VARIOKIT VST Heavy-Duty Tower

Shoring system for very large loads in bridge constructions as well as for special applications in industrial construction

The VST Heavy Duty Shoring Tower serves as shoring and is used in projects that require the central transfer of large loads. It can be erected and used either as an individual tower, main beam or birdcage scaffolding.

VARIOKIT VST Heavy-Duty Tower in action

  • VARIOKIT Heavy-Duty Shoring Towers as a temporary supporting structure during the assembly of a steel hall at an airport terminal.
    Fast assembly

    with bolted connections and pre-assembled tower segments up to 10 m.

  • Load-bearing: VST Heavy-Duty Shoring Towers on the basis of the VARIOKIT Engineering Construction Kit safely carry up to 700 kN per leg.
    Cost-effective solution

    as all system components are available in the PERI rental parks.

  • The heavy shoring tower can also be easily raised and lowered when loaded – thanks to the head spindle and mobile hydraulics.
    Simple height adjustment

    through moving hydraulics with which the head spindle can be operated when under full load.

Variations

Through the incorporation of standardised system components, it is possible to create various shoring systems:

4-leg towers 

Dimensions of 2 m x 2 m in its standard configuration. Or in each statically required dimension up to a max. of 6.50 m x 6.50 m

Towers with additional legs 

In areas that have to bear heavy loads, the load-bearing capacity can be doubled in-situ through the use of additional legs.

Birdcage scaffold 

By connecting individual shoring tower frames, it is also possible to increase the cross-sectional stiffness in the second direction.

Main beam frames 

In the area of abutments and piers, the system can also be implemented as main beam frames up to a height of 10 m, but only with the head support.
