from 48 x 5mm thick high-grade steel tube with a modified acme rolled thread, giving a range of adjustment from 25mm - 540mm.
Quick and easy standard bracesFixed length with plated forged brace ends pressed onto the brace tube at each end. Each brace end has a machined bull nosed stud welded onto it with a shoulder for positive locking action against the catch of the ledger.

In DetailFast and Efficient
Rapidshor ledgerEight standard sizes of ledgers are available from 0.3 to 3m, which gives Rapidshor more versatility.
Deck UnitsDeck units provide a safe and convenient working platform for your workers.
Rapidshor U-headsThree U-heads are available: one is 182mm wide and another is 220mm wide, and the third is the tilt head which is also 182mm.
Long and short adjustable bracesTwo adjustable braces are available for bracing the adjustable bases and 'U' heads. Locating studs incorporate a key which locates and fixes through the base bracing plate keyed holes, eliminating expensive, time consuming, tube and fittings.
