Support - Jack

[Lawrence]

What is the name of a metal rod with a jack function that you can use to support a beam when you are about to replace the bottom beam, or more importantly where can you buy such at a reasonable price? :S

 

[daugaard]

do you mean STÄMP maybe?

Column jack ? http://www.duabhuset.se/#showProduct.php?id=513

 

[Lawrence]

Ok thanks, where can you find those?

 

[Lawrence]

oh how quick you were, real mind readers, thank you

 

[Lawrence]

no, it should be a long metal rod with something that spins in the middle with threads, kind of
that makes the rod longer and clamps up beam or whatever

 

[Mäster]

Then it's probably stämp as daugaard suggested.

 

[daugaard]

can be rented at places like cramo or similar. don't know about buying.

If it's a very large job you're going to do, it might be time-efficient to buy real stämp, otherwise it works just as well with a few paired 45x95 studs. Cut a little a few millimeters longer than the desired measurement, lift with the garage jack, place your studs, lower down.

Thank you Mathias, the simple is of course the best!
