Blocks

Load Stabilization and Distribution 

Spacer beams ensure an even distribution of the loads transmitted by the machine’s stabilizers. By increasing the contact area, they help limit the pressure exerted on the ground and reduce the risk of sinking or deformation. 

This load-distribution function directly contributes to the stability of the equipment during lifting operations or work under load. 

Adaptability to Uneven Terrain 

Support beams are used on surfaces with varying conditions: soft ground, sloped areas, uneven terrain, or unstable surfaces. Their modular design allows the support height to be adjusted according to the needs of the job site. 

This adaptability makes them an ideal solution for environments where ground bearing capacity varies significantly. 

Ensuring Safe Lifting Operations 

Thanks to their non-slip surfaces, these blocks help reduce the risk of machine feet slipping, even in wet or poor conditions. They thus contribute to the overall safety of lifting and handling operations.

Modularity and possible combinations 

The beams can be used individually or combined with one another to create suitable shoring configurations. Stacking them in multiple layers increases the load-bearing surface area or allows for a specific height to be achieved. 

They can also be used in conjunction with other stabilization equipment, such as rolling plates, depending on site conditions and the loads to be supported. 

A versatile solution for construction professionals

These support beams are designed for use in the building and construction, public works, lifting, and industrial maintenance sectors. They meet the requirements for stabilizing machinery while helping to protect floors and ensure safety during operations. 

FAQ – Support Beams 

What are support beams used for? 

Support beams are used to stabilize lifting and handling equipment while ensuring proper load distribution on the ground. They also help protect surfaces and ensure safe operations. 

What are the main advantages of shims? 

They serve several purposes: load distribution, stabilizing equipment, adapting to sloped or uneven terrain, and reducing the risk of slipping thanks to their non-slip surfaces. 

On what types of surfaces can shims be used? 

They can be used on a variety of surfaces such as soil, loose surfaces, sloped areas, or slightly unstable ground, both indoors and outdoors. 

Are the support blocks slip-resistant? 

Yes, each surface is treated to provide better traction, even in wet conditions or rain, to minimize the risk of the stabilizers slipping. 

Can the height be adjusted using the support beams? 

Yes, stacking them allows you to adjust the support height to compensate for level differences or adapt to sloped terrain. 

Can the support beams be combined with other equipment? 

They can be used in conjunction with distribution plates or other shims to increase the support surface area and adapt the solution to heavy loads. 

Are the beams suitable for heavy machinery?

Yes, they are designed to withstand the loads transmitted by lifting equipment, with a capacity that depends on their configuration and intended use.
