Main Features
Purpose
Modular formwork and support structure for shaping concrete elements of various sizes, capable of withstanding high-pressure loads during concrete pouring.
Material
Made of high-grade, corrosion-resistant steel, often galvanized or painted for durability.
Modularity
Composed of steel panels, beams, and support elements that can be configured for multiple projects, promoting cost efficiency.
High Load-Bearing Capacity
Designed to maintain stability under heavy concrete loads, ensuring structural integrity.
Versatility
Suitable for various applications, including wall formwork, slab support, and column formwork, customizable for specific project needs.
Components of the Steel Blank System
- Steel Panels: Provide a flat surface for concrete shaping, available in various sizes, reinforced for stability with connection slots or holes.
- Steel Beams: Offer horizontal and vertical support, distributing load evenly across formwork.
- Connecting Elements: Clamps, wedges, bolts, and splice connectors secure panels and beams together.
- Support Elements: Adjustable props, U-heads, and base plates support panels during concrete setting.
- Bracing: Cross braces between panels and beams prevent movement during pouring.
