ISCHEBECK TITAN offers several shoring prop systems designed for different jobsite requirements. Its lineup includes the versatile TITAN S for a broad range of projects, the high-capacity TITAN E35, and the TITAN Adjustable Aluminum Leg, which can be configured into shoring towers up to 24.6 meters high.

This article outlines the applications, load capacities, and key features of each ISCHEBECK TITAN shoring prop system.

ISCHEBECK TITAN Shoring Prop Systems

TITAN S Telescopic Prop

Applications for the TITAN S Telescopic Prop

The TITAN S Telescopic Prop is a versatile system designed for standard floor heights. It can be used on projects ranging from residential buildings to commercial facilities. In addition to supporting cast-in-place concrete slabs, it can provide temporary reinforcement for existing floors and support precast floor panels.

The system is available in four sizes: 2, 3, 4, and 7. Allowable loads vary according to the extension length and the pin position in the outer tube, generally ranging from 13.2 to 40.4 kN. For example, size 4 has a maximum allowable load of approximately 40.4 kN, while size 7 has a maximum of approximately 31.9 kN. Each prop size accommodates a range of loads, which can simplify prop quantity planning.

The TITAN S holds German technical approval Z-8.311-998. Related approvals include Z-8.311-1003 for the TITAN E35 and Z-8.22-874 for the Mega Shore joint. These approvals can reduce the need for separate project-specific verification of the products’ structural capacity.

TITAN E35 Telescopic Prop

Applications for the TITAN E35 Telescopic Prop

The TITAN E35 is designed for projects with repetitive floor-by-floor construction, such as office buildings, where reducing cycle times is a priority.

The TITAN E35 complies with DIN EN 1065 Class E and has an approved load capacity of up to 41.5 kN, exceeding the minimum values specified by the standard.

Its high capacity allows each prop to carry heavier loads, which may reduce the total number of props required. The adjustment thread is protected inside the prop, helping crews tighten, release, and dismantle the system more easily. Using fewer props can also reduce the labor and handling required for transportation, installation, and removal.

TITAN Adjustable Aluminum Leg

Applications for the TITAN Adjustable Aluminum Leg

The TITAN Adjustable Aluminum Leg is designed for projects with high clearances and large open spaces, including bridges, power plants, atriums, and structures with wide column spacing.

Its lightweight aluminum components provide load capacities of up to 128 kN per leg. When combined with the system’s dedicated frames, the components can be assembled into shoring towers up to 24.6 meters high.

The TITAN Adjustable Aluminum Leg complies with DIN EN 16031 and holds multiple technical approvals. These certifications provide documented performance data for use in large-scale and complex temporary works designs.

ISCHEBECK TITAN Support Services

For Contractors and Commercial Projects

Temporary Works Design and Structural Analysis

ISCHEBECK TITAN’s UK technical team works with contractors from the early stages of a project to identify an appropriate formwork or falsework system. Its design services include color-coded detail drawings prepared in AutoCAD, 3D modeling in Autodesk Revit, and structural calculations produced using specialized beam-design and structural-analysis software.

The team can assess unusual structures, high-level heavy slabs, tall walls, and other technically demanding applications. Ongoing technical assistance is also available for active projects when jobsite conditions or construction sequences change.

Nationwide Equipment Sales, Rental, and Delivery

ISCHEBECK TITAN offers equipment for both purchase and rental. According to its official UK materials, the company maintains substantial inventory at a four-acre distribution facility, with most items available for delivery throughout the UK within 48 hours.

Available systems include light- and heavy-duty falsework, heavy propping systems, bridge falsework, slab formwork, climbing systems, long-span beams, and related accessories. Rentals are subject to quotation and the company’s terms and conditions, including a minimum rental period of 14 days. Delivery arrangements, freight charges, equipment quantities, and availability should be confirmed for each project.

On-Site Training and Technical Support

ISCHEBECK TITAN’s support extends beyond equipment supply. The company provides health and safety toolbox talks, on-site product training, and ongoing technical assistance for active jobsites.

Product specialists and sales engineers work with customers to review site conditions and develop practical plans for assembling and dismantling the systems safely. Technical brochures, application information, and assembly instructions are also available through the company’s service and download resources. Contractors can contact the UK sales team or the dedicated design office with product or engineering questions.

For Local Builders and DIY Customers

Rental and Purchase Inquiries from Individual Customers

ISCHEBECK TITAN’s terms and conditions specifically address equipment rented to individual customers, indicating that individuals may submit rental inquiries as well as commercial organizations. However, the official website does not advertise a dedicated DIY package, a single-prop rental service, or a stated minimum order quantity.

The minimum rental period is generally 14 days. Rentals to individuals that fall under the consumer-credit provision described in the terms and conditions are limited to a maximum of three months. Availability, pricing, deposits, technical requirements, and the suitability of a proposed residential project must be confirmed directly with the UK sales team.

Delivery, Collection, and Safe-Use Requirements

Equipment is generally supplied ex works unless delivery is agreed upon. When ISCHEBECK TITAN arranges delivery or collection, transportation charges apply, and the customer is responsible for unloading or loading as specified in the contract. Collection requests generally must be submitted in writing at least 48 hours in advance.

Customers are also responsible for the proper handling, dismantling, storage, maintenance, and cleaning of the equipment. DIY customers should therefore request product-specific guidance before use and confirm whether technical support or training is available for their project. Professional falsework equipment should not be treated as a general-purpose residential prop without first confirming that it is appropriate for the intended application.
