1.0 Introduction

Application

This Technical Data Sheet is intended to give guidance on using the Titan Prop for building refurbishment work such as

needlingor similar.

It is also designed to provide information of sufficient content and detail as to enable engineers, competent in structural analysis & structural steelwork design to safely design structures incorporating the Titan Prop.

Design Codes

The Titan Prop is a modular system primarily for use in temporary works and as such complies with the following codes:-• BS5975 : 2008 - Code of Practice for Temporary works Procedures and the Permissible Stress Design of Falsework.• BS8118 Part 1 : 1991 - The Structural Use of Aluminium.

Safe Working Loads

Values provided for the Titan equipment have been obtained through testing and calculations based on the safe stresses from BS8118 with a minimum factor of safety of 2.0 applied.

Product Use

For the handling and use of the Titan Prop, please refer to the following relevant sections and user guide.

2.1 Titan Legs and Jacks

2.1.1 Details

2.1.2 Section Properties

The Titan leg is available in one basic size. It has 4 continuous vertical slots to allow ledger frames and different accessories to be fitted quickly and securely at the optimum height. They are made from extruded Aluminium (grade Al Mg Si 1 F31) with a profile as shown below. Titan screw jacks can be fitted at the bottom of each leg, offering vertical adjustment of 1.2m. In addition to this a 500mm extension can be connected to the leg headplate to provide an even wider range of heights.

Note: Length of Size 2 Leg includes headplate and iflon disc

In some temporary work situations, the structure to be vertically supported, will have the means to support any horizontal loads which may occur during the analysis of the load conditions.It is assumed, therefore, in the graphs below in this section, that the supported structure is restrained from horizontal movement and does not rely on lateral restraint from the Titan structure. The allowable leg load is determined by the floor to structure height, the number of Ledger frames, if any, and the Jack extensions.

Note:1. Ledger frames to be fixed in the optimum position. Maximum distance between frames not to exceed 2.0m between top and bottom chords of Ledger frames. This rule also applies on floor to soffit heights greater than 11.0m.

2. On the higher propping heights an additional level of Ledger frames may be required for ease of erection and stability.

3. Minimum height to base ratio = 3:1

4. Scaffold must not be used as a substitute for ledger frames when restraining dead shoring props.

2.1.4 Load Capacities - Axial and Bending Capacity

Where any horizontal loads occur that are not resisted by the structure being supported, then tube and fitting bracing will be required to transfer those loads to the ground.

In these cases the temporary vertical Titan Props will need horizontal capacity to stabilise them. This must be via scaffold tube bracing or raking props being fixed to the vertical Titan legs. Titan Ledger frames must not be used for this purpose. They are for restraining dead shoring props only.

The scaffold tube bracing should be designed with its normal parameters in mind, where the slip value of any coupler will be 6.25kN parallel to the scaffold tube.

The slip value of the Titan Half Coupler tying plate, parallel to the Titan leg, is 5kN.

Double Bracing:

Where a Titan Prop is not restrained at its ends from rotating on its own axis, then scaffold bracing must be fitted to both sides of the prop. This is to aviod bending effects in the scaffold couplers.

Resistance to rotation on the prop axis can be via the connection to a header beam, needle beam or base fixings. Note that the main prop body and the inner threaded portion have the freedom to rotate independantly.

The resistance to rotation must be greater than the applied moment due to the eccentricity of the load from the scaffold bracing. If in doubt, use bracing on both sides.

Note: Mabey Hire are assessing the scaffold to prop connections in further detail and hope to remove the requirement to fit bracing to both sides of the props.

The graph below gives the Allowable Horizontal Load capacity of the Titan Leg body in relation to its Safe Axial Load and the height of Titan Leg cantilevered above or below the horizontal bracing.

The effective length of the Titan leg above the brace is taken at 2xL (the distance from the brace).

Design Method:

Scaffold tube should only be used to resist horizontal loads and must not be used as a prop restraint system. The Titan Prop axial strut capacity should be assessed without presence of scaffold bracing . The scaffold can be designed afterwards to resist any horizontal loads as described on page 6.

2.1.4 Load Capacities - Axial and Bending Capacity Cont’d

The Titan Screw Jack also has its capacity limits when applying horizontal loads through the system, basically dependant on its extension. The effective length of the adjustable base is 2 x height from the base plate to the brace at the base of the Titan Leg body.

Note:

In both graphs, above and on page 7, the maximum horizontal load shown is 6.25kN which corresponds to the slip value given to a scaffold tube connection to the Titan leg. The vertical slip capacity of the scaffold cilp to the Titan leg is 5 kN.

2.1.5 Elastic Shortening

Based on a Youngs Modulus of 68500 N/mm2 for Aluminium.

The extruded section of the Titan Leg, 1610mm long, under full load of 100kN will shorten by 1.4mm.

The Titan Screw Jack extended to 1280mm under 40kN will shorten by 0.5mm, and extended to 775mm under 100kN will shorten by 0.7mm.

The Titan RSK Push Pull Prop is available in 2 basic sizes constructed from steel and has an external diameter of 70mm. It has a left handed thread (black) and a right handed thread (galvanised), enabling the user to easily orientate the Push Pull Props so that adjustment can be made by rotating all props in the same direction. It can be attached, using an RSK Pin to either a Titan Swivel End or A Titan Swivel Shoe. See section 2.2.3 for details.
