2 INNOVATION IN PROP DESIGN A leader in innovative design, Coates Hire has designed the Universal Prop System 30 and 60 to meet challenging applications. Able to prop up to 30 and 60 tonne respectively, this modular concept enables simple connection ensuring rapid assembly and dismantling times. Accompanied by a number of interchangeable attachments for bracing, raking, needling and framing the applications for the Universal Prop System 30 and 60 are endless. The simple interconnection of both the System 30 and System 60 props make the Universal Prop not only economical but adaptable to almost any application. In addition to our Universal Props we also have Acrow Props, Titan Super Props, Tilt Props, Mini Tri Props, Trishore Props and Mono Props to support loads from one to sixty tonne. We also have an in-house engineering department to assist with technical data for specialist propping applications. For propping enquiries Australia wide call:

3 HEADER ACROW PROPS The remarkably versatile Acrow Prop has many uses and it would be hard to find a building site where it is not used in one way or another. The universal popularity of the Acrow Prop is due to the fact that it provides the simplest and quickest method of temporary support. A MULTITUDE OF USES: The main use of the Acrow Prop is in the temporary support of formwork for reinforced concrete floors and beams. They are equally useful as raking shores to support formwork for columns, walls and staircases. They are invaluable in repair work, for replacing a permanent support, for supporting canopies, lintels and the like while brick work or concrete is setting. ACROW PROPS STRONG BOY WALL SUPPORTS Supporting walls while you fit lintels, R.S.J s or beams can be tricky but not with the Strong Boy wall support. Simply hammer the blade into a raked mortar joint and support it with a single Acrow prop while you remove the masonry beneath. (refer to an engineer for load capacities) DIVISION SECTION

4 TITAN SUPER PROPS Capable of supporting eight times the load for the same weight of its steel counterpart, this extruded aluminium prop is easily handled in awkward locations. Ideally suited for building remediation and difficult access application due to their light weight and ease of erection. Massive 10t safe working load Light alloy for easy handling Titan Super Props are available in three sizes. TITAN SUPER PROPS

5 TILT PROPS Advances in precast concrete construction techniques have brought new challenges as panel sizes and resulting loads have escalated. Our range of push-pull props suit high load applications. Props are individually tagged with service certificates. Available in 4 sizes. SAFE WORKING LOAD RECOMMENDATIONS Two props/braces minimum per panel for stability and load transfer. Whenever possible the props/braces should be fixed to the panel prior to lifting. For additional or more in-depth information contact Coates Hire. TILT PROPS

7 MINI TRI PROPS The Heavy Load Support System with capacity up to 125kN. The Mini Tri Prop allows for fine adjustment by screw jacks. The permissible loading given is for a free standing strut without intermediate bracing. Prop load rating can be increased by providing adequate bracing at intermediate points (to be calculated by an engineer). To be effective the bracing must be in two directions, preferably at right angles. In every case some cross bracing is essential for erection and stabilising against any lateral force. Bracing to be correctly fitted to Australian Standards requirements. Lightweight, high capacity, intermediate props load capacity 3m. Mini Tri Prop advantages: Left and right hand threaded jacks turn prop for adjustment Lightweight Economical savings in erection and transportation Braced with standard scaffold tube and clips No spanners required Left hand thread Right hand thread Mini Tri outside dimensions. MINI TRI PROPS

8 MINI TRI PROP COMPONENT SCHEDULE WARNING: MINI TRI PROPS ARE NOT DESIGNED FOR ECCENTRIC OR LATERAL LOADS. LOADING MUST BE POSITIONED DIRECTLY OVER CENTRE OF PROP, BRACING MUST BE IN TWO DIRECTIONS PREFERABLY AT RIGHT ANGLES. MINI TRI PROPS

9 TRISHORE PROPS The Heavy Load Support System with capacity up to 178kN. Trishore advantages: Able to support heavy loads at considerable height Fine adjustment by screw jacks Economical, savings in labour and transport Trishores braced in groups can support exceptionally heavy loads Interchangeable sections Features: Intermediate sections available in three different lengths Domed bearing plate to ensure concentric loading Head Jack adjustments fits flanged beams Quick action connector The permissible loading given is for a free standing strut without intermediate bracing. Prop load rating can be increased by providing adequate bracing at intermediate points (to be calculated by a qualified engineer). To be effective the bracing must be in two directions, preferably at right angles. In every case some cross bracing is essential for erection and stabilising against any lateral force. Bracing to be correctly fitted to Australian Standards requirements. LOAD CHART TRISHORE PROPS

10 TRISHORE PROP COMPONENTS All Trishores are made up with a Base Jack whose height may be varied between 406mm and 667mm and a Flat Head Piece with a height of 165mm or a Head Jack with a height adjustable between 387mm and 680mm. The Intermediate Sections required for various overall heights are shown below. HEAD JACK BASE JACK TRISHORE PROPS WARNING: TRISHORE PROPS ARE NOT DESIGNED FOR ECCENTRIC OR LATERAL LOADS. LOADING MUST BE POSITIONED DIRECTLY OVER CENTRE OF PROP. BRACING MUST BE IN TWO DIRECTIONS PREFERABLY AT RIGHT ANGLES. Trishore outside dimensions. FLAT HEAD PIECE

11 MONO PROPS The Heavy Load Support System with capacity up to 300kN. Mono Prop advantages: Able to support heavy loads at considerable height Fine adjustment by screw jacks Savings in labour and transport due to high load capacity Mono Props braced in groups can support exceptionally heavy loads Interchangeable sections Features: Intermediate sections available in three different lengths Base adjustment 260mm domed bearing plate to ensure concentric loading Head Jack adjustments fits flanged beams Quick action connector All Mono Props are made up with a Base Jack whose height may be varied between 280mm and 550mm and a Flat Head Piece with a height of 145mm or a Head Jack with 280mm a height adjustable between 170mm 320mm and 580mm.

12 10 MONO PROPS Head Jack Flat Head Piece Base Jack The permissible loading given is for a free standing strut without intermediate bracing. The effective length L can be reduced by providing adequate bracing at intermediate points. To be effective the bracing must be in two directions, preferably at right angles. In every case some cross bracing is essential for erection and stabilising against any lateral force. Bracing to be correctly fitted to Australian Standards requirements. MONO PROPS WARNING: MONO PROPS ARE NOT DESIGNED FOR ECCENTRIC OR LATERAL LOADS. LOADING MUST BE POSITIONED DIRECTLY OVER CENTRE OF PROP, BRACING MUST BE IN TWO DIRECTIONS PREFERABLY AT RIGHT ANGLES.

13 HEADER NEEDLE BEAMS & GRILLAGE BEAMS 11 Needle Beams are used in propping and needling applications. They are available in various lengths and sizes. NB. Spigot joints are not designed to support beam loads. Grillage Beams can be used for dispersing heavy loads on poor quality footings. SLEEPERS Sleepers can be used in different formations such as grid patterns to form base pads or sole plates to support and spread the load on various surfaces. ACCESSORIES Tube Coupler Mono Coupler Titan Coupler Coates Hire has a range of bracing accessories which are used to tie together various structures. If you have a special requirement contact a Coates Hire Engineer. PROP DIVISION ACCESSORIES SECTION

14 12 UNIVERSAL HEADER PROP SYSTEM 30 Universal System 30 is the latest addition to the Coates Hire Support Systems range of propping and is essentially a lighter version System 60. This system is more efficient than a formwork soldier. The System 30 prop unit has a safe axial capacity of 30 tonnes and is a similar fabrication to System 60 Prop Unit but with a 190mm square section. 2m 1m 500mm 250mm 125mm UNIVERSAL PROP SYSTEM 30 Holes in both flanges of the prop unit enable the positive and direct bolting of bracing members and other props. Highly efficient frames, trusses and three dimensional structures can be designed and built entirely from off the shelf components thereby reducing lead time. The modular concept and simple connection details also ensure rapid assembly and dismantling times. Needling and Propping Coates Hire has a range of propping and needling accessories which can be used as illustrated below. Screw Jack
