Firefighter Maekin Healy from the Santa Clara (CA) Fire Department submitted these amazing shoring props!
These props serve as a tabletop visual, representing the most common shores built. They are built roughly to 1/4 scale and include straight, T, L, and End shores.
These props have been useful reminders for our department and neighboring jurisdictions, with recent changes to the trench curriculum and the infrequency of trench drills. We typically use these at the beginning of our drills to knock the rust off and review our trench numbers, regulations, spacing, etc.
We think these are a great addition to any Special Operations training division, Great job SCFD!
