PLASTIC PLATES: ALKUSBECONA also offers ALKUS reinforced plastic plates for sale.
CONSUMABLESBECONA offers a wide range of accessories to simplify the placing, use and maintenance of your formwork.
CLEANING AND REPAIR SERVICEBECONA has an automated wash installation at its disposal where it is possible to clean you panels, independent of which make or model. System formwork with plastic plating can be repaired in our workshop.
BECONA DOES BETTER!The current formwork solutions have seen no ma-jor evolutionary changes over the last 20 years. It is one of the few building sectors which have taken little to no advantage of technological progress. The daily usage highlights the problems and irritations caused by the current systems: bending of the pan-els, limited modulability in usage, just to name but a few.
It is for this reason that BECONA developed their own new and revolutionary formwork solution. The panels that are used in the system are no long-er made of wood, but of reinforced plastic. This en-sures a very smooth concrete surface thanks to the special coating.
BECONA offers a wide range of products to serve both large and small projects, which are all based on the new, self-developed formwork technology.
Whether you are a contractor or a private individual, you can visit us for the rent and/or purchase of your system formwork, custom orders or consumables. Thanks to our flexible team, our reinforced plastic plating from Alkus and our finely tuned system, we can guarantee a unique quality and service.

PRIMUS FORMWORK SYSTEM
IMPORTANT!The dimensional stability is crucial in resuming the formwork in vertical pouring’s. This dimensional stability is achieved by using the robust double cross sections.
COLUMN FORMWORKThe column panels are universal. They can also be used as wall panels. The robust double cross sections prevent shear on the plastic plates.
The welded aluminium adjusting block makes it possible to adjust the panels per cm.
Protective plastic casings en-sure that the plastic plates don’t get damaged. The conical edge ensures that the sealing caps stay in place.
With the column panels it is possible to make a column in windmill vane form or semi-traditional.

� STABILITYBuilding a large surface formwork gives stability. Every-thing is self-explanatory. Simple and safe!
� FLEXIBLEOne of the most important traits that a good formwork sys-tem must have is “flexibility”. The pieces need to be modu-lar, so that the constructor can make the perfect formwork with a minimum of time and material.
With the system from BECONA that is definitely the case. There is a specific solution for every concrete need.

QUALITY CREATES CONFIDENCE
The PRIMUS formwork system is thought through till in the smallest detail: walls, columns and beams are all in one system, which is also per cm adjustable.The Alkus plates are attached completely from the rear side. This ensures a completely flat front side.
The thickness of the aluminium edge profile is 142 mm. This results in a high resistibility to the concrete pressure and limits bending.
The cross sections ensure a faster, securer attachment of the scaffolding, push-pull props and the construction beams by using only one article, the hammerhead bolt.
The rabbet on the outside edge profile ensures:
� a perfect connection during construction
� easy formwork removal
� fast cleaning
• The openings on the side of the edge profiles offer numerous attachment possibilities
• The alu-formwork panel is covered with a special coating and this ensures easier cleaning and a longer life span.
• The attached screw heads ensure that the flange nuts don’t get lost when the panels are being dismantled.

� Measurement consistency [No swelling]
� Long life: 7 years guarantee
� Perfect for architectural concrete
� Very easily repaired
� Cleaning costs are limited
� 50% less release agent needed
� No silicon sealing around edges
� Does not absorb damp and therefore does not swell. It is because of this that there are no inequalities in the con-crete, in other words ready to decorate with wallpaper

ALU-PRIMUS 60 kN/m2
Bending in formwork is a problem which occurs often. With the new system from BECONA this is a thing of the past.
The stability of this formwork is one of the most important advantages of this newly developed technology
IMPORTANT!In the calculation of the formwork panels we take into account the bending of the panels as well as the mate-rial tension. With a load of 60 kN/m² the material tension is not exceeded. This determines the lifespan of the formwork panels.
Concrete pressures are dependent on the concrete pouring rate and external temperatures:
THE PRIMUS ALU-FORMWORKS CAN SUSTAIN LOADS OF UP TO 60 kN/M² OF CONCRETE PRESSURE
Height to be poured at a time

5 m 58 kN 58 kN
6 m 60 kN 60 kN
� A=pour rate m/hour
� B=external temperature in °C
� Specific weight: 2500 kg/m³
The concrete is to be poured from a not too great height in order to avoid localised pressure.
Deep vibration of the poured concrete adds extra concrete pressure and must be avoided. The use of external vibrators is forbidden. Always compact the concrete with an immersion vibrator.
All corners must have additional shoring. External corners are never to be used on the inside corners of the poured walls!

CLOSED LIFT COREClosed lift core with self-releasing crimp cornersLift cores and concrete pits are quickly released with the MAGNUS crimp corners. By turning on the spindle system the entire lift core shrinks and releases from the concrete.
The entire core can be removed without dismantling. This can save a lot of man hours.
