Alshor Plus shoring system from RMD reduces construction costs.

In recent years RMD Australia has successfully released a number of high productivity products that are designed to reduce the labour required on construction projects and provide shorter construction times - resulting in significant reductions in construction costs for their customers.

These products include:

• Airodek - high productivity soffit system,
• Reflex - curved wall system,
• and Minima - modular, medium panel formwork system.

RMD Australia is now releasing Alshor Plus:

Alshor Plus is the latest generation aluminium shoring system. Its enhanced on-site productivity provides shorter construction times and thereby greater reductions in labour costs. It is also an extremely safe and versatile system making it an ideal match for all the new requirements expected at construction sites these days.

As a result of Alshor Plus being fabricated from Aluminium it is light in weight and thereby easier to assemble and disassemble than traditional shoring systems.

One of its superior design features is the unique blade and socket connection system, which enables Ledger Frames and other Alshor Plus accessories to be located onto Alshor Plus legs much quicker than other shoring systems. Further reasons why Alshor Plus is so easy to use are:

• The increased leg load capacity of Alshor Plus (up to 120kN) reduces the need for additional support equipment for most loading conditions, dramatically reducing erection and strike times.
• The high leg-load capacity also provides an increased propping range providing greater versatility in both high and low support levels.
• The increased extension range of the Alshor Plus jacks make it quick and easy to obtain the exact soffit height and their unique quick strike facility provides quick release of the load for easy disassembly.
• The Alshor Plus jacks distinctive domed baseplate eliminates the need for additional components to cater for uneven or sloping ground.
• Alshor Plus was designed to minimise the number of loose parts to dramatically improve assembly and disassembly speed.

Alshor Plus is a fully integrated system and can be easily combined with primary and secondary Aluminium Beams to provide extremely effective and cost competitive support to soffit formwork. Applications include:

• Static slab support
• Towers and high reach birdcage assemblies.
• Mobile tables.
• Flying tables.
• Props and back propping.

The Alshor Plus system has significant benefits in comparison to traditional shoring systems, and it has the backing of RMD's extensive worldwide resources.
