Patent number: 8613573Abstract: A telescopic shoring system for shoring open excavations comprises rail posts composed by at least an outer member and an inner member, and large shoring panels. Each outer and inner member of the rail post has laterally, on either side, at least one panel guide allowing the shoring panels to slide within. The outer member of the rail post has a frontal guide adapted to interlock the back guide provided to the inner member but sliding relatively to each other. The shoring panels are arranged on each side of the excavation while the rail posts are placed on each corner holding on either side the shoring panels, which create a multi-stepped shoring box. The outer members of the rail post with shoring panels create an outer or upper shoring box while the inner members of the rail post in combination with shoring panels create an inner or lower shoring box.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 2009Date of Patent: December 24, 2013Inventor: Max Kadiu

Patent number: 7309191Abstract: This shoring system enters in the category of slide rail shoring systems, including rails, panels and strutting assemblies. It applies on shoring of excavations of various shapes such as trenches, rectangular and polygonal pits of great or lesser depth. Rails are of two types, linear or corner rails. Pairs of linear rails are spaced apart along excavation so that a strutting assembly keeps opposite rails of a pair of rails pressing against wall of excavation; corner rails are placed on the corners of any polygonal shaped excavation. Shoring panels slide vertically between adjacent rails creating a shoring wall on two or more sides of excavation. Rails have opposite sides provided with an outer and an inner guide for sliding vertically panels. The outer guide runs the full length of rail while inner guide is halfway from the bottom up reducing the weight of rail and easing installation and removal of panels.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2004Date of Patent: December 18, 2007Inventor: Max Kadiu

Patent number: 7056067Abstract: This invention discloses a device for shoring open excavations including a pair of shoring panels held vertically apart and parallel to each other against sidewalls of excavation by a pair of strutting assemblies. Each shoring panel having laterally on either end a vertical guide of circular cross section and lengthwise two identical cutting edges of triangular cross section, which are inversely arranged one on the top and the other at the bottom of panel and reverse relative to sidewall of excavation as well. Each strutting assembly has a pair of vertical struts held against each other by at least one horizontal strut that is fastened by pin or bolts onto vertical supports. Each vertical strut is provided with a circular guide channel encompassing the guide of shoring panel and interlocking with it, so that shoring panels slide independently from each other, while the strutting assembly can adjust different pipe culverts.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2003Date of Patent: June 6, 2006Inventor: Max Kadiu

Patent number: 7056068Abstract: A shoring system for trenches comprising large shoring panels and strutting assemblies is disclosed. Shoring panels are arranged in pairs against either wall of the trench and held vertically by adjacent strutting assemblies spaced apart along the trench. Each strutting assembly has at least one horizontal strut fastened in between a pair of opposite vertical struts. Each said vertical strut has laterally opposite guide channels to receive cooperatively the guide edge of the shoring panel that slides vertically within. Each guide channel of said vertical strut is provided with a locking bar to interlock the guide edge of the shoring panel so that pairs of shoring panels are linked successively on either side of a strutting assembly to create a shoring wall on either side of the entire trench. Said vertical strut is further provided with pairs of rollers to ease sliding of shoring panels.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2004Date of Patent: June 6, 2006Inventor: Max Kadiu

Patent number: 6848865Abstract: A device for shoring trenches having rails, panels and articulated trusses such that pairs of opposite rails are upheld vertically by trusses and spaced along the trench to support shoring panels which slide past each other vertically within guides of adjacent rails; the rail having a back flange welded on a main rectangular tube which is provided on either side with two lateral rectangular tubes welded offset and inward past the main tube such that with a front flange welded on each lateral tube shape two vertical guides on either side of rail, the front flanges being projecting into the space between lateral tubes creating a guide contouring the edge of articulated truss which slides interlocked within; the panel being provided with special edges that interlock within vertical guides of rail, the truss being articulated and provided with roller to displace along the front flanges of the rails.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2003Date of Patent: February 1, 2005Inventor: Max Kadiu
