Plumbing accessories brace the formwork against wind loads and make it easier to plumb and align.

Product features:

▪ can be extended in 8 cm increments

▪ Fine adjustment by screw-thread

▪ All parts are captive, including the telescopic tube which has a safety stop to prevent dropout


 

WARNING

Risk of the formwork tipping over!

➤ Formwork panels must be held stable in every phase of construction work!

➤ Observe all applicable safety regulations!

➤ If high wind speeds are likely, and when work finishes for the day or before prolonged work-breaks, always take extra precautions to fix the formwork in place.
Suitable precautions:
- set up the opposing formwork
- place the formwork against a wall
- anchor the formwork to the ground

Max. anchoring load:
Fexist = 9.0 kN (actual load)
Fd = 13.5 kN (design value incl. safety factors)

The values apply where the wind pressure we = 0.65 kN/m2. This results in an impact pressure qp = 0.5 kN/m2 (102 km/h) where cp, net = 1.3. The greater wind loads encountered at exposed formwork-ends must be restrained by additional plumbing accessories (e.g. struts or pipe-braces). In cases where higher wind pressure is encountered, the number of struts must be determined by statical calculation!

Note:

Every gang-form must be supported by at least 2 plumbing accessories.
