🔍 Key Concepts

• Shoring components used in damage control (wedge, strongback, shole) and how each one supports or distributes load • The difference between tightening a shore and spreading out the pressure at the contact point • Where the end (heel) of a shore rests and what is placed under it when the surface is weak or uneven

💭 Think About

• For each choice, ask yourself: Is this mainly used to tighten/adjust the shore, to span across a damaged area, or to spread the load at the shore’s contact point? • Visualize a shore standing on a soft or uneven deck: which piece would you slide under the very end of the shore to keep it from punching through or digging in? • Which item is described in manuals as a short, flat piece rather than a long member or a wedge-shaped piece?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which term is defined as a short, flat block placed under the heel or end of a shore to distribute pressure over a larger area. • Confirm that a wedge is usually associated with tightening or adjusting the shore length, not primarily with distributing pressure on a soft surface. • Eliminate any option that is typically a long member (used to span or back up a damaged area) rather than a small block under the shore end.
