Transmission Tower Foundations and Connection Stations

As the “foundations” of the entire power transmission network, tower bases and connection stations are often built in mountainous terrain or on river levees—where uneven ground and level differences create serious construction challenges.





Beams Supported in One Go

Height variations between main beams and secondary beams are common. With adjustable U-head jacks, Sucoot’s Ring Lock Scaffolding System ensures both can be firmly supported at the same time, allowing concrete casting to be completed in a single pour—without rework.


Flexible Adjustment on Uneven Terrain

Slopes and uneven surfaces often disrupt scaffold alignment and stability. Sucoot’s adjustable base jacks compensate for height differences, keeping the entire foundation level and ensuring a stable base for upper supports.

Power Plants – The Core STG Hall

Steam turbine generator (STG) halls are the heart of thermal power plants, housing machinery that weighs hundreds of tons. These halls demand exceptionally thick slabs and massive columns—pushing shoring and formwork systems to their limits.


Extreme Slab Casting Challenges

To support heavy turbines, STG hall slabs can reach 3.0–3.5m thick. At Taichung Power Plant, for example, the STG floor slab was 3.5m thick, with immense concrete pressure and reinforcement loads during casting.


Massive Column Formwork Systems

STG columns—often 2.5–3.5m square—must withstand thick slab loads and wide spans. Sucoot’s professional design team deploys Top Beams, Base Beams, and Tie Rods in a systematic configuration, accurately calculating lateral pressures. This ensures safe, stable column formwork that achieves one-time casting without risk of collapse—keeping projects on schedule.

Flexible & Stable Maintenance Platforms

Power plants require regular inspections and high-altitude maintenance. Sucoot’s Ring Lock Scaffolding System provides safe working platforms for pipelines, cables, and equipment installations.

  • Mobile Access: Platforms can be fitted with rolling units, allowing workers to move scaffolds across work zones without full disassembly.
  • Safe at Height: For turbines, generators, and large equipment, the system’s modular flexibility and structural strength deliver tall, stable platforms for secure maintenance.

Trusted by Engineers, Proven by Certification

Sucoot’s shoring towers are third-party tested. A standard tower can safely support at least 72 tons, delivering powerful reliability for massive concrete structures.

Beyond hardware, Sucoot provides professional engineering services—performing detailed calculations based on height variations, reinforcement, and concrete loads. The result: shoring and formwork solutions that ensure one-time casting, eliminate collapse risks, and deliver trust you can build on.
