    Restrained shoring system specifications

    I'll try to better define my question for an appropriate answer. Is there a governing code for temporary work like a restrained shoring system for earthwork? Would it be the International Code Council? What does the code say with regard to deflections of walers in such a system?

    Restrained shoring system specifications

    I'm working on a shoring system with a waler and raker and am looking for specifications on how much deflection is allowed in the components. Would l/240 be a good assumption?
