Beam and Lagging/Plate

The beams are installed (Driven or Drilled), and as the excavation progresses, pressure treated wood lagging/steel plate is placed between each beam providing a temporary wall. Tiebacks may be utilized to assist with loading of the wall in order for this system to be used for larger excavations.
Beam and Lagging/Plate Shoring walls can also be designed as to integrate permanent wall structures (precast panels, Poured in place, or shotcrete).
