RMD Kwikform has unveiled a new single-sided wall formwork system
with a maximum height of 9.6m and maximum pressure of 60kN/m2. The
Ultraframe system comes in three sections providing intermediate
heights of 5m and 7.3m, with a maximum footprint of 4.79m.
The system also has a load-anchorage capacity of 500kN per frame which the company says eliminates the need for wall ties and external raking props: cast-in anchor templates are said to provide accurate and secure frame alignment.
Meanwhile, 16 of the company's Megatrusses and 12 sets of four Megashor raking props have been used by joint-venture contractor CSM for the construction of approach viaducts for the new M2 Medway Bridge.
Each 82m span requires the use of eight 6.3m by 128m trusses. The overall weight of the assembly is about 900t, but it can be moved along the viaduct.
