| RMD
Australia supplied equipment to a number of subcontractors
on the new Adelaide Airport terminal, the main one was
Manuele Engineers. RMD supplied ultra heavy-duty Megashor
for back propping to the primary steel beams at the first
and second floor levels to enable the suspended slabs
to be poured. Also raking Megashors were used for steel
column propping.
Manuele Engineers were particularly
happy with the solution because the cost of the equipment
was well within their budgetary requirements and the modular
Megashor allowed for re-use in various heights from zone
to zone along the project length.
RMD Australia’s Megashor is an
ultra high-duty modular propping system designed for axial
loads of up to 1,000kN. Its real strength lies in its
versatility because Megashor can be configured in a variety
of different applications, from heavy lifting towers to
travellers for tunnel formwork, bracing for excavations,
shoring and trusses.
