UNI-LITE SCAFFOLD BRACKET

To be used for installation of walking platforms or service platforms in combination with
wooden or steel planks. The scaffold bracket is easily joined to the formwork panels
through its fixing head. It is recommended to contain the distance between two scaffold
brackets by no more than 1.8 m. The walking platforms must have timber board at the
bottom, the middle and top of the scaffold bracket post. Access to the walking platforms
by suitable ladders. Once the platforms have been installed on top of the formwork,
the opposite side of the scaffold bracket should also be protected by a suitable railing.
Any other outer entrances should be closed off according to strict safety regulations.

QUICK ACTING CLAMP

This clamp connects adjacent formwork elements. Due to the notch that runs along the
frame’s profile, the elements can be placed at any point on the frame’s perimeter (preferably
close to the stiffeners), allowing the connection to occur at any point. This provides a
continuous junction of elements at height in any position.

TIE ROD
A tie rod is used to ‘tie’ the formwork together during the casting operations. The rod
is produced to a standard length of 6m and cut to the required length on the construction
site. The bars can be reused after the works but, prior to casting, it is recommended
to insert them in a PVC tube (type 22/26) for an easier extraction.

For correct usage the bar should be equipped with appropriate accessories which include
wing nuts and hexagon nuts.

It is available :
- in two heights : H = 300 cm e H = 150 cm
- in two widths : L = 20 cm e L = 25 cm

They are used in combination with Uni-Lite framed formwork to form round structures of any radius
(minimum inside radius = 180 cm)

All Uni-Lite accessories such as scaffold brackets or panel struts can therefore be used;
only quick acting clamps are necessary to connect circular formworks to Uni-Lite framed formwork.

Stripping corner adapter

The shaft stripping corner strips the shaft formwork and shifts it in one go without dismantling every single element.
The inner stripping corner allows for the retraction of adjacent panels using a simple ratchet. The shaft stripping corner
can be used in conjunction with Uni-Lite elements using the Uni-Lite Adaptor which will cover the gap between the
varied profile thicknesses. Post the retraction of the panels, the translation takes place in a simple, safe and quick
manner using Uni-Lite lifting hooks and a four-part lifting chain.

NOE is a versatile, robust and timber-faced panel system which provides a smooth concrete finish.
It is quick and easy to assemble, enabling minimal downtime on site. The basic panels incorporate the
strongbacks and walers into one timber faced panel. The versatile NOE system offers the following features:

- Minimal components required in creation of formwork gangform

- Quick and easy to assemble
- 21mm resin faced ply is fastened from the rear of the panel; avoiding concrete face defects
- The panels have cast iron integrated corner blocks; preventing damage to the corners and assisting
in positioning of panels
- Easy to fix push-pull stays, clip-on access brackets and multi-claw brackets to facilitate over-the-top
tying and fixing of stop-ends
- Toplock H panel connection clamp facilitates up to 150mm of timber strip patching
- Selection of internal corner panels, external corner angles and flexible corners for < or > 90-degree angles

The NOEtop range comes with a selection of internal corner panels, external corner angles and flexible corners
for less or more than 90º angles. High labour costs on construction sites increasingly require easier and faster
formwork systems. The number of components to be assembled and moved determines the shuttering turn
around times and therefore the cost of construction. NOEtop uses minimum components to create a formwork
gangform, therefore limiting downtime and avoiding the time consuming search for parts.

Versatile in use - the integrating bracing allows NOEtop to be used as beam formwork.

Robust - All panels have corner castings and uniform profile thickness.

Noetop - Ideal for residential buildings. The greatly reduced number of connectors and accessories results in
considerable savings in time and hire costs.

Ease of handling - Corner castings with integrated lever edge.

Freely selectable tie rod layout - Symmetrical or free choice of tie rod layout.

Interchangeable - With adjustable internal and external corners.

Three connections - Toplock V, Toplock H and Multi-Claw.

Secure Self-locking platform brackets attach to side-on and end-on panels.

It is an effective system that is economical and makes for optimum adaptability

in any construction project. The Uni-Climbing Roll Back Bracket is ideal for
use with both framed formwork and timber systems.

The formwork and climbing bracket are linked as a single unit that can be
crane-lifted simultaneously; reducing crane time to a minimum. With its
ease of operation and durable components, this climbing formwork system
supremely meets the demands of actual practice.

Uni-Span’s climbing system is used in applications where formwork is

shifted upwards in successive pouring lifts.

Examples of applications include high-rise residential and industrial structures,

bridge piers, silos and telecom towers.

FORM SUPPORT BRACKET

CLIMBING SYSTEM
Uni-Span’s gangform climbing system is crane
handled and fixed to the concrete with anchor
screws. Push-pull props are used for alignment
of the panel. The hanging bracket provides a
safe working platform for grouting and removal
of lower anchors.

Access brackets provide for a two board working

platform 456mm wide. The access bracket can
be attached to the form soldier at the required
position.

Plumbing Bracket
The plumbing bracket has two attachment points
1200mm apart to bolt the bracket vertically to
the form soldier. An adjustment screw which
extends 900mm from the form soldier is used
for vertical alignment.

UNI-CLIMBING ROLL BACK BRACKET

CLIMBING SYSTEM
This climbing system is crane handled and is
easily plumbed and aligned. A minimum amount
of crane time is required to simply lift the shutter
and hook it onto the climbing cone which was
cast into the concrete on the previous pour.

The scissor action allows the formwork to be

rolled back to enable the panels to be cleaned
and oiled in position without having to lower the
shutter to the ground or the floor below.

HYDRAULIC CLIMBING SYSTEM PLAN VIEW

An example of our Hydraulic Self-Climbing System in application with our

Uni-Lite formwork system.

Increased efficiency for highrise construction!

The hydraulic self-climbing system is a formwork
support structure that is used in the construction
of walls and other vertical structures. The system
is driven by mechanical and hydraulic mechanisms
and therefore requires no crane assistance. The
climbing process involves the successive elevation
of the mast and climbing bracket-formwork-set
alongside the wall surface.

It is a flexible and versatile system that can be

modified for various vertical formwork systems.
