6.2. HEAVY-DUTY ALUMINIUM PROPS and accessories

HEAVY-DUTY ALUMINIUM PROPS AND ACCESSORIES GENERAL INFORMATION Your benefits at a glance: G For carrying heavy loads at great room heights For use as single props and as shoring towers with horizontal aluminium frames 3 different prop sizes and intermediate pieces For heights from 0.80 m up to more than 20 m 2 sizes of strong stringer beams to carry greater prop intervals and loads With a type-tested structural analysis and general building authority approval Sensible accessories that can be combined with standard scaffolding materials Excellent handling thanks to low dead weight Safe, trouble-free...

HEAVY-DUTY ALUMINIUM PROPS AND ACCESSORIES GENERAL INFORMATION Tables of bearing load see pages 16 ff. Advantages for the user: The best surprise for first users is the light weight of all single parts which enable almost playful working. Even the biggest single prop up to 5.50 m has a weight of only 29 kgs. Although these props do have a bearing load which is three times higher, especially at floor heights of more than 4 m, compared to steel props with the same extension length. So it is possible to reduce the number of necessary props to approx. a third. This saves time and money when installing...

HEAVY-DUTY ALUMINIUM PROPS AND ACCESSORIES SINGLE PROPS Your benefits at a glance: G 3 different sizes of props and 4 extension elements for heights of 0.81 to 11.00 m Usable as single part or assembled Approx. 3 times more bearing loads compared to steel props Use also possible turned at 180° Stable discharge protection from security hook Quick adjustment of the swivelling nut by releasing the security hook Spindle with double trapezoidal thread, that means reducing of exertion by 50% 2 lengths of spindles, adjustment range 1.20 m and 0.40 m External tube: The octagonal special hollow section...

COMBINATION OF SINGLE PROPS Survey: Combination of single props and possible supporting heigths Type 3-AL + second spindle extension element L = 1.25 m + spindle short extension element L = 1.0 m + spindle short Type 4-AL + second spindle one pair of connecting clamps: 100 % bending resistance of the connected props at the top plates with stiffening rib extension element L = 0.5 m + spindle short Protection against dropping out of the additional spindle with 2 holders Type 5-AL + second spindle HEAVY-DUTY ALUMINIUM PROPS AND ACCESSORIES

HEAVY-DUTY ALUMINIUM PROPS AND ACCESSORIES SHORE TOWERS Your benefits at a glance: G 3 different sizes of props and 4 extension elements for heights of 1.70 m to more than 20 m Bearing loads from 113.0 kN to 9.5 kN 7 different H-frames for square and rectangular tower plan Towers to install with a various number of props Shore tower stiffened movable in one piece Quick and easy mounting laying on the ground without the help of a crane No loose parts to fix the H-frames Horizontal frame With the horizontal frames the aluminium props will be connected to stable shore towers. In this case the bearing...

HEAVY-DUTY ALUMINIUM PROPS AND ACCESSORIES SHORE TOWERS The horizontal tubes of the H-frames have a diameter of 48 mm, thus the connecting of standard scaffolding tube couplers for the connection of diagonal bracings is possible. For further works at the lower side of the slab formwork planking can be placed onto the frames to produce a walking area. Also plastic planking is available in the system adjusted to the length of the usual H-frames. This planking is lighter than wood, corosion proof and will be fixed stable with the locking claws . Transferable frictional force per clamping bolt =...

HEAVY-DUTY ALUMINIUM PROPS AND ACCESSORIES SHORE TOWERS Easy and quick mounting of shore towers: All parts can be carried easily at ground level and can be mounted in laying position on the ground, a crane is not necessary during the whole mounting process. Only after complete mounting of the tower elements, the screwed construction can be erected with the crane and moved to the place of operation. This will save the need of crane capacity enormously. Because it is not necessary to carry parts upwards, mounting times of approx. 0.22 hours per mounting meter can be reached for 4 leg tower. The...

HEAVY-DUTY ALUMINIUM PROPS AND ACCESSORIES SHORE TOWERS – ACCESSORIES Mechanical lifting carriage The secure connections between the props and the frames guarantee an enormous natural stability for the whole mounted construction. Big mounted tower elements can be transported by crane without problem and moved easily inside the building. For the moving with muscle power without crane the mechanical lifting carriage will be pushed underneath the lower tube of the H-frame, afterwards the spindles will be turned free of load and the unit can be moved to the next concreting step. 2 slab formwork systems...
