Formwork assembly and stripping
Fig. 62.1 Double-sided formwork
Important!
When assembling and stripping
formwork, strictly observe the
local accident prevention rules.
When using our formwork and
systems always observe federal,
state and local codes and regula-
tions.
Attention
Above a formwork height of
2.00 m both sides of the form-
work must be secured against
falling.
Planning
If you want to benefit fully from
the efficient and economical use
that the formwork offers, we
recommend you first plan and
prepare its use. Start planning by
determining the optimum form-
work quantity to be held in stock
(the quantity is usually based
on the amount of formwork
required for a one day‘s work).
When determining the quantity,
consider the following:
Æ
The formwork weight
Æ
The time required for form-
work assembly and stripping
Æ
Transport of gangs from
one pour to the next consider-
ably reduces assembly and strip-
ping effort and time
Æ
Capacity of the lifting
devices
Æ
A logical cycle plan that
takes into account corner con-
figurations, reinforcements, etc.
Once all these aspects have been
considered, the quantities of
formwork items can be specified.
Ground
The ground on which the
formwork is going to be placed
should be clean, even and capa-
ble of bearing the expected load,
as this will help reduce the time
required for the assembly and
stripping.
Panel transport
When unloading panels or mov-
ing panel stacks, make sure to
use appropriate transport devices
that can bear the load. For
detailed information see pages
M350-66 to M350-67.
The steps required for
assembly
For ergonomic reasons the
outside formwork is usually
assembled and placed first. Start
assembly in a corner or at a
defined position and perform the
following steps:
Step 1 – Place and brace the
outside formwork
Step 2 – Define and mark the
pouring height, install the rein-
forcements and boxouts
Step 3 – Place the inside form-
work and tie the outside and
inside formwork
Refer to the following pages for
a detailed description of these
steps including the installation
of the working platform and
formwork stripping.
