Aluminum Formwork & Falsework Equipment Special Applications
Custom Engineered Formwork & Falsework
designed by SCI lead to the successful completion of this difficult sludge tank project.
Because of the steep
angle of tank bottom, special truss type formwork was used and was supported on SCI's 10K
(4,536 kg) Falsework System. Formwork & Falsework equipment were gang assembled at the
site and placed by means of a crane
View of the completed sludge tank. Note the very complex design of this structure's
conical shaped bottom.
A custom engineered and manufactured Formwork & Falsework system for this sludge
storage tank was very complicated because of the 45 degree sloping tank bottom slab.
Aluminum Joists - The primary element to the system,
available in 6-1/2" (165 mm) high and 5-1/2" (140 mm) high.
Aluminum Stringer - Most widely accepted worldwide,
7-1/2"(190 mm) high.
Aluminum Strongbacks - Three sizes to meet any need
or application 7" (178 mm), 9" (228 mm) and 12" (305 mm).
