Shoring question
Shoring question
(OP)
Hello,
I was asked to design shoring to replace deteriorated concrete column. Never done shoring before. so, came up with the attached sketch.
It is the bottom column in a two storey parking garage. The calculated loads include the dead and live loads, although the parking spots adjacent to the column wont be used during construction, the live load was included.
Please provide any comments you have. Thanks for the help

1- the posts are 24" from the face of the column. can move them to be 4ft.
2- Slab on grade is checked and was OK
3- ( not in my scope) but done something similar where the forms were made to allow pouring 1 ft of concrete head then the extra concrete removed. It worked very well.
4- ( not in my scope, as this is by others), But I think creep and shrinkage are negligible in this 8ft long segment of lightly loaded column. My estimate is less than 3/32" (2mm)

Given how big that capital looks, im surprised that punching, one way shear, or flexure work with these new shoring posts.
