TEMORARY WORKS

SHEET PILE GUIDE FRAMES WALKWAY WALINGS & TRESTLES

A complete tempory guide frame system to hold and support a panel of steel piles whilst they are installed. Guide walings are incorporated at two levels to provide precise guidance and support.
Upper walings are designed as personnel walkways in accordance with current regulations, end trestles provide safe personnel access and full structural support. The system readily transports as one load and can be quickly assembled on site using proprietary connectors. Working panel lengths of either 12 or 24 m (40´ or 80´) can be accommodated with upper wailings at either 4 or 6 m (13´ or 20´).
