D3 Self-Climbing Procedure
D3.5 Last stroke
During the last stroke of a climbing
procedure, the vertical load is transferred
to another climbing shoe.
Therefore, the climbing shoe which
should serve as the vertical bearing must
be activated:
– Activate the climbing shoes which are
intended to be used as the vertical
bearing, see D3.7.
– Interrupt the last stroke after load
change and deactivate the pawls of
the other climbing shoes, see D3.8.
– Put down climbing unit on the climbing
pawls (5.1) of the activated shoes.
(Fig. 51)
– After the last stroke, completely retract
all cylinders.
After every climbing procedure, carry out
a reference run in order to correct any
synchronisation deviation, see D5.4.
Are all climbing rails (9) aligned with the
respective climbing shoes (5)?
Are all climbing pawls (5.1) completely
engaged under the climbing bolts (9.1)?
Are all climbing shoes activated which
serve as vertical bearings?
