Acrow is more than a bridge company.
We provide shoring solutions through our Superprop® shoring systems and bridge towers. Utilized to provide critical support during construction, excavation or to support structures at risk of collapse, Acrow shoring systems are assembled using Acrow bridge components.
Innovative shoring systems for construction
Designed using proprietary Superprop® technology, Acrow provides critical shoring systems for structures potentially at risk of collapse, such as buildings or bridges undergoing construction or maintenance. Simple in design and installed within hours, Acrow’s Superprop® Shoring system is made of high-strength steel, offering versatility and safety in any vertical, horizontal or knee-bracing application in a number of different configurations.
In vertical shoring applications, Acrow’s Superprop® Shores can be used to support precast steel or concrete construction, or to provide temporary piers for a bridge or gantry. Ideal for the emergency support of existing structures to enable repair and bridge bearing replacement, the system can also serve as lifting frames to raise extremely heavy loads.
In horizontal shoring and raking applications, Superprop® Towers are a completely modular system for the support of large cofferdams and viaducts, negating the need for expensive fabricated steelwork. They can also be used as truss support systems, withstanding significant vertical and lateral loads, and built incrementally to enable use in tight construction environments.
