Elementary safety warnings
Symbols usedThe following symbols are used in this booklet:
MiscellaneousWe reserve the right to make alterations in the inter-ests of technical progress.Unless otherwise stated, all dimensions are given in cm.
� Doka products and systems must be set up in such a way that all loads acting upon them are safely transferred!
� The stability of all components and units must be ensured during all phases of the construc-tion work!
� Provide safe workplaces for those using the formwork (e.g. for when it is being erected/dis-mantled, modified or repositioned etc). It must be possible to get to and from these workplaces via safe access routes!
� Do not exceed the permitted fresh-concrete pressures. Excessively high pouring rates lead to formwork overload, cause greater deflection and risk causing breakage.
� Do not strike the formwork until the concrete has reached sufficient strength and the person in charge has given the order for the formwork to be struck!
� When stripping the gang-form, never use the crane to break concrete cohesion. Use suitable tools such as timber wedges or a special pry-bar.
� When striking the formwork, do not endanger the stability of any part of the structure, or of any scaffolding, platforms or formwork that is still in place!
� Observe all regulations applying to the hand-ling of formwork and scaffolding. In addition, the Doka slinging means must be used - this is a mandatory requirement.

System description
Automatic climbing formwork SKE -
The crane-independent climbing
formwork for structures of any
shape and height
The SKE system is used for raising:� large-area formwork elements� together with the climbing scaffold� in one single step� and without any crane assistanceby one casting section at a time.
Safety is always absolutely paramount here
The Doka automatic climbers are tested by inde-pendent institutes, who also certify their high qual-ity and safety.
Superlative product quality
� Sturdy hot-dip galvanised components� Certified to ISO 9002
Maximum safety in all phases of the work
� The climbing scaffold remains anchored to the concrete at all times.
� The lifting mechanism is safely coupled to the climbing profile in every situation.
� Wide working platforms, enclosed by handrails on all sides, enhance both safety and speed.
Hydromechanical drive provides optimum
control and operational safety
� Simultaneous controlling of:- up to 30 automatic climbers- by remote-control- from anywhere on the platform
� Isolation valves on the hydraulic cylinders� Open ring main� Closed ring main� Hydraulic units equipped with all necessary con-
trol features
High load-bearing capacity
Doka offers 2 models of automatic climber:� SKE 50, with 5 tonnes' lifting capacity per auto-
matic climber, and� SKE 100, with 10 tonnes' lifting capacity per auto-
matic climberThis enables the formwork to be optimally dimen-sioned to suit each project, which in turn greatly enhances the economic efficiency.
Makes work independent of climatic influ-
ences
� Permits safe working at wind speeds of up to 70 km/h
� Climbing can take place regardless of climatic influences. Working platforms can be weather-proofed.
The advantages of "section-at-a-time" climb-
ing
� Freely selectable workflow with no need for "round-the-clock" working
� The cycles are optimised for the construction task in question, right from the planning stage.
� Project-specific live load ratings� Rapid work rhythm
Set up, strip, climb- with no need for a crane- in any weather- independently of other forming operations
such as subsequently formed floor-slabs and walls
- short repositioning time of 1-2 hours, depend-ing on the height of the casting section and the number of automatic climbers
Optimum adaptability to every layout
The Doka automatic climber SKE is a single-unit lift-ing appliance. This results in:� optimum configurations, irrespective of the
shape of the layout� flexibility with regard to element widths� the most economical solution can be achieved
for all layouts of buildings, piers or shafts.
Doka planning service
Doka will be pleased to plan an economical form-work solution for you, and partial pre-assembly of the formwork by the Doka Ready-to-Use Service will save both man-hours and space on the site.
Doka field service
Our supervising foremen and engineers will advise you right the way through from when the formwork is assembled to when it is first used, up to and including the typical operating sequence, and give the forming crew introductory training on-site.

SKE 50 systemLoad capacity: 5 tonnes per bracket
The SKE 50 system is the ideal solution for the majority of climbing assignments. Because it is a single-unit climbing scaffold, the brackets and auto-matic climbers can be freely positioned.Casting-section heights: up to 5.50 m
Formwork systems:
� FF20 and Top 50 timber-beam formwork� Framax and Alu-Framax framed formwork
SKE 100 systemLoad capacity: 10 tonnes per bracket
When exceptionally tough requirements are made of the automatic climbing technology, the SKE 100 system really comes into its own - with its high 10t load capacity and a platform system that allows work to be carried out simultaneously at several levels. The extremely strong brackets permit varia-ble and – where needed – extra-wide cantilever cen-tres.Casting-section heights: up to 5.50 m
Formwork systems:
� FF20 and Top 50 timber-beam formwork� Framax and Alu-Framax framed formwork

General remarks User information Doka automatic climbing formwork
Hydraulic systemThe SKE automatic climbers are "jumped" with the aid of a hydraulic ring-main system. The ring-main system is based on a stationary hydraulic unit designed to provide uniform, simultaneous drive for up to 30 automatic climbers. The number of automatic climbers that can be raised jointly in one climbing cycle must be appropriate for the structure and the construction workflow, and not so many that it is no longer possible to "keep track" of them all.
� A high number of cylinders can be operated simultaneously
� Open and closed ring-mains are possible- open: for a small n° of automatic climbers- closed: for a large n° of automatic climbers.
The pressure build-up takes place from 2 sides.� The hydraulic unit is equipped with cooling and
heating systems and a portable control panel� Can be combined with a radio remote-control
system

Hydraulic ring-main systemInstallation principle
Ring-main system with stationary hydraulic unit. Suitable for driving SKE automatic climbers in an even, uniform way.
Open ring main
In this configuration, the Circular mains 6.50m are not routed back to the hydraulic unit.
Closed ring main
Both the pressure hoses and the return-flow hoses are routed back to the hydraulic unit here. This makes for a more uniform pressure build-up in longer hoselines.

Anchoring on the structure
Positioning point and suspension
point
Components:
Both the positioning points and the suspension points are prepared using one single type of cone, the Universal climbing cone (A) .
The Cone screw B 7cm (C) also fulfils 2 functions:� On the positioning point - for fastening the Uni-
versal climbing cone.� On the suspension point – as a safe means of sus-
pending the climbing unit.
Preferably, stop-anchors (D) are used, or – depend-ing on the characteristics of the structure – pigtail anchors (E) .
Anchoring systems
The decisive criterion for the choice of anchoring system is the tensile forces that will occur.

Suspension shoes
These ensure that the automatic climbers are safely suspended in all phases of the work.
Suspension shoe SKE 50 rigid
Is used for safe suspension of the climbing carriage and of the climbing profile.
Is fastened in the� Universal climbing cone using the � Cone screw B 7 cm.
Suspension shoe SKE 100
Is used for safe suspension of the climbing carriage and of the climbing profile.
Consisting of:� Suspension beam (L) and� Drop-in shoe (M)
The Suspension beam is fastened in the� Universal climbing cones using � Cone screws B 7 cm(2 of each per Suspension beam).
Preparing the positioning point and
suspension point
➤ Do not place concrete directly above the pigtail or stop-anchors.
➤ Do not allow the vibrator to touch the pigtail or stop-anchors.
These measures prevent the anchors working loose during pouring and vibration.
➤ Every time the Universal climbing cones are used, fit them with new sealing sleeves first.
9751-236-01
M
L
Warning!
➤ Always screw the pigtail or stop-anchor into the Universal climbing cone until it fully engages (i.e. up to the depth mark).Not screwing the anchor sufficiently far into the cone may subsequently lead to reduced load-bearing capacity and to the failure of the suspension point – resulting in injury and damage.
➤ Never weld or heat tie-rods - risk of frac-ture!
➤ For the positioning point and suspension point, ONLY use Cone screws B 7 cm (head of screw is red, to indicate its high load-bearing capacity)!
Make marks on the top edge of the form-work so that you can easily see where the anchoring points are during pouring.
� � The axis of the universal climbing cone must be at right-angles to the surface of the concrete – maximum angle of devia-tion: 2°.
� Tolerance for locating the positioning points and suspension points: ±1 cm in the horizontal and the vertical.

Automatic climbing formwork SKE 50 with gallowsIn this variant of the automatic climbing formwork, the automatic climbers are only needed on one side of the wall. As in the standard variant, the formwork is permanently attached to the climbing scaffold and so can be plumbed and aligned very exactly. This means that the opposing formwork (sus-pended from the gallows on the other side) can eas-ily be aligned with the fixed formwork.The wide platforms on top of the gallows construc-tion greatly facilitate the preliminary reinforcement work, pouring, and equipment storage.
Variant 1Is mostly used for façades and walls that are poured ahead of (i.e. separately from) the floor slabs.

Loading dataIn line with standard building practice, the statical design for the SKE 100 automatic climbers must allow for two different load situations:
� Loads imposed in the statically anchored situa-tion, i.e. while construction tasks are being car-ried out.
� Loads imposed during climbing, i.e. while the connected platforms are being moved into their new working position.

Schematic workflowAutomatic climbers can cover a wide area of practi-cal applications.Their modular design enables them to be combined in many different ways.This means that in some projects, they will be put together differently, and a different sequence of operations will be needed, from the schematic workflow shown here (e.g. for sloping walls).

Platform scaffold SKE 100Example – pour-heights from 3.86 to 4.45 m
The Platform scaffold of the SKE 100 is the basis for a complete, self-contained platform system. The number of platform-levels varies from project to project.Even when the formwork is being removed and re-set, all the platform levels are always enclosed by all-round handrails. Forming and reinforcement-placing operations can be carried out above one another, at the same time.The Platform scaffold can be freely positioned, irre-spective of how widely or closely the Climbing units are spaced. This enables it to be optimally adapted to suit the requirements of the structure.
Folding platformThe folding platform widens the platform-level, making reinforcement work much easier. To make it possible to manoeuvre the climbing profiles into place, and to transport materials downwards, the platform can simply be swung up out of the way.
