Bearing Details

This document provides technical guidance on bearing details for Omnia precast concrete permanent formwork panels and planks. It discusses support considerations for the panels on steelwork, in-situ concrete, and masonry. For steelwork, it recommends a nominal 55mm bearing and notes that differential levels may require a compressible bitumen strip. For in-situ concrete, it recommends casting a fully homogenous slab for support or arranging links to allow 65mm bearing if using half-cast beams. For masonry, it recommends a nominal 60mm bearing set back 30mm from the cavity.
