    IntroductionElementary safety warnings

    User target groups This manual is aimed at all persons who will be work-

    ing with the Doka product or system that it describes. It contains information on the standard design for setting up this system, and on correct, compliant uti-lisation of the system.

    All persons working with the product described herein must be familiar with the contents of this man-ual and with all the safety instructions it contains.

    Persons who are incapable of reading and under-standing this booklet, or who can do so only with dif-ficulty, must be instructed and trained by the cus-tomer.

    The customer is to ensure that the information mate-rials provided by Doka (e.g. User Information book-lets, Instructions for Assembly and Use, Operating Instruction manuals, plans etc.) are available to all users, and that they have been made aware of them and have easy access to them at the usage location.

    In the relevant technical documentation and form-work utilisation plans, Doka shows the workplace safety precautions that are necessary in order to use the Doka products safely in the usage situations shown. In all cases, users are obliged to ensure compliance with national OH&S (occupational health and safety) rules throughout the entire project and to take appro-priate additional or alternative workplace safety pre-cautions where necessary.

    Hazard assessment The customer is responsible for drawing up, docu-

    menting, implementing and continually updating a hazard assessment at every job-site.This document serves as the basis for the site-spe-cific hazard assessment, and for the instructions given to users on how to prepare and utilise the sys-tem. It does not substitute for these, however.

    Remarks on this document This manual can also be used as a generic method

    statement or incorporated with a site-specific method statement.

    Many of the illustrations in this booklet show the situation during formwork assembly and are therefore not always complete from the safety point of view.Any safety accessories not shown in these illustra-tions must still be used by the customer, in accord-ance with the applicable rules and regulations.

    Further safety instructions, especially warnings, will be found in the individual sections of this document!

    Planning Provide safe workplaces for those using the form-

    work (e.g. for when it is being erected/dismantled, modified or repositioned etc). It must be possible to get to and from these workplaces via safe access routes!

    If you are considering any deviation from the details and instructions given in this booklet, or any application which goes beyond those described in the booklet, then revised static cal-culations must be produced for checking, as well as supplementary assembly instructions.

    Rules applying during all phases of the assignment: The customer must ensure that this product is

    erected and dismantled, reset and generally used for its intended purpose under the direction and super-vision of suitably skilled persons with the authority to issue instructions.These persons' mental and physical capacity must not in any way be impaired by alcohol, medicines or drugs.

    Doka products are technical working appliances which are intended for industrial/commercial use only, always in accordance with the respective Doka User Information booklets or other technical docu-mentation authored by Doka.

    The stability of all components and units must be ensured during all phases of the construction work!

    The functional/technical instructions, safety warn-ings and loading data must all be strictly observed and complied with. Failure to do so can cause acci-dents and severe (even life-threatening) damage to health, as well as very great material damage.

    Fire-sources are not permitted anywhere near the formwork. Heating appliances are only allowed if properly and expertly used, and set up a safe dis-tance away from the formwork.

    The work must take account of the weather condi-tions (e.g. risk of slippage). In extreme weather, steps must be taken in good time to safeguard the equipment, and the immediate vicinity of the equip-ment, and to protect employees.

    All connections must be checked regularly to ensure that they still fit properly and are functioning cor-rectly.It is very important to check all screw-type connec-tions and wedge-clamped joins whenever the con-struction operations require (particularly after excep-tional events such as storms), and to tighten them if necessary.

    Assembly The equipment/system must be inspected by the

    customer before use, to ensure that it is in suitable condition. Steps must be taken to rule out the use of any components that are damaged, deformed, or weakened due to wear, corrosion or rot.

    Combining our formwork systems with those of other manufacturers could be dangerous, risking damage to both health and property. If you intend to combine different systems, please contact Doka for advice first.

    The assembly work must be carried out by suitably qualified employees of the client's.

    It is not permitted to modify Doka products; any such modifications constitute a safety risk.

    Erecting the formwork Doka products and systems must be set up in such

    a way that all loads acting upon them are safely transferred!

    Pouring Do not exceed the permitted fresh-concrete pres-

    sures. Excessively high pouring rates lead to form-work overload, cause greater deflection and risk causing breakage.

    Striking the formwork 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 striking the formwork, never use the crane to break concrete cohesion. Use suitable tools such as timber wedges, special pry-bars or system features such as Framax stripping corners.

    When striking the formwork, do not endanger the stability of any part of the structure, or of any scaf-folding, platforms or formwork that is still in place!

    Transporting, stacking and storing Observe all regulations applying to the handling of

    formwork and scaffolding. In addition, the Doka slinging means must be used - this is a mandatory requirement.

    Remove any loose parts or fix them in place so that they cannot be dislodged or fall free!

    All components must be stored safely, following all the special Doka instructions given in the relevant sections of this manual!

    Regulations; industrial safety Always observe all industrial safety regulations and

    other safety rules applying to the application and uti-lisation of our products in the country and/or region in which you are operating.

    If a person or object falls against, or into, the side-guard component and/or any of its accessories, the component affected may only continue in use after it has been inspected and passed by an expert.

    Maintenance Only original Doka components may be used as

    spare parts. Repairs may only be carried out by the manufacturer or authorised facilities.

    Symbols usedThe following symbols are used in this booklet:

    MiscellaneousWe reserve the right to make alterations in the interests of technical progress.

    Important noteFailure to observe this may lead to malfunc-tion or damage.

    CAUTION / WARNING / DANGERFailure to observe this may lead to material damage, and to injury to health which may range up to the severe or even life-threaten-ing.

    Eurocodes at DokaIn Europe, a uniform series of Standards known as Eurocodes (EC) was developed for the construction field by the end of 2007. These are intended to provide a uniform basis, valid throughout Europe, for product specifications, tenders and mathematical verification.The EC are the world's most highly developed Stand-ards in the construction field.In the Doka Group, the EC are to be used as standard from the end of 2008. They will thus supersede the DIN norms as the "Doka standard" for product design.

    The widely used "Permissible stress design" (compar-ing the actual stresses with the permissible stresses) has been superseded by a new safety concept in the EC.The EC contrast the actions (loads) with the resistance (capacity). The previous safety factor in the permissible stresses is now divided into several partial factors. The safety level remains the same!

    Comparison of the safety concepts (example)

    Ed Design value of effect of actions(E ... effect; d ... design)Internal forces from action Fd(VEd, NEd, MEd)

    Rd Design value of the resistance(R ... resistance; d ... design)Design capacity of cross-section(VRd, NRd, MRd)

    Fd Design value of an action Steel: Rd =Rk Timber: Rd = kmod

    RkFd = F Fk M M(F ... force)

    Fk Characteristic value of an action"actual load", service load(k ... characteristic)e.g. dead weight, live load, concrete pressure, wind

    Rk Characteristic value of the resistancee.g. moment resistance to yield stress

    F Partial factor for actions(in terms of load; F ... force)e.g. for dead weight, live load, concrete pres-sure, windValues from EN 12812

    M Partial factor for a material property(in terms of material; M...material)e.g. for steel or timberValues from EN 12812

    Wall formwork

    Instructions for assembly and useThe sequence shown here is based on a straight wall. However, you should always start to form from the cor-ner outwards.Ladders must be located so as to create viable "traffic routes" in the horizontal. (On a straight wall, for exam-ple, one ladder on the first element and another on the last).

    Pre-assembly Pre-assemble the elements face-down on an

    assembly bench (see "Element assembly").

    Mount the platforms to the face-down element (see "Pouring-platforms with single brackets").

    Mount the ladder system to the face-down element (see "Ladder system").

    Mount panel struts to the face-down element (see "Plumbing accessories").

    Erecting the formwork Attach the crane suspension tackle to the lifting-

    brackets (see "Lifting by crane").

    Pick up the element by crane. Spray the ply with release agent (see "Cleaning and

    care").

    Fly the element to its new location.

    Fix the panel struts firmly to the ground (see "Plumb-ing accessories").

    Mount the top guard-rail board.

    The element is now stable and can be plumbed and aligned exactly, with no need for the crane.

    Detach the element from the crane. Continue lining up elements in this way, and link

    them together (see "Inter-element connections").

    Wall formwork

    Preconditions for use:

    Platforms and all accessories must only be mounted to the element when this is face-down on the ground.

    It must be possible for all formwork set-up, pouring and stripping operations to be carried out from safe workplaces.

    The professionals from the Doka "Ready-to-Use Service" plan and assemble site-ready and custom formworks exactly to your speci-fications.

    CAUTIONNever use a sledge-hammer to plumb and align the elements!This would damage the elements. Use only proper plumbing tools (e.g. a spe-

    cial pry-bar) that cannot cause any damage.

    WARNINGThere is not yet an opposing guard-rail on the formwork!Danger to life from fatal falls! Either use personal protective equipment to

    protect against falls (e.g. Doka safety har-ness)ormount an opposing guard-rail to the element while this is still being pre-assembled in a flat position.

    Erecting the opposing formwork:Once the reinforcement has been placed, the form-work can be closed. Spray the ply with release agent (see "Cleaning and

    care"). Lift the opposing formwork by crane to its next loca-

    tion.

    Working from the ground, insert the bottom rows of form-ties (see "Form-tie system").

    Detach the element from the crane. Insert the remaining form-ties. These form-tie loca-

    tions can be reached from the platforms. Continue lining up elements in this way, and link

    them together (see "Inter-element connections").

    Pouring

    Pour the concrete. Make only moderate use of vibrators, carefully co-

    ordinating the times and locations of vibrator use.

    WARNINGThere is not yet an opposing guard-rail on the formwork!Danger to life from fatal falls! Use personal fall arrest systems to protect

    against falls (e.g. Doka safety harness).

    Before disconnecting from the crane: If there are no panel struts on the opposing

    formwork, do not disconnect the element from the crane until a large enough number of form-ties have been installed to keep it safely in the upright.

    Striking

    Remove any loose items from the formwork and plat-forms, or secure them firmly.

    Begin work on striking the formwork on the oppos-ing formwork: Undo the connectors to the adjacent elements.

    Take out the form-ties from the top rows of ties. These form-tie locations can be reached from the platforms.

    Attach the element (incl. platforms) to the crane. Working from the ground, take out the bottom rows

    of form-ties.

    Lift the element away and to its next location, or place it face-down for intermediate storage.

    Clean residual concrete off the formwork sheet (see "Cleaning and care").

    Where the element has panel struts attached to it, first attach this element to the crane, and only then detach the floor anchorages of the panel struts.

    Observe the stipulated striking times.

    WARNING There must be at least as many form-ties left

    in place as are needed to keep the element safely in the upright.

    WARNINGThe formwork tends to adhere to the concrete. When stripping the formwork, do not try to break concrete cohesion using the crane!Risk of crane overload. Use suitable tools such as timber wedges or

    a special pry-bar to detach the formwork from the concrete.

    Flexibility

    SizeTop 50 elements can be assembled in widths of up to 6 m and in heights of up to 12 m.

    Pressure of fresh concreteDepending on the concrete pressure required, the Doka beams and the walings are spaced closer together or further apart. This ensures optimum form-work design and the greatest economy of materials.For more information on structural design of Top 50 elements, see "Structural design".

    SurfaceAny type of form-face can be used, as required: Doka formwork sheets 3-SO Dokaplex formwork sheets Doka textured formwork sheets Xlife sheets Tongue-and-groove board formwork etc.The tie-hole pattern and the element size-grid are eas-ily adapted to suit architectural demands. The large-area elements and exact connections deliver perfect joint patterns.

    ShapeCreating complex concrete shapes demands a high degree of formwork flexibility. On the large-area form-work Top 50, this is achieved by the use of profiled tim-ber formers.

This is a particular advantage for formwork with high numbers of repeat uses.Possible thicknesses of form-ply: 18 - 27 mmIn order to fit the form-ply protector, a 30 mm diameter hole must be drilled in the form-ply first.If necessary, the form-ply protector fitted into the form-ply can be closed off with the Framax plug R20/25.

    Form-tie system 20.0

    Operating the form-tie from one sideThe Top50 form-tie nut 15.0 or Top100 tec form-tie nut 20.0 makes it possible to operate the form-tie from one end of the tie (e.g. where space is tight).Suitable for U100, U120 and U140 walings with a 50 mm waling-gap.The form-tie nut has an integrated stopper plate for the tie-rod.

    b ... 10 cm

    How to mount: Hook the form-tie nut onto the waling and clamp it on

    firmly with the integrated star-grip nut. Screw in the tie-rod of the opposing formwork as far

    as the stopper plate. Fix the form-tie with the super-plate.

    Inside corners

    with Corner waling 20With the Corner waling 20, it is possible to make a gen-uine inside-corner element. The Doka beams give the element the necessary rigidity, and also ensure dimen-sional accuracy.The adjacent Top 50 elements are fastened with the normal connector components.

    Tying in the Corner waling 20Corner walings 20 manufactured from 2010 onwards can also be tied using the Eye-lug tie rod 15.0.

    with Internal angle plate H20 Top50An economical way of making inside corners with a closure function. (For closures of up to 32 cm in 1 cm increments)By nailing a form-ply to the end face of standard ele-ments, these are turned into corner elements. The con-crete pressure on the end face is transferred by means of reinforcements (e.g. Fastening plate) on the edge beam.

    See "Element assembly" for more information on how to mount the inside corner.

Because of the "pull-tight function hole-grid", it is not possible to mount the Formwork element connector FF20 Z one hole-grid further along.In this case, use an Anchoring plate FF20/50 instead.

    Acute & obtuse-angled cornersFor non-right-angled corners, too, the standard compo-nents of the Large-area formwork Top 50 will always provide an optimum solution.

    Outside cornersIn a similar way to the right-angled corners, on outside corners the elements are also mainly connected using Universal angle tie brackets.

    Inside corners

    with Articulated connecting plate A Top50 ..... Can be used on walings of 0.75 m and longer Makes it possible to set two steel walings at any

    angle (in a range between 61 and 299) Can be used over and over again

    If there are no planned moments that need to be trans-ferred by the connecting plate (i.e. if it is being used as an ordinary user-adjustable form connector), it is suffi-cient to tighten the threaded joint using ordinary tools such as the Reversible ratchet 3/4".In order to achieve the stability required when the form-work is being lifted, a force of approx. 400 N should be applied to the approx. 75 cm long lever arm of a "Reversible ratchet 3/4" (to give a tightening torque of approx. 300 Nm).When used in this way as an ordinary user-adjustable form connector, it is not necessary to insert a new alu-minium locking ring. The hexagonal bolt M30x90 and the nut of the connection must always be greased before being tightened.

    with Half splice plateHalf splice plates are used for fabricating low-cost cor-ner plates, with any angle, directly on the site.To make a corner plate in this way, two Half splice plates are needed. After the formwork has been plumbed at the prescribed angle, these two plates must be welded firmly together.

    with Swivel joint plateThe Swivel joint plate is an alternative to using two Half splice plates welded onto one another. Angles of between 45 and 180 are possible. Rough adjustment is carried out in 35.7 mm incre-

    ments (= 1/3 of the hole-grid of the Multipurpose wal-ing).

    Fine adjustment is carried out using the integral adjusting thread, with a max. theoretical formwork deviation of 2.5 mm.

    Use suitable sealing tapes on any gaps which occur at joints.

    Stop-end formwork

    The Large-area formwork Top 50 is a complete form-work system. As such, it also offers practical solutions for e.g. the stop-end formwork.

    Walls up to approx. 20 cm thickPlanks are simply nailed onto the Top 50 element and a strip of formwork sheeting is inserted.

    Walls thicker than approx. 20 cmThe Anchoring plate FF 20/50 ensures that the loads are safely transferred into the waling system of the Top 50 elements.

    The tie rods are screwed into the Anchoring plate, and the correct spacing of the stop-end element is adjusted using the Super plate 15.0.

    Vertical stacking of elementsThe vertical-stacking methods shown here are only suitable for: lifting setting down and crane-handlingthe formwork.

    with Stacking plate H20The Stacking plate H20 serves as a bolt-on longitudinal connector for Doka beams, and is used for vertical stacking of formwork elements. The plate is bolted onto the beams through the pre-drilled holes at either end of the beam.

    a ... min. 40 cm

    The number of Stacking plates H20 needed will depend on the overall height of the gang-form: Up to an overall height of 6.0m: A Stacking plate

    H20 must be fastened to every other beam. Up to an overall height of 8.0m: A Stacking plate

    H20 must be fastened to every beam.In addition, it is advisable to place extra multipurpose walings across the horizontal joins, in order to achieve greater stability.

    Over 8.0 m, up to a max. overall height of 14.0 m: A Stacking plate H20 must be fastened to every beam.In addition, it is absolutely essential to place extra multipurpose walings across the horizontal joins, in order to achieve sufficient stability.

    Included in scope of supply: 4 hexagonal bolts M20x70 (width-across 30 mm) 4 hexagon nuts M20 4 spring washers A20

    Note:Make sure that the bolted connections are tightened firmly!

    with board-platesAn in-situ solution that often works well in practice. The existing holes at the end of the beam can be used for making the bolted connections.

    Items needed for each beam join:

    *) It is also possible to use strips of 3-SO 21 or 27 mm formwork sheet instead of the planks.

    Important note:The vertical stacking joint must not be exposed to loads from concrete pressure or concrete weight. This means: that the cantilever arms at the beam-joints

    must be as short and symmetrical as possi-ble,

    or that users must take all statically required measures (e.g. extra waling level).

    Shaft formwork

    Shaft formwork with Stripping cor-ner I and Transition plateWith the Stripping corner I, the entire shaft formwork unit is detached from the wall, in one piece, before being lifted and reset by crane.Product features: No negative impression in the concrete. Formwork set-up and stripping function integrated in

    the inside corner (no need for crane uses stripping spindles).

    Entire shaft formwork unit is lifted and reset in one piece (with lifting-brackets and four-part lifting chain).

    Two different types of stripping spindle can be used for setting up and stripping the formwork: Framax stripping spindle I with ratchet Framax stripping spindle IThe Transition plate makes it possible to use the Framax stripping corner I with Large-area formwork Top 50.

    Vertical stacking of Framax stripping corners I1) Pull out the coupling bolt.2) Manoeuvre the Stripping corner I into place so that

    it is flush with the one below it.3) Push the coupling bolt back in.4) Bolt the Stripping corners I together with 2 hexago-

    nal bolts M16x45.

    Mounting the Framax stripping spindles IThese mounting instructions apply to both Stripping spindles I and Stripping spindles I with ratchet.1) Pull out the U-bolt from the stripping spindle.2) Place the stripping spindle on the centering stud of

    the stripping corner.3) Twist the stripping spindle clockwise until fully

    engaged.4) Position the ratchet or spindle nut between the

    holes in the push-rod.5) Fix the stripping spindle with the U-bolt.

    Striking the formwork

    Loosen the form-ties on one half of the formwork. Remove the form-ties from the other half of the form-

    work. Remove all 4 connecting pins from the Shaft waling

    squaring plates. Loosen the Corner spindles and Inside corner plates. Pull out the Inside corner plates by crane. Use the Corner spindles to pull the Inside formwork

    approx. 2 - 3 cm together. Remove the remaining form-ties. Use the Corner spindles to pull the Inside formwork

    approx. 2 - 3 cm further together. Lift and reposition the entire inside formwork.

    Resetting by craneUse suitably long lifting-chains or 3 two-part lifting chains in order to avoid oblique pull (depending on the size of the shaft).

    If there is too much oblique pull, a stiffening reinforce-ment will be needed.For further information, see the section headed "Reset-ting by crane".

    Doka shaft platformWith its telescopic shaft beams, this platform can accommodate any dimension of structure. The inside formwork can be "parked" on the platform and reposi-tioned together with the platform.

    To make the formwork easier to strip: Approx. 2 hours after pouring, loosen the Inside corner plate and pull it out a short way by crane.

    Plumbing accessories

    Plumbing accessories brace the formwork against wind loads and make it easier to plumb and align.

    Permitted spacings [m] of the plumbing accesso-ries:

    The values apply where the wind pressure we = 0.65 kN/m2. This results in a dynamic pressure qp = 0.5 kN/m2 (102 km/h) where cp, net = 1.3. The greater wind loads encountered at exposed formwork-ends must be constructionally sustained by additional plumb-ing accessories (e.g. struts or pipe-braces). In cases where higher wind pressure is encountered, the num-ber of struts must be determined by statical calculation.

    Note:Every gang-form must be supported by at least 2 plumbing accessories.

    Example: Where the formwork height is 7.00 m, the fol-lowing are needed for every 8.00 m wide gang-form: 2 Panel struts 340 2 Eurex 60 550 / Adjustable plumbing struts

    Pouring platforms with single brackets

    Doka brackets can be used to make pouring platforms that can easily be assembled by hand.They can be attached to any point on the Doka beam. This also makes it possible to erect intermediate plat-forms.

    Universal brackets

    Possible ways of fixing

    Preconditions for use:

    Observe all applicable safety regulations.

    Only fix the pouring platform onto formwork construc-tions that are sufficiently stable to transfer the expected loads.

    Ensure that the formwork gang has sufficient stiff-ness.

    Shore the formwork in a windproof manner when erecting it and when it is temporarily placed in the standing position.

    The brackets must be secured against acciden-tal lift-out

    Pouring platforms

    Framax pouring platform U 1.25/2.70mPre-assembled, collapsible, ready-to-use platform with width of 1.25 m for convenient, safe working.

    The guard rail can be locked in either of two posi-tions:

    - vertical- tilted by 15

    With the aid of the Top50 adapter for Framax pouring platform U, the Framax pouring platform U can be fixed in the waling of the Top 50 elements (2 adapt-ers per pouring platform).

    Preparing the pouring platform: Tilt up the guard rails and lock them in position.

    Put both side stops into position.

    Close the decking with the tilt-back board.

    Preconditions for use:

    Observe all applicable safety regulations.

    Only fix the pouring platform onto formwork construc-tions that are sufficiently stable to transfer the expected loads.

    Ensure that the formwork gang has sufficient stiff-ness.

    Shore the formwork in a windproof manner when erecting it and when it is temporarily placed in the standing position.

    If the formwork is lifted with the pouring plat-form still mounted to it, the platform must be secured so that it cannot slip to either side.

    It is NOT allowed to place the formwork on its side while the pouring platform is still mounted!

    For length adjustments, it may be necessary to place floor planking as a bridge (max. 50 cm) between two platforms. Minimum plank overlap: 25 cm.

    Mounting the adapter: Using a four-part lifting tackle, slightly raise the pour-

    ing platform. Dismount the screw from the platform connector of

    the adapter. Push the telescopic tube of the adapter into the bot-

    tom tubular opening on the Pouring platform U. Replace and tighten the screw on the platform con-

    nector of the adapter. An extra plank can be mounted where necessary

    (leave recesses for the adapters). When you have mounted the adapters on the Pour-

    ing platform U, lay it back on the ground.

    Lifting the platform onto the formwork: Attach a four-part lifting chain to the hoisting points

    of the adapters at the front, and to the lifting-brackets of the platform railings at the rear.

    Raise the safety catches of the adapters and latch them into the rear position.

    Move the supporting profiles into the horizontal and slot the Pouring platform U onto the adapters on the steel walings.

    Secure the platform against accidental lift-out: Raise the safety catches and latch them into the front position (the claw grips behind the steel waling).

    Detach the four-part lifting chain.Lifting the platform off the formwork: Attach a four-part lifting chain to the hoisting points

    of the adapters at the front, and to the lifting-brackets of the platform railings at the rear.

    Release the safety catch by hand. Lift the pouring platform out of the way.

    Ladder systemThe Ladder system XS permits safe vertical access to and from the intermediate platforms and pouring plat-forms: when attaching/detaching the formwork to/from the

    crane tackle when opening/closing the formwork when placing the reinforcement during pouring

    Note:The Ladder system XS must be implemented in such a way that all national regulations are complied with.

    Assembly instructions

    Preparing the formwork Pre-assemble elements face-down on an assembly

    bench (see "Inter-element connections"). Only mount the platforms and panel struts to the ele-

    ment when this is in the flat position (see "Pouring platforms" and "Plumbing accessories").

    Attaching connectors to the formwork

    Place the "Connector XS wall formwork" onto the Multi-purpose waling near the top of the formwork and place a squared timber under it (pressure point). Nail the squared timber to the Doka beams.

    Fasten the "Connector XS wall formwork" to the wal-ing with a tie-rod and 2 super-plates.

    WARNING The Ladders XS may only be used as part of

    the XS system, and must NOT be used sep-arately (as "lean-to" ladders).

    9732

    -393

    -01

    Important note: The Ladder system XS is normally mounted inside an element (i.e. not to either side of it).

    If this is not possible (e.g. because of a sup-porting construction frame), then a beam grille (consisting of min. 4 Doka beams) can be attached on one side of the element to make this possible. This also makes it possi-ble to change quickly to another position.
