A U-head can include various elements. In some example, the U-head can include a bearing surface with a flat, central region and with one or more sloped faces. In examples, the flat, central region can support beams in at a first orientation, and the sloped face(s) can support the beams at a second orientation that is different from the first orientation. In addition, in some examples, the U-head can be used together with a wedge adapter, such that the U-head can be positioned at the lower end of a shoring post and can, in combination with the adapter, support the shoring post at an angle atop a box stringer (or other rectangular beam(s) or support structures).
