A support apparatus having a base to support a support member which, in turn, supports a structure (e.g., a building joist, overhead structure, combinations thereof). The support apparatus may be used to provide reinforcement between a floor (e.g., ground, substrate, or the like) and the structure. The base of the support apparatus is in the form of a generally planar circular base, but may have any shape. The base may include one or more platforms, recesses, or ribs in order to provide structural support to the base and/or locations for one or more fastener apertures. The one or more fastener apertures are configured to receive one or more fasteners for operatively coupling the base to the floor in order to resist movement of the base during installation and/or use of the support apparatus.

A system for laterally supporting a vertical shoring post is provided. The system includes a head and a jaw assembly, the jaw assembly movably mounted to the head, the head configured for selective engagement with a shoring post, and the jaw assembly configured for engagement with a beam that provides lateral support to the shoring post. The head comprises first and second arms that extend in the same general direction and when engaging the shoring post the first and second arms are disposed upon opposite sides of the shoring post. The jaw assembly includes a fixed jaw and a movable jaw, the moving member pivotably connected to the fixed jaw, wherein the fixed jaw and movable jaws are configured to receive an end of the beam therebetween.

Various implementations described herein are directed to a modular ledger of an integrated construction system. In one implementation, the modular ledger includes a rail, having a first end and a second end. Each end of the rail is configured to receive a coupling component. The rail has a plurality of holes configured to couple to bracing components of the integrated construction system.

A formwork system includes (a) a wallform panel for forming a wall portion; and (b) at least one brace assembly including a pair of vertically spaced apart props pivotably connected to the wallform panel for pivoting of the brace assembly relative to the wallform panel between a storage position, in which the brace assembly lies adjacent the wallform panel, and a deployed position, in which the brace assembly projects from the wallform panel for anchoring the props to a ground surface through a common base plate connected to each prop.

A telescopic edge protection post arrangeable between a floor and a ceiling, comprising outer and inner tubes, each comprising a bottom end and a top end, the inner tube extending into the outer tube and being movable with respect thereto between an extended position and a collapsed position. The post further comprises a locking mechanism to lock the inner tube with respect to the outer tube in the extended position, and a tensioning unit arranged at the top end of the inner tube. The tensioning unit comprises a tensioning element having a primary and secondary tensioning portions, wherein tensioning of the secondary tensioning portion requires a lower force than the primary tensioning portion, allowing tensioning of the secondary tensioning portion by extending the telescopic edge protection post by hand into engagement with the floor and the ceiling. Further, the primary and secondary tensioning portions each comprise a compression spring.

A locking mechanism for locking an inner tube with an outer tube of an adjustable telescopic push-pull prop assembly is disclosed. The locking mechanism includes a slotted prop nut having a slot and adapted to move in either direction when rotated on the outer tube having threads, a guiding ring adapted to be accommodated in the slot of the slotted prop nut, and a captive grooved pin assembly adapted to be accommodated in the guiding ring for locking and unlocking the inner tube and the outer tube such that the slotted prop nut encases the guiding ring and the captive grooved pin assembly. The positioning of the captive grooved pin assembly is such that it does not hinder the rotation of the slotted prop nut.

A horizontal formwork is disclosed that includes a support base and a plurality of formwork panels that are supported thereon. The support base includes a plurality of basic grids that each have four heads arranged at the vertices of the basic grid. Two main beams are arranged parallel to one another, and two edge beams arranged parallel to one another and perpendicular to the main beams. Each basic grid also includes central beams which are arranged parallel to the edge beams and supported on the main beams. The main beams include housings adapted for receiving an end of a respective central beam. At least one of the basic grids includes at least one main beam having support sections for additional beams for supporting the formwork panels.
