The SCI
Aluminum Stringer 7.5" (190.5 mm) has become the most widely accepted Aluminum
Stringer in North America and abroad. Used as the primary member for hand set slab forming
systems, its high strength allows larger spacing between the vertical falsework equipment
(Frame shoring and/or steel post shores). The 4" wide (101.6 mm) base flange is a key
feature when erecting the Aluminum Stringers, as they will easily overlap or bypass each
other within the 8" (nominal) (203.2 mm) wide U-Heads, thus eliminating very costly
field adjustments caused by the interference of walls, beams or columns, etc. The SCI Aluminum Stringer may also be used
with SCI's Heavy (9"/228.6 mm) Aluminum Strongback or SCI's Super (12'/304.8 mm)
Aluminum Strongback, providing a high strength, lightweight aluminum gang forming system,
when high rate of concrete placement, for tie restrictions, cantilever wall forming, ect.
is required.
The wood nailer and bolt
slot allow the same benefits as the Aluminum Joist as you will see in the diagrams shown
below. If you have any questions as to which Stingers would best suit your particular
requirements, please contact us for more assistance.
