MGC-F
Guided Climbing
MGC is the abbreviation for MEVA Guided Climbing. Guided climbing means
that after each pour cycle the system climbs up the building structure by
one level with the help of guiding profiles and climbing shoes while the
system is lifted by a crane.
The MGC system offers a significant advantage: the entire system including
guiding profiles, ladder extensions, secondary platforms etc. is assembled
from ground level below – maintaining simple, safe and time-saving
conditions.
Another advantage is that the vertical formwork and the work platform are
a single unit. Thanks to the guiding profiles, remains securely attached to
the building structure during building and lifting. Thus, wind velocities do
not affect the building process or endanger worker safety. This is why the
MGC system is ideally suited for high-rise building in areas with high wind
speeds and generally for high buildings since the wind velocity increases
with height. Consult MEVA engineering for the formwork height and MGC
spacing for your project.
The MGC-F bracket was designed specifically for the North American market,
allowing pre-assembly of the platforms to be completed off site and then
transported to the project, where the platforms can be flown off of the
truck and unfolded on the wall.
