Raking shoring
B.
Dead shoring
C.
Flying shoring
D.
Cantilever shoring
Answer ( Option A)

Raking shoring

Solution

Raking shoring:
  • Raking Shoring involves the use of inclined supports or rakers to stabilize and support unsafe walls during repairs.
  • The raking props are positioned at an angle to provide temporary support to prevent the wall from collapsing or further shifting while the repair work is in progress.
  • This method is commonly used when dealing with leaning or bulging walls that require additional support at an angle.
Note:
 
Cantilever Shoring:
  • This involves support on only one side and is typically used for situations where short-term, one-sided support is needed, rather than for unsafe walls during repairs.
 
Dead Shoring:
  • Dead shoring uses vertical props to support a structure, but it is not typically used for angled or leaning walls that require slanted support.
Flying Shoring:
  • Flying shoring is typically used for larger spans or sections, and it is not generally applied for supporting vertical walls during repair work
