Design Service for Props
When your precast panels are transported to you, it is desirable that you have a signed off prop design. This is the best way to ensure that your panels are safely propped in accordance with OSH regulations and the Code of Compliance for the Safe Lifting of Precast. Reid provides this service free to anyone hiring Reid props and using our lifting systems. Contact our engineers on cls@reids.co.nz or 0800 88 22 12 for further information.
Propping Bolts & Accessories
Reid supply the propping structural anchors specific to the propping design supplied by us to the contractor. This is an engineering calculation and bolts shouldn’t be substituted without consultation with a Reid’s engineer.
