1. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
A light, quick and exible system, comprised by metallic towers, metallic (steel/aluminum) struts, metallic
(steel/aluminum) beams and accessories.
It is ideal for the propping of slabs and beams of building works (residential, commercial or industrial),
because it enables a high productivity index, due to the handling facility, the lightness of its components
and the system exibility, meeting all geometries.

Propping of raft slabs
The TS Mills System has a line of equipment and accessories allowing using the same conventional
propping in at slabs, to comprise the repropping, providing more agility to the works, allowing the
entire horizontal and vertical propping to be assembled in the next oor.

2. TS MILL SYSTEM ELEMENTS
2.1. TS METALLIC TOWERS
The TS metallic towers system is a composition of metallic structures formed by the tting of the
braced tubular frames by “X” diagonal elements. The assembly formed by two frames and two diagonal
elements (DX) is called module.
Its multiple models, measures and accessories offer assembly alternatives that meet several types of
works, mainly where a support structure is required as a way of accessing a certain height.

Since it is a practical, safe and easily assembled system, it does not require specialized labor. Therefore,
your system is part of the day to day of countless workers and foremen, such as load towers in the
propping of beams and slabs.

2.1.1. TUBULAR FRAMES
This line of scaffolds is comprised of frames that differ from each other in width and in height. It is
compact and easily assembled.
Main element of the TS tower, responsible for transmitting the actuating loads to the support. It sets the
width (in the plant) of the tower: TS 3 = 1.50 m or TS 4 = 1.00 m.
