Steel Blank

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.

Technical Specifications:

• Material: High-strength steel with corrosion resistance.
• Panel Sizes: Typically 0.5 m to 3 m in height, 0.3 m to 1.2 m in width; thickness from 2 mm to 5 mm for high-pressure loads.
• Load Capacity: Supports heavy concrete loads, depending on configuration.
• Adjustability: Adjustable props and connectors allow dimension customization.
• Connections: Secure connection points with bolts, clamps, and fasteners.

Advantages:

• High Strength: Durable steel for large-scale projects.
• Reusability: Designed for multiple uses, reducing costs.
• Customizable: Modular system adapts to varied requirements.
• Easy Assembly: Quick setup with standard connectors, saving labor time.

Applications:

• Wall Formwork: Strong, stable surface for concrete walls.
• Slab Support: Used for shoring in slab casting.
• Column Formwork: Suitable for forming concrete columns.
• Complex Structures: Adaptable to support curved or angled concrete structures.
