Prop Head For Formwork Shoring And Method Of Using Same
Disclosed is a prop head for connecting a formwork prop to an elevated concrete slab formwork waler table or the like; said waler table having a plurality of support beams having a cavity or gap space adapted to receive an upper part of said prop head, said table being adapted to receive a bolt across said gap or cavity; wherein said prop head has: a central plate having a front end, a rear end and two sides, said sides having downwardly projecting lower L-shape angle brackets therefrom, said brackets being adapted to receive the top of said prop in a horizontally sliding manner from said front end; a downwardly projecting stop wall from the rear end of said central plate, adapted to abut the upper part of said prop; an upper turret, rising from said lower plate, adapted to fit in said cavity or gap space; and having one or more laterally located slots or holes adapted to correspond with the position of complementary holes or slots in said support beams; and a hole or slot in said central plate adjacent said front end and adapted to receive a locking pin, bolt or wedge thereby to prevent said prop being removed from said brackets. Also disclosed is a method of first securely connecting the prop to a support beam of a waler table and subsequently sliding the T-shaped end of a prop into connection with the prop head and then securing with a locking member.
