2. Formwork - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formwork

   All support systems have to be height adjustable to allow the formwork to be placed at the correct height and to be removed after the concrete is cured. Normally adjustable metal props similar to (or the same as) those used by beam slab formwork are used to support these systems.

3. Climbing formwork - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climbing_formwork

   Climbing formwork (crane-climbing): in this type of climbing formwork, the formwork around the structure is displaced upwards with the help of one or more cranes [4] once the hardening of the concrete has proceeded far enough. This may entail lifting the whole section, or be achieved segmentally.

   It expanded rapidly in formwork and scaffolding under GKN ownership in the end of the 1980s. [2] In June 2000, GKN Kwikform merged with RMD (Rapid Metal Developments, established in 1948), the formwork and scaffolding unit of RM Douglas (part of Tilbury Douglas), to form RMD Kwikform. [3] [1] Tilbury Douglas renamed itself Interserve in 2001. [4]

   The total height of the structure is generally between 1.5 a and 2.5 a. [7] The arches are semicircular, and their thickness T depends both on the span a of the arches and on the height H of the structure: [7] If H = 2.5 a, T = 0.1 a + 0.04H If H < 2.5 a, T = 0.125 a + 0.04H

7. Scaffolding - Wikipedia
