During the modification of floor areas within existing buildings, the Architect will often ask the Engineer to remove vertical structural elements and replace them with transfer beams and grillages. To allow this, it is necessary to support the service loads of the structure, demolish the unwanted element and transfer the loads onto the replacement structure.
Using heavy duty props with load capacities of up to 1000 kN (100 tonne), in conjunction with fabricated structural steel beams of appropriate size, we are able to erect systems to carry the heaviest of loads.  Where necessary, foundations, either piled or pad, can be installed to support the temporary loads. Any special welding or fabrication work can be undertaken by our own engineers to suit the particular situation on site.
Work is undertaken by our own labour, all of whom have been trained in the handling of heavy equipment and working in the most difficult of site environments. They are all experienced in this type of work and bring many years of their varied experience to bear on every job that they work on.

The team allocated to each job will be carefully selected and sized to suit the required rate of progress and will arrive on
