Place & Brace

With many precast elements, and panel elements in particular, there will be a need to provide temporary support in the form of braces or props to hold the element safely in position until the rest of the surrounding structure is complete and locks the element in its final position.

Reid provides a range of bracing anchor solutions:

  • RapidBrace (pre-installed)
  • BraceSet & PA1 (post-installed)

In September 2009 Reid's new RapidBraceTM product was recognised with a High Commendation by the Concrete Institute of Australia in their biennial Awards for Excellence in Concrete.
