Low height steel capsule jacks
The Structural Engineer's Solution for Temporary & Permanent Load Transfer

Home


Advantages & Selection chart

Advantages

The benefits to the engineer stem from the versatilty of Flat Jacks and the long experience of Fagioli PSC in the development of Flat Jack techniques:

  • Known forces
  • Precise control
  • Low height for limited access situations
  • Low bearing stresses
  • Out of parallel tolerance between jacking surfaces
  • Temporary, removable jacks
  • Permanent, sacrificial jacks
