Steel Engineering Automatic Bridge Climbing Formwork

Steel Engineering Automatic Bridge Climbing Formwork Types Crane Climbing Formwork: The working platform and the formwork are a unit Steel Climbing Formwork (crane-climbing): in this type of climbing formwork, the Climbing Formwork around the structure is displaced upwards with the help of one or more cranes once the hardening of the concrete has proceeded far enough. Concrete Climbing Formwork may entail lifting the whole section, or be achieved segmentally. Climbing formwork (self-climbing): In this type of formwork, the structure elevates itself with the help of mechanic leverage equipment (usually hydraulic). To do this, Multi-Level Climbing Formwork is usually fixed to sacrificial cones or rails emplaced in the previously cast concrete. Gliding formwork: This type of Climbing Formwork is similar to the self-climbing type above. However, the climbing process is continuous instead of intermittent, and is usually only interrupted for a very short time (for example to fix th…
