Temporary Shoring and Propping Design in Australia

This event will highlight the key analysis/design, installation and different types of shoring and propping, showing proprietary products available and innovations used in landmark projects in Australia.

Ying will present on geotechnical engineering considerations which need to be considered before designing temporary shoring including Geotechnical parameters, influence of surcharge, understanding of soil phenomenon such as heave, use of wall analysis models, benching/batter, etc.

You will hear from Sudhir who will present on the latest shoring and propping equipment used in Australia and Harsh will will present a case study on the London Hotel and the use of a propping system as temporary retention for the basement excavation works for this unique project.
