Dokadek heads
|
|
WARNING ➤ The Dokadek heads must always be fixed to the floor prop with the correct pin (exception: edge heads at a panel joint). ➤ The edge head may only be fitted to the outside one-third point of the panel. |

|
|
NOTICE ▪ When placing the panels onto the heads, make sure that the panels are correctly fixed in the heads. ▪ Edge heads to which infill beams are mounted (in the infill zone) must be secured with Spring locked connecting pins 16mm. ▪ If a Dokadek panel 1.22x2.44m is to be connected, the cross head is fitted in the middle of the broadside of the panel. ▪ If a Dokadek panel 0.81x2.44m is to be connected, the cross head is fitted at the one-third point of the broadside of the panel. |

Securing the formwork against tip-over
|
|
WARNING ➤ Before anybody steps onto the surface of the formwork, its stability must be ensured by e.g. wall clamps or lashing straps. ➤ Transfer of concreting loads must be ensured by other measures (e.g. by transferring these loads into the structure or using tie-backs). ➤ All cantilevered panels must be secured against overturning. |
|
|
For more information on tie-backs with lashing straps, see the section headed 'Floor formwork around edges' in the 'Panel floor formwork Dokadek 30' User Information booklet and the ‘Lashing strap 5.00m’ User Information booklet. |
|
|
NOTICE ▪ Secure every floor prop in the 1st row of props with a Removable folding tripod. - Shoring height < 3.00 m: Removable folding tripod - Shoring height ≥ 3.00 m: Removable folding tripod 1.20m ▪ While the formwork is being set up, make a braced unit on the 1st pair of panels (with removable folding tripods), every max. 7.50 m and on the last pair of panels (without removable folding tripods) – see 'Practical examples 1 & 2'. - Alternatively, tie-backs can also be attached (see Practical example 3). ▪ Important to remember when mounting the floor prop (incl. cross head): in the typical zone, secure – with tripods – the props that have only 1 panel resting on them. ▪ Tie back the typical zones at the corners. ▪ Tie back cantilevering panels: - by the Scaffold tube 0.50m on every panel joint (see Practical example 5) - additionally, on the outside panels, by the middle bulkhead plate (see Practical example 6) |

FreeFalcon
|
|
WARNING Risk of falling at open edges! ➤ Personnel must be trained to use personal fall-arrest systems (e.g. safety harness) until all fall protection has been installed. ➤ Suitable anchorage points must be defined by an approved person appointed by the contractor. |
|
|
A fall arrester such as the FreeFalcon provides a mobile anchorage point for the safety harness. 
|
|
|
User instruction prior to use of the FreeFalcon is mandatory. |

Guardrail systems on the formwork
|
|
For more information on permitted influence width of the handrail-post shoe, see the section headed 'Floor formwork around edges' in the 'Panel floor formwork Dokadek 30' User Information booklet. |
Note:
The position of the Handrail-post shoe short is different from that in the standard installation configuration as described in the 'Floor formwork around edges' section of the 'Panel floor formwork Dokadek 30' User Information booklet.

Fall-arrest systems on the structure
Note:
When tilting up cantilevering panels, make sure that these do not collide with the guardrail system on the structure. Different minimum room heights are required, depending on the attachment method used.
Possible ranges of use with Edge protection system XP
|

Note:
Always comply with the country-specific safety regulations! For lower room heights, the guardrail system can be temporarily removed and a personal fall-arrest system (PFAS) must be used instead (e.g. safety harness).
