PROJECT DETAILS

Pinnacle shores up the entire side of a building!

Pinnacle provided the shoring for the entire inside of this old Pizzaria Uno building in Smyrna, DE. If you look carefully at the wide shot you will see that our hi-load shoring frames are actually supporting the entire side of the interior. That’s because crews were not only gutting the whole interior but also remodeling the front or exterior as well! So, our shoring frames (which there were many) had to support the main trusses and entire side of the structure.

Shoring isn’t the most glamorous part of scaffolding or access because it usually occupies some dark, dusty far part of a basement – but every now and then you get to see just what shoring is all about. Support. And that’s where Pinnacle Scaffold can help. Our years of experience shoring are why we were brought in on this project. Crews are remodeling this building at 1225 N DuPont Highway, to become 3 stores instead of one. All indications show that a Panda Express as well as a Leslie’s Pool will be moving in. The third space hasn’t been announced yet but I will keep you posted.

You can see several points in the building that required special attention. Steel beams, shoring frames, screw jacks, u shoring heads, cross-beams, Hi-Load Frames, Non-Load Bearing Ledgers, adjusting screws – were used throughout this entire job.
