Groundworks Equipment & Support

Excavation Bracing Struts

Bracing struts provide support for braced excavations by propping the vertical faces in place together with excavation bracing frames. This ensures safe and efficient construction.

Our excavation bracing struts are available for hire. Select from a wide range of medium to heavy duty struts, which have each been designed to provide versatile solutions for your braced excavation.

Our bracing struts have the capacity to support low-load shallow trench excavations right through to extremely high-load basement excavations.

Our Excavation Bracing Struts

Compatible with our bracing frame systems, our bracing struts are used as intermediate supports allowing you to indefinitely extend the length of the excavation.

With a range of end fixtures, the excavation bracing struts can be used to prop permanent concrete structures such as diaphragm walls and capping beams.

The bracing struts can also be used as raking props for one-sided excavations.
