super slim soldier
the definitive primary beam
The Super Slim Soldier is the definitive
formwork primary beam, with its
unrivalled strength-to-weight ratio,
versatility and range of accessories. Robust
and easily assembled into beams of
almost any length, the Super Slim Soldier
can be re-used on site after site, without
modification, for virtually any formwork or
other temporary works.

Table 1 shows the working loads for a range of effective strut lengths
when the shore is subjected to axial compression. The working loads
are established on the following basis:
Horizontal:
• Shore pinned at each end.
• Deflection of the strut due to its own weight.
• Eccentricity due to shore misalignment by L 200.
/
Inclined:
• Shore pinned at each end.
• Deflection of the strut due to its own weight.
• Eccentricity due to shore misalignment by L 200.
2
/
Vertical:
2/ • Shore with Tilt Head at one end and pinned at
the other end.
• Eccentricity due to shore being set 1:200 out of plumb.
• Tilt Head loaded a maximum of 20mm eccentric
with eccentricity positioned around weakest axis (Iyy).

• Eccentricity due to shore being set 1:200 out of plumb.

These capacities have been established by theoretical analysis for the
main body of the shore and by testing of the various connections.

Table 2 shows the maximum working loads for shores with pinned

shore pinned into either a Strut Adaptor or a Universal Tilt Base.
Careful selection of the Universal Tilt Base anchors is required to safely
withstand the combined loads created.
