Wall Braces
Wall braces and accessories are
available for plumbing and aligning
the formwork (Fig.41.1). If braces
are used to resist wind or other
loads, the bracing system and
anchorages must be designed by
a competent person in accordance
with all applicable governmental
regulations, codes, and ordinances.
Wall braces are attached to the
panels at the multi-function
profiles using formwork prop
connectors and flange screws
(Fig.41.2). Shoe plates must
be installed and anchored at
the bottom of the formwork
(Fig.41.4). The allowable uplift
on the shoe plate is 2000lb when
properly anchored. The base of
the brace is anchored using the
articulated foot plate (Fig.41.5).
If adequate foundations are not
present to resist the required loads,
temporary footings or deadmen
will be needed.
Formwork must be kept stable at
all times. Each individual wall form
section must be supported by at
least two braces.
Note:
When installing R160 and/or
R250 make sure the inner tube is
attached at the formwork prop
connector.
Always ensure G-hook is properly
engaged on props prior to
releasing gangs from crane
(Fig.41.3).
