Shoring For Structural Collapse Brian Ward 1

This document provides objectives and information about structural collapse shoring techniques. It discusses terminal and enabling objectives which focus on identifying appropriate shores for situations, their components, uses, and weight limitations. It then describes various interior shores like T-shores, window shores, horizontal shores, and laced post shores. Exterior shoring techniques like cribbing are also covered. The document aims to teach rescuers to properly select, describe, and implement different shoring options for collapsed structures.

Structural Collapse Technician

Terminal Objectives
After lecture, discussion, demonstration and practice

the student, given a specific situation, shall select the


appropriate shore and properly describe the shore
with 100% accuracy, according to the FEMA
Structural Collapse Technician Manuel.
After lecture, discussion, and practice the student

shall describe and explain the appropriate uses of the


types of shores discussed. Including weight
constraints and its limitations according to the FEMA
Structural Collapse Technician Manuel.

Enabling
After lecture, discussion and practice the

student shall identify the components of a


rescue shore to 100% accuracy, to include
gussets, cleats, wedges, vertical post, header
plate, sole plate, diagonal post, cribbing and
nails.

Enabling Objectives
After lecture and discussion the student shall l

identify the weight limitations for the shores


listed previously.
After lecture and discussion the student shall
explain the appropriate use of the shores
listed previously.
The student shall describe the appropriate
nail and nail patterns used for 2x4s, 2x6s,
cleats, gussets, and braces after lecture and
discussion.

Enabling Objectives
After lecture, discussion, demonstration and

practice the student shall identify the following


shores with 100% accuracy: T Shore,
Double T Shore, Window and Door Shore,
Laced Post Shore, Vertical Shore, Two Post
Vertical Shore, Horizontal Shore, and Crib
Shoring.

Rescue Shoring:

Is the temporary support of only


that part of a damaged,
collapsed, or partially collapsed
structure which is required for
conducting search and rescue
operations at reduced risk to
the victim and personnel.

Plywood Gussets
x 12 x 12
x 6 x 12 Triangle (Means of egress)
Used to capture joints and contain wedges in

place.
All plywood gets 8d nails.
8 and 5 with 5 nail profile.

Cleats
2x4x18 when used on interior shoring.

Connects two sides (similar to gusset). 3 nails


at each end.

Wedges
Marrying wedges
Full contact with min. of 1 overhang on each

side of 4x4.
2x4x12
Sole Plate
Cut side to cut side.
Do not lift when pressurizing.
Always nail behind wedges to prevent
slippage.

Dimensional Lumber
2x4

3 nails

2x6
5 nails (3 is acceptable if splitting wood is of
concern.)
4x4
6x6 ( No test available for)
All dimensional lumber gets 16d nails.

Nails and Nail Patterns


Nail Types

Duplex and Standard

16 penny = 16d
8 penny = 8d

16d has a shear strength of 150lbs.


8d has a shear strength of 75lbs.

Nail Profile

Nail Patterns
2x4 (3 nails)
2x6 (5 nails)
Note: 3 is acceptable if splitting of the wood is

of a concern.

Application
Take 5 mins. to apply the information.

Squaring Systems
Pathegreom Theorem

Placement
Wood and Steel Structures 1 floor below any

damage.
Concrete Structures at least 3 floors below
any damage.

Principles

Double Funnel Effect:


a.

the load is
funneled through
the shores and
redistributed on a
lower floor or the
ground itself.
