Temporary Shoring

Temporary Shoring

Shoring design for excavations, retaining walls, deep shafts and structural alterations. From simple props to complex deep shaft schemes.

Temporary Shoring Design



Whenever you cut into the ground or alter a load path, something has to hold what was previously holding itself up. That's shoring — and getting it wrong has serious consequences.



Arion has shoring design experience across excavations, basement digs, deep shafts and structural alterations. Including independent design review of complex schemes like the Cross River Rail Stage 1 South Project deep shaft.



What We Design

  • Excavation shoring — sheet pile, soldier pile and tied-back retention systems.

  • Deep shaft shoring — complex schemes for infrastructure and basement projects.

  • Needle beam systems — transferring loads during structural alterations.

  • Trench excavation shoring — for utilities and service installation works.

  • Temporary propping — wall, beam and slab propping during construction.



How We Work

Shoring design has to account for ground conditions, groundwater, adjacent structures and the construction sequence. We work with geotechnical reports, site investigations and the project team to design systems that work in the actual ground, not the assumed one.
