Everything you need to know
about Industrial support.
We’re here to provide the right solution for your site.
Temporary works are structures or systems used during construction to support and facilitate the main works. They maintain structural integrity, minimise risks and protect workers. Temporary works solutions typically involve props and scaffolding, slide rail or hydraulic shoring systems, shoring boxes and shields, sheet piles, pumps and water treatment systems.
To determine the right solution, consider factors like excavation depth, ground conditions, site access, load support requirements, groundwater management and flexibility for ongoing construction. For more information, contact our experienced engineers and temporary works specialists for advice about a tailored solution.
Absolutely. By involving our experts at the pre-tender stage, we can design the most effective temporary works solution right from the start and help you create a strong, competitive tender submission. This can improve a project’s viability, enhance the permanent works design and save valuable time during construction.
To learn more, contact our team or book a Lunch & Learn session. Sessions are delivered online or in person and tailored to your requirements, from our latest shoring equipment to R&D innovations. They’re suitable for engineering professionals, consultancies, building contractors, estimators and planners seeking a better understanding of temporary works.
