Pilosio builds up its formwork offering with the flying table ST80

Pilosio’s new flying table ST80 is ideal for high construction work where pouring cycles repeat from one level to another. Flying forms are constituted by large sections of formwork, featuring supporting trusses, joists and aluminum posts. This system is used to cast slab areas with tables that can be designed in order to reach up to lengths of 30m and widths of 6m. The system enhances also side flaps in order to handle spaces between columns and slab edges.

Flying table ST80: ideal for high construction work
7163 Pilosio’s new flying table ST80 is ideal for high construction work where pouring cycles repeat from one level to another. Flying forms are constituted by large sections of formwork, featuring supporting trusses, joists and aluminum posts. This system is used to cast slab areas with tables that can be designed in order to reach up to lengths of 30m and widths of 6m. The system enhances also side flaps in order to handle spaces between columns and slab edges.

The company’s new climbing bracket 240 allows a wide range of flexibility according to building geometries. A suspension shoe allows easy connection of the bracket to a concrete wall and the bracket it tiltable. It is designed to erect formwork with heights up to 5.5m. The carriage can slide back of 75cm to ensure enough space to install concrete rebars and clean formwork surface.

Typical applications of this bracket are construction sites that require working platforms to support double-sided panel formwork. The formwork is firmly connected to the supporting bracket and the whole assembly can be lifted together as a unit with cranes. The system consists of the climbing bracket itself, the wall strut, the lower bridge and guard rails. This supporting bracket is fully compatible with all vertical formwork systems supplied by Pilosio, both steel framed formwork panels and MAXIMIX system.

Accompanying all this is Pilosio’s latest aluminum prop, the Slabprop 2.0. Improvements, when compared to the old version, include a greater range of extraction, from 145cm-625cm. It has greater capacity with values up to 76kN - certified according to EN 16031. Also, connection to truss frames is permitted all along the prop, in order to assemble load-bearing towers with high capacity. The new SLABPROP 2.0 is totally compatible with Slabform and Liteform panel systems.

    Formwork from Doka is playing a key role in constructing the airport’s buildings. At times as many as 80 cranes will be in use. Two-thirds of the formwork for the first construction phase are supplied by Austrian experts for formwork solutions, Doka. On this build the Doka engineers are combining in particular Timber formwork beams H20 eco and H20 top and load-bearing towers, plus Framed formwork Framax Xlife and Frami Xlife and Large-area formwork Top 50.

    Seattle's State Route 99 viaduct is coming down. David Arminas was on site. Bertha, the world’s largest diameter earth pressure balance tunnel boring machine, with a cutterhead diameter of 17.5m, is no more. Her 2.7km journey underneath the waterfront area of Seattle finished on April 4 and the power went off for the last time on an extraordinary TBM that had finally completed an extraordinary job. “A small sidewalk job would have had more impact on city traffic than we have had,” says Brian Russell a v

    As part of the R1 southern orbital motorway around the Czech capital, Prague, a joint venture is building a five-span, 461m long and approximately 65m high viaduct near the village of Lochkov, as a girder bridge construction. For the two steeply inclined twin piers, Doka has supplied an automatic climbing formwork solution that obviates the need for shoring and that will "cut more than 100 days from the construction period."

The engineering build kit was used to build a new 600m long motorway bridge near the southeastern city of Tarnów. Deploying VARIOKIT allowed the jobsite team to achieve 4-5 day cycles for the bridge's concrete sections. It was also said to ensure that the very small tolerances needed for the variable bridge cross-sections could be comfortably met. Twelve pairs of piers support the two carriageways of the new motorw
