Acrow Props Before And Now

http://readtriviaonline.blogspot.com/
The Acrow props available for sale these days have made construction a whole lot easier not only for laborers but also for construction businesses. 

Invented by William de Vigier in 1935 and named after his solicitor Mr. A. Crowe, these Acrow props became popular and useful among builders because of the convenience it offers in providing temporary support for almost all kinds of construction projects. Right now, they are being used for shoring, scaffolding, and even for supporting concrete formwork.

Aside from ease of use, these tubular steel props are durable so they can be used again and again. They are also ready to use and can be adjusted accordingly. Furthermore, recent Acrow props are now designed for easier storage.

So what do people use as temporary support when there were no Acrow props yet?

Before the invention and welcoming of Acrow props, timber framing has been used. Timber props are used for various structures in the past because timbers were easier to obtain and cheaper. However, unlike the adjustable steel props we know today, timber props are difficult to create. To produce timber props, people used axes, draw knives, adzes, and drill bits operated by hand. You just can't imagine how laborious this work was!
