Bracing Struts will be required when the load imposed by the ground exceeds the load capacity of the leg
for the full excavation length.
This can occur either for very large excavations or where higher loads are imposed. In all cases,
Mabey Hire engineering must be consulted for advice and calculations if necessary.
Mabey Hire offers bracing struts of several types ranging in length up to 20m and working
compression loads of up to 175 tonnes.
The mechanical struts retain the loads by mechanical methods so that the risk of in-service hydraulic failure is
eliminated.
The prop bodies of the heavier mechanical struts are of square cross section to reduce the risks of rolling
sideways during transportation, stacking and assembly.

The Super Bracing Strut is the flagship of Mabey Hire’s range of proprietary
bracing struts, and has a size range from 2.0 metres to 19.6 metres.
Its intended applications are high capacity strutting in cofferdams and excavations, and propping to diaphragm
walls and capping beams.
Where necessary, axial loads can be introduced into the struts or removed from the struts hydraulically.
Strut loads are, however, sustained by mechanical methods so as to eliminate the risk of in-service failure
- The strut has a square cross-section, thus reducing the risk of rolling
sideways during transportation, stacking or assembly which is associated with circular sections
- A wide range of components is available for horizontal strutting, raking prop and knee brace applications
- Standard components are designed for use in conjunction with the Super Shaftbrace waling system
