Assembly, Erection and Stripping
Erecting the Second Side
(Closing)
For handset erection:
1. Depending on the tie system,
some tie components may need to
be installed on the first (set) side
prior to erecting any second side
panels:
1.1. For threadbar ties, insert
the threadbar through the set
side formwork extending to the
required wall thickness. Install PVC
sleeves and spacer cones over the
threadbar.
1.2. For pass-through shebolts,
install the set side shebolts with
inner units.
1.3. For steel cone shebolts, install
steel cones, inner units, and set
side threadbar.
1.4. If taper ties or pass-through
shebolts are used, spacers are
recommended to maintain wall
thickness and facilitate plumbing
forms.
2. Apply form release agent to the
second side panels and set the first
one into place (Fig.52.1). Anchor
braces and install and anchor shoe
plates if being used on second
side. Otherwise, install taper ties
or remaining components of other
tie systems and secure with flange
nuts.
Caution:
If braces are used on the first side
only, second side panel must be
held in place until ties are installed
and the formwork is secured on
both sides.
3. Continue erecting the second
side panels in the same manner,
connecting them with assembly
locks (Fig.52.2).
4. Install the walkway brackets if
used on second side.
For gang forming:
The second side is erected in the
same manner as for handset,
except pre-assembled gangs are
set instead of individual panels (see
"Erecting the First Side, For gang
forming").
