Sneak peek of a very interesting shoring project that we are currently working on.

Where to start with this project!!! Well the roof was previously lifted by a contractor that specializes in roof lifting. It went from 20 foot to 40 foot. The facility had some financial miss fortunes and was taken over by a bank. The bank hired an outside engineering firm to evaluate what was being done. That engineering firm discovered many engineering errors. It was determined the roof needed to be returned back to the 20 foot level. Which is where we enter. We quickly knew that we were going to need more help to get it down in a timely manner. We were very grateful that our good friends at Anderson House Movers and Goldsmidt House Movers answered the call and were both eager to lend a helping hand. These are just a few of the relationships that we have made being apart of the International Association of Structural Movers and the International Association of House Movers as well as the Texas Association of Structural Movers.
This project presented many unique challenges and thankfully Jahns Structural Jacking Systems was basically on call to assist us. It wasn’t just help with labor we needed, we had to reach out the DeVooght House Movers for a larger unified machine. Stubs House Movers for more hydraulic hoses and it s always great when Larry Stubbs himself shows up at your job site.

Remembering 9/11: A Look Back at How America Came Together on September 11, 2001 Twenty-one years ago today, the world stood still as we witnessed the horrific events of September 11, 2001. Nearly 3,000 people died, but, as the ashes sett...

Flat slab puncture refers to a failure mode that can occur in reinforced concrete flat slabs when concentrated loads cause localized punching shear stresses to exceed the capacity of the slab. This results in the formation of a "punching shear cone" in the slab, jeopardizing its structural integrity. #civilengineering #structuralengineering #structural #construction #reinforcedconcrete #arhitecture

Column buckling is a phenomenon where a structural column fails due to an applied load exceeding its load-bearing capacity. It occurs when a column, typically made of steel or concrete, is too long and slender in relation to its cross-sectional area. When the column is subjected to compressive forces, it starts to deform, and the cross-sectional area of the column begins to bend out of shape. As the deformation continues, the column loses its stability and collapses. #civilengineering #civilengineer #arhitecture #structuralengineering #construction #concrete #reinforcement #buckling

Heavy shoring job. This structure is be shored to allow for the repair/replacement of the concrete create columns. The lower level our shoring had to span across grade beams. Here we used our TR80 shoring system. On the floor above we used wood cribbing, our custom Jack bolsters and 100 ton locking nut jacks. Typically wood cribbing is not the best in this situation but we would have needed 3 foot TR80 legs and those have not been made that short yet.
