When should you not install the K type shore?

The situation when you should not install the K type shore is when it is positioned at no more than a 90-degree angle. The K type shore is specifically designed to transfer loads effectively and maintain stability. When installed at a 90-degree angle or lower, it may not provide the proper structural integrity needed to support the load correctly, which can lead to failure under stress or movement.

For optimal safety and performance, the K type shore should ideally be installed at an angle that allows it to handle the load's weight and direction effectively, often this means utilizing angles that promote better load distribution rather than allowing the shore to stand directly upright. This ensures that the weight is adequately supported and reduces the risk of the shore collapsing.

By adhering to the guidelines of installation angles, you reduce the likelihood of compromising the integrity of the shore and maintain a safer environment for any ongoing operations or repairs.
