Included is a glossary covering the basic terminology and instructions for shoring as well as an appendix covering the tools your shoring team will need.
Featuring: The latest FEMA and USACE updates
Additional shoring options including triple T shore, four post shore, beveled, angled floor vertical, and V-shaped vertical
