The versatility of the system permits using different
protection screens depending on the project
requirements: boards, nets, etc.
Following an example of a Protection Screen and its
elements:
Waler MK - Timber Beam Joint Detail:
In this case the SUPPORT is made by “Walers MK-120”
and “Timber Beams VM20”. The SCREEN is made by
board.
The ”Timber Beams” can also be fixed directly to the
“Mast” (element that we will see later)
Following the description of the main elements oaf a
protection screen:
WALER MK- 120
This is together with the MAST, the main element of the
HWS structures.
The 2 main uses of the walers are:
“Vertical Waler”: support for “Beams VM20” of
the “SCREEN”.
Horizontal support for “Beams VM20” of the
“PLATFORMS”.
Its main feature is the double row of holes that allow
the connection of the different parts that make up the
HWS structure in function of the requirements of each
jobsite.
They are made up of “Profiles MK-120” spaced 52 mm
and “Spacer tubes”. Spacer tubes and bolts are included
