Allowable axial compressive loads are given for loads eccentric at both ends 10mm (3/8”), 25mm(1”), 38mm (11/2”), and 50mm (2”), on the following 4 graphs.
Appropriate eccentricities for various arrangements in conjunction with Megashor are givenbelow.

Any of the above to foundation without grout 2”
Where different load eccentricities are present at either end use the maximum eccentricity.
Where Megashor sections are bolted directly to a header beam without rockingheads a frame analysis shall be carried out and the Megashor section checked in combinedcompression and bending.
Combined Bending Moment and Compressive Loads
Combined cases can be checked using the equation M + P ≤ 1 Mmax Pmax
Where M is the applied bending moment, Mmax is the maximum allowable bending moment.P is the applied axial compressive load and Pmax is the maximum allowable axial load at aparticular effective length.

Used to brace between the soldier ledgers. The tensile and shear capacity of the Superslimto Megashor connection must be checked, in accordance with 1.5.8. and 1.5.9. as well asthe maximum brace load into the soldier porthole (14.4 kips).
Note: When using Rapid Bar Tie bracing with high lateral loads the horizontal deflection,tensile, shear & moment performance of the structure must be checked.
1.3.1. Rapid Bar Tie Braces
When Megashor legs are lightly loaded, scaffold tube bracing can be used by connecting tonode points using half couplers. Braces are used in pairs and the allowable load in the braceis dependant upon the slip value of the coupler and the length of the tube. The capacity ofbraces should be checked in accordance with local codes.

Connect incrossed pairs to the 21mm (13/16”) Ø holes in Megashor shafts via M20 x 40 gr. 8.8 set pins andnuts (BNU20005 + BNU20001) or in single crossed pairs to the small holes in Superslim Soldierledgers via M20 x 90 bolt and nut (BNX20030 & BNU20001).Hole centers may be determined from 1.3.6, 1.3.7 and 1.3.8.Each brace supplied on rent attracts an alteration charge – Flat Brace 60 x 8 Alteration (MSU10001).
1.3.4. Adjustable Vernier Braces
Used on the top and/or bottom of a tower where the presence of screw jacks necessitates a bracewith adjustable length. Braces operate on the Vernier principle, holes at 24mm (15/16”) and 26mm(1”) centers interact to give a brace adjustable in steps of 2mm (1/16”) . Braces are set to the correctlength prior to erection and may be tightened when the structure is complete using a podger bar.
Short Inner Galvanized (MSX10033)
Short Outer Galvanized (MSX10034)
Long Inner Galvanized (MSX10005)
Long Outer Galvanized (MSX10006)
The braces are fixed to length using 2 No.M12 x 40 Grade 8.8 set pins and nuts (BNU12009+BNU12001).
The following combinations of components cover a brace range from1800 to 5600mm (5’-107/8” to 18’-41/2):1. Short Outer and Short Inner 1800 to 2902mm (5’-107/8” to 9’-61/4 “)2. Long Outer and Short Inner 2682 to 3800mm (8’-99/16” to 12’-55/8”)3. Long Outer and Long Inner 3600 to 5600mm (11’-93/4” to 18’-41/2”)

1.3.6. Bar Tie Cross BracesUse to brace between Megashor & Superslim structures. Can be used with Bar Tie Claw toconnect bar tie bracing to Megashor Brace Plates (MSU1002), Plan Brace Cleats, MegatrussNodes, Megatruss End Bearers, and Half Portal Frames.The tensile and shear capacity of the Superslim to Megashor connection must be checked inaccordance with 1.5.8 and 1.5.9.
Note: When using bar tie bracing with high lateral loads, the horizontal deflection of the struc-ture must be checked along with the loads carried by all structural members and connections.SWL = 11.1 kips SWL = 15.2 kips SWL = 26.3 kips

* Ensure threads are well greased.+ Dismantle jack entirely before use. Clean all four thread surfaces and coat liberally with Molyslip OGL grease prior to reassembly. Details available from RMD Kwikform.
B. LoadingBy application of a controlled torque via the Megashor Jack Spanner(MSX10022), known loads up to 67 kips can be applied. Torque is deter-mined from the graph below or the equation:
Tp = 29.6W where Tp is the Torque applied to the jack handle (lb*ft)W is the load in the jack (kips)

2.6.0. Megatruss – Notes on DesignThe joints between Megatruss elements are stiff and the truss acts structurally as if it were fullywelded. Frame analysis shall be carried out and members and joints checked for Bending Mo-ments, Axial, Shear, Bearing and Local Buckling Stresses as well as any coincident combinationof the above. Where possible loads should be applied at node points to reduce local bending inthe truss chords. Bearing on truss chords should be eliminated where possible by carrying loadsdirectly into Megatruss nodes and chord props/ties. Refer to RMD Kwikform Technical Office fordetails.

Allowable loads and moments are approximate. Carry out frame analysis to check capacity of allindividual members and joints.
Experience has shown that at least 20% of the structural capacity of the truss members is usedup by local rather than global bending effects. This will be much increased if bearing loads arepresent on truss chords or if loads are not supported at node points.

3.0. Assembly GuidanceFor detailed erection guidance refer to the RMD Kwikform Equipment Guidance Notes for yourspecific application or the scheme specific drawing provided by the RMD KwikformTechnical Office.
3.1. Megashor
1. Ensure Megashor shafts bolted end to end are orientated so the webs of all sections areparallel.
2. Megashor screw jacks may be unloaded manually by striking the spindle lugs. For releaseof loads over 110 kips Jacks should be fully dismantled before use. Coat all four-threadsurfaces with Molyslip OGL lubricant (or equivalent) and reassemble.
3. Crossed tension braces bolted to Megashor shafts should be used in pairs in both direc-tions. One of each pair attached to each side of the Megashor section.
4. Ensure Megashor rocking heads are attached such that the tapped holes are bolted to theMegashor section.
5. If, subsequent to assembly, gaps are present between end plates, fill with low viscositycementitous grout.
6. The customer is to ensure that the loads applied to the end plates of Megashor shafts oraccessories by hydraulic jacks or otherwise are suitably spread and placed to avoid localover-stress of the section.
7. Some components weigh over 50 lb. Plan lifts in accordance with best practice and locallyapplicable regulations.
3.2. Megatruss
1. Notes for assembly of Megashor equally apply to Megatruss.2. Ensure all fasteners at a joint are located hand tight prior to fully tightening any at that joint.3. Position all elements and fasteners to each section of the truss hand tight prior to fully tight-
ening.4. Torque all fasteners that join Megashor legs end to end, end to Megatruss Nodes or Mega-
truss End Bearers to 225 lb*ft.5. Support trusses by the bottom chord batten plates during assembly. Provide adequate
temporary lateral restraints. Avoid bearing loads to the bottom chord batten plates in excessof 33 kips.
6. Ensure trusses are braced as shown to restrain compression chords and resist lateral loads7. Ensure trusses are lifted in a safe manner, refer to RMD Kwikform Technical Office. Lift
girder from the node points at or near third points on span. Maximum length of single girderfor lifting is 42 ft. Preferably, and in any case for longer spans, girders should be braced to-gether and lifted in pairs.
