There are two types of connections between
standard truss structures and support structures.
4.4.1.
Support on shoring towers or props
The support of the structure on the shoring can as
well be secured in two different ways:
Directly on the shoring: The structure rests
directly on top of one shoring leg.
The joint can be pinned or simply resting on the
shoring and being fastened subsequently with
bolts.
(1) The first case requires male-female joints as
the ones described before. Their implementation
is easier for structures of small height and or for
such being assembled on the ground.
This type is frequently used for connections with
the MK Prop system.
(2) For the second case, head joints are used as
end elements as well for the structure as for the
shoring or towers.
These joints allow of the pre-assembly of towers.
Only subsequently, the structure is supported on
and fastened to them.
This joint type suits best the requirements of
heavy and large structures.

Both cases require high assembly accuracy as
well as the same number of structures and lines
of supports.
With load distributing beam: This is the classical
support for gantry solutions. Its main advantage
lies in the better load and force distribution on
the supports.
This connection type does not require an equal
number of lines of supports and structures with
the correspondent savings which this supposes.
