Operating the climbing formwork
The modular design of the Dam formwork system means that many different combinations are possible.
Depending on the project, the actual design may thus differ very greatly from the basic type described here.
➤ In these cases, you should discuss the assembly procedure with your Doka technician.
➤ Follow the shop drawing / assembly plan.

NOTICE ▪ A hard, flat, firm surface is needed! ▪ Prepare a sufficiently large assembly area. ▪ Tightening torque of the couplers for the bracing tubes: 50 Nm |
.
Note:
In order to explain the entire climbing workflow as simply as possible, the repetitive actions involved are described in detail in separate sections of this booklet.
The sections in question are:
▪ Preparing the positioning points and suspension points (see the section headed 'Anchoring on the structure').
▪ Closing the formwork (see the section headed 'Closing the formwork').
▪ Stripping (see the section headed 'Opening the formwork').
▪ In addition, the following sections must also be observed:
- Plumbing & aligning the formwork
- Repositioning by crane
