The Importance of Wooden Block Cribbing
While mechanical jacks provide primary lifting force, seasoned hardwood cribbing towers serve as the ultimate fail-safe backup during structural elevation.
Key Properties of Sal Wood Cribbing
- High Compression Strength: Sal wood handles immense perpendicular grain loads without cracking or compressing.
- Continuous Stack Follow-Up: As jacks raise the structure by 2 inches, cribbing blocks are immediately stacked underneath to eliminate drop risks.
- Load Distribution: Interlocking timber grids distribute point loads evenly over larger ground surface areas.
