Rules of thumb for the use of push-pull props

1 Length* of push-pull prop
The length of the push-pull prop should be equal to the
height of the element requiring support.
3
2 Height of anchorage
The height of the anchorage must comply with the require- 2
ments of the precast concrete element supplier. In normal ca.
cases the anchorage point is located at 2/3 the height of 2/3
the element requiring support. H 1 H H

3 Number of push-pull props
Every element should be supported by at least two push-
pull props.
4
4 Two fixings for swivel ends
Two fixings should be used to attach each swivel end to
the element requiring support and to the floor.
NOTE: Single fixings are possible, but in this case the
push-pull prop should be set up at an angle of approx. 45° ~ 45°
so that no additional eccentricity moment occurs.

*Note: The length calculation does not take account of the loads
occurring. These must be calculated separately.
