General remarksElementary safety warnings

User target groups● This User Information booklet (Method Statement) is

aimed at everyone who will be working with the Doka product or system it describes. It contains informa-tion on the standard design for setting up this sys-tem, and on correct, compliant utilisation of the sys-tem.

● All persons working with the product described herein must be familiar with the contents of this man-ual and with all the safety instructions it contains.

● Persons who are incapable of reading and under-standing this booklet, or who can do so only with dif-ficulty, must be instructed and trained by the cus-tomer.

● The customer is to ensure that the information mate-rials provided by Doka (e.g. User Information book-lets, Instructions for Assembly and Use, Operating Instruction manuals, plans etc.) are available to all users, and that they have been made aware of them and have easy access to them at the usage location.

● In the relevant technical documentation and form-work utilisation plans, Doka shows the workplace safety precautions that are necessary in order to use the Doka products safely in the usage situations shown. In all cases, users are obliged to ensure compliance with national OH&S (occupational health and safety) rules throughout the entire project and to take appro-priate additional or alternative workplace safety pre-cautions where necessary.

Hazard assessment● The customer is responsible for drawing up, docu-

menting, implementing and continually updating a hazard assessment at every job-site. This document serves as the basis for the site-spe-cific hazard assessment, and for the instructions given to users on how to prepare and utilise the sys-tem. It does not substitute for these, however.

Remarks on this document● This User Information booklet can also be used as a

generic method statement or incorporated with a site-specific method statement.

● Many of the illustrations in this booklet show the situation during formwork assembly and are therefore not always complete from the safety point of view.

● Further safety instructions, especially warnings, will be found in the individual sections of this document!

Planning● Provide safe workplaces for those using the form-

work (e.g. for when it is being erected/dismantled, modified or repositioned etc). It must be possible to get to and from these workplaces via safe access routes!

● If you are considering any deviation from the details and instructions given in this booklet, or any application which goes beyond those described in the booklet, then revised static cal-culations must be produced for checking, as well as supplementary assembly instructions.

Rules applying during all phases of the assignment:● The customer must ensure that this product is

erected and dismantled, reset and generally used for its intended purpose under the direction and super-vision of suitably skilled persons with the authority to issue instructions. These persons' mental and physical capacity must not in any way be impaired by alcohol, medicines or drugs.

● Doka products are technical working appliances which are intended for industrial/commercial use only, always in accordance with the respective Doka User Information booklets or other technical docu-mentation authored by Doka.

● The stability of all components and units must be ensured during all phases of the construction work!

● The functional/technical instructions, safety warn-ings and loading data must all be strictly observed and complied with. Failure to do so can cause acci-dents and severe (even life-threatening) damage to health, as well as very great material damage.

● Fire-sources are not permitted anywhere near the formwork. Heating appliances are only allowed if properly and expertly used, and set up a safe dis-tance away from the formwork.

● The work must take account of the weather condi-tions (e.g. risk of slippage). In extreme weather, steps must be taken in good time to safeguard the equipment, and the immediate vicinity of the equip-ment, and to protect employees.

● All connections must be checked regularly to ensure that they still fit properly and are functioning cor-rectly. It is very important to check all screw-type connec-tions and wedge-clamped joins whenever the con-struction operations require (particularly after excep-tional events such as storms), and to tighten them if necessary.


5999751002 - 01/2010


Assembly● The equipment/system must be inspected by the

customer before use, to ensure that it is in suitable condition. Steps must be taken to rule out the use of any components that are damaged, deformed, or weakened due to wear, corrosion or rot.

● Combining our formwork systems with those of other manufacturers could be dangerous, risking damage to both health and property. If you intend to combine different systems, please contact Doka for advice first.

● The assembly work must be carried out by suitably qualified employees of the client's.

● It is not permitted to modify Doka products; any such modifications constitute a safety risk.

Erecting the formwork● Doka products and systems must be set up in such

a way that all loads acting upon them are safely transferred!

Pouring● Do not exceed the permitted fresh-concrete pres-

sures. Excessively high pouring rates lead to form-work overload, cause greater deflection and risk causing breakage.

Striking the formwork● Do not strike the formwork until the concrete has

reached sufficient strength and the person in charge has given the order for the formwork to be struck!

● When striking the formwork, never use the crane to break concrete cohesion. Use suitable tools such as timber wedges, special pry-bars or system features such as Framax stripping corners.

● When striking the formwork, do not endanger the stability of any part of the structure, or of any scaf-folding, platforms or formwork that is still in place!

Transporting, stacking and storing● Observe all regulations applying to the handling of

formwork and scaffolding. In addition, the Doka slinging means must be used - this is a mandatory requirement.

● Remove any loose parts or fix them in place so that they cannot be dislodged or fall free!

● All components must be stored safely, following all the special Doka instructions given in the relevant sections of this User Information booklet!

Regulations; industrial safety● Always observe all industrial safety regulations and

other safety rules applying to the application and uti-lisation of our products in the country and/or region in which you are operating.

Instruction as required by EN 13374:● If a person or object falls against, or into, the side-

guard system and/or any of its accessories, the side-guard component affected may only continue in use after it has been inspected and passed by an expert.

Maintenance● Only original Doka components may be used as

spare parts.

Eurocodes at DokaIn Europe, a uniform series of Standards known as Eurocodes (EC) was developed for the construction field by the end of 2007. These are intended to provide a uniform basis, valid throughout Europe, for product specifications, tenders and mathematical verification.The EC are the world's most highly developed Stand-ards in the construction field.In the Doka Group, the EC are to be used as standard from the end of 2008. They will thus supersede the DIN norms as the "Doka standard" for product design.

The widely used "Permissible stress design" (compar-ing the actual stresses with the permissible stresses) has been superseded by a new safety concept in the EC.The EC contrast the actions (loads) with the resistance (capacity). The previous safety factor in the permissible stresses is now divided into several partial factors. The safety level remains the same!

Comparison of the safety concepts (example)

Ed Design value of effect of actions (E ... effect; d ... design) Internal forces from action Fd (VEd, NEd, MEd)

Rd Design value of the resistance (R ... resistance; d ... design) Design capacity of cross-section (VRd, NRd, MRd)

Fd Design value of an actionSteel: Rd =

Rk Timber: Rd = kmod ·Rk

Fd = γF · Fk γM γM

(F ... force)Fk Characteristic value of an action

"actual load", service load (k ... characteristic) e.g. dead weight, live load, concrete pressure, wind

Rk Characteristic value of the resistance e.g. moment resistance to yield stress

γF Partial factor for actions (in terms of load; F ... force) e.g. for dead weight, live load, concrete pres-sure, wind Values from EN 12812

γM Partial factor for a material property (in terms of material; M...material) e.g. for steel or timber Values from EN 12812

kmod Modification factor (only for timber – to take account of the moisture and the duration of load action) e.g. for Doka beam H20 Values as given in EN 1995-1-1 and EN 13377

The "permissible values" communicated in Doka documents (e.g.: Qpermissible = 70 kN) do not correspond to the design values (e.g.: VRd = 105 kN)!➤ Avoid any confusion between the two!➤ Our documents will continue to state the per-

missible values. Allowance has been made for the following par-tial factors: γF = 1.5 γM, timber = 1.3 γM, steel = 1.1 kmod = 0.9In this way, all the design values needed in an EC design calculation can be ascertained from the permissible values.

System description

Automatic climbing formwork SKE - The crane-independent climbing formwork for structures of any shape and heightThe SKE system is used for raising:● large-area formwork elements● together with the climbing scaffold● in one single step● and without any crane assistanceby one casting section at a time.

Safety is always absolutely paramount here

The Doka automatic climbers are tested by independ-ent institutes, who also certify their high quality and safety.

Superlative product quality● Sturdy hot-dip galvanised components● Certified to ISO 9002

Maximum safety in all phases of the work● The climbing scaffold remains anchored to the con-

crete at all times.● The lifting mechanism is safely coupled to the

climbing profile in every situation.● Wide working platforms, enclosed by handrails on all

sides, enhance both safety and speed.

Hydromechanical drive provides optimum control and operational safety● Simultaneous controlling of:

- up to 30 automatic climbers- by remote-control- from anywhere on the platform

● Isolation valves on the hydraulic cylinders● Open ring main● Closed ring main● Hydraulic units equipped with all necessary control

features

High load-bearing capacityDoka offers 2 models of automatic climber:● SKE 50, with 5 tonnes' lifting capacity per automatic

climber, and● SKE 100, with 10 tonnes' lifting capacity per auto-

matic climberThis enables the formwork to be optimally dimensioned to suit each project, which in turn greatly enhances the economic efficiency.

Makes work independent of climatic influ-ences● Permits safe working at wind speeds of up to

70 km/h● Climbing can take place regardless of climatic influ-

ences. Working platforms can be weatherproofed.

The advantages of "section-at-a-time" climb-ing● Freely selectable workflow with no need for "round-

the-clock" working● The cycles are optimised for the construction task in

question, right from the planning stage.● Project-specific live load ratings● Rapid work rhythm

Set up, strip, climb- with no need for a crane- in any weather- independently of other forming operations such as

subsequently formed floor-slabs and walls- short repositioning time of 1-2 hours, depending

on the height of the casting section and the number of automatic climbers

Optimum adaptability to every layoutThe Doka automatic climber SKE is a single-unit lifting appliance. This results in:● optimum configurations, irrespective of the shape of

the layout● flexibility with regard to element widths● the most economical solution can be achieved for all

layouts of buildings, piers or shafts.

Doka planning serviceDoka will be pleased to plan an economical formwork solution for you, and partial pre-assembly of the form-work by the Doka Ready-to-Use Service will save both man-hours and space on the site.

Doka field serviceOur supervising foremen and engineers will advise you right the way through from when the formwork is assembled to when it is first used, up to and including the typical operating sequence, and give the forming crew introductory training on-site.

SKE 50 systemLoad capacity: 5 tonnes per bracketThe SKE 50 system is the ideal solution for the majority of climbing assignments. Because it is a single-unit climbing scaffold, the brackets and automatic climbers can be freely positioned.Casting-section heights: up to 5.50 mFormwork systems:● FF20 and Top 50 timber-beam formwork● Framax and Alu-Framax framed formwork

SKE 100 systemLoad capacity: 10 tonnes per bracketWhen exceptionally tough requirements are made of the automatic climbing technology, the SKE 100 sys-tem really comes into its own - with its high 10t load capacity and a platform system that allows work to be carried out simultaneously at several levels. The extremely strong brackets permit variable and – where needed – extra-wide cantilever centres.Casting-section heights: up to 5.50 mFormwork systems:● FF20 and Top 50 timber-beam formwork● Framax and Alu-Framax framed formwork

Hydraulic systemThe SKE automatic climbers are "jumped" with the aid of a hydraulic ring-main system. The ring-main system is based on a stationary hydraulic unit designed to pro-vide uniform, simultaneous drive for up to 30 automatic climbers. The number of automatic climbers that can be raised jointly in one climbing cycle must be appropriate for the structure and the construction workflow, and not so many that it is no longer possible to "keep track" of them all.● A high number of cylinders can be operated simulta-

neously● Open and closed ring-mains are possible

- Open circular main for a small number of auto-matic climbers

- Closed circular main for a large number of auto-matic climbers. The pressure build-up takes place from 2 sides.

● The hydraulic unit is equipped with cooling and heat-ing systems and a portable control panel

● Can be combined with a radio remote-control system

Anchoring on the structure

Positioning point and suspension pointComponents:

Both the positioning points and the suspension points are prepared using one single type of cone, the Univer-sal climbing cone (A) .The Cone screw B 7cm (C) also fulfils 2 functions:● On the positioning point - for fastening the Universal

climbing cone.● On the suspension point – as a safe means of sus-

pending the climbing unit.Preferably, stop-anchors (D) are used, or – depend-ing on the characteristics of the structure – pigtail anchors (E) .

Note:Where climbing formwork is used on both sides, the Stop-anchors must be located at an offset to one another, as necessitated by the thickness of the wall.

Anchoring systems

It is also possible to use a pigtail anchor for a position-ing point / suspension point in the floor-slab, instead of a stop-anchor.

d ... min. 16.0 cm a ... 74.5 cm (where concrete cover is 5.5 cm deep on the "cone" side and 5 cm deep on the "anchor-rod" side of the wall)

Preparing the positioning point and suspension point

➤ Do not place concrete directly above the pigtail or stop-anchors.

➤ Do not allow the vibrator to touch the pigtail or stop-anchors.

These measures prevent the anchors working loose during pouring and vibration.

➤ Every time the Universal climbing cones are used, fit them with new sealing sleeves first.

Minimum wall thicknessStop-anchor 15.0 40cm 48 cmStop-anchor 15.0 16cm 24 cmStop-anchor 15.0 11.5cm 19 cm

The short Stop-anchor 15.0 11.5cm has a con-siderably lower design capacity than the Stop-anchor 15.0 16cm.➤ For this reason, the short stop-anchor is only

allowed to be used on systems with low ten-sile loads at the anchoring location, such as on climbing systems inside shafts.

➤ If the geometry makes this impossible, a revised static calculation, with extra rein-forcement steel, must be produced.

➤ The short stop-anchor is thus only permitted for wall thicknesses < 24 cm. For wall thick-nesses ≥ 24 cm, the Stop-anchor 15.0 16cm (or larger) must be used.

WARNING➤ Always screw the pigtail or stop-anchor into

the Universal climbing cone until it fully engages (i.e. up to the depth mark). Not screwing the anchor sufficiently far into the cone may subsequently lead to reduced load-bearing capacity and to the failure of the suspension point – resulting in injury and damage.

➤ For the positioning point and suspension point, ONLY use Cone screws B 7 cm (head of screw is red, to indicate its high load-bear-ing capacity)!

WARNINGSensitive rod steel!➤ Never weld or heat tie-rods.➤ Tie rods that are damaged or have been

weakened by corrosion or wear must be withdrawn from use.

➤ Only use approved tie-rods.

Make marks on the top edge of the formwork so that you can easily see where the anchoring points are during pouring.

☞ ● The axis of the universal climbing cone must be at right-angles to the surface of the con-crete – maximum angle of deviation: 2°.

● Tolerance for locating the positioning points and suspension points: ±10 mm in the hori-zontal and the vertical.

Note:The pigtail anchor must be facing downwards

➤ Fasten a packing plate (G) (e.g. Dokaplex 15 mm) to the form-ply (position as per project plan).

➤ Drill a diam. 30 mm hole in the form-ply (position as shown in the project plan).

➤ Push the Cone screw B 7cm (C) through the form-ply, screw it into the Universal climbing cone (A) and tighten it firmly.

➤ Screw the Stop-anchor or Pigtail anchor (D) into the Universal climbing cone (A) , until it engages (up to the depth mark) (F) .

Form-ply protectionThe "Form-ply protector for cone 15.0" protects the form-ply from damage around the positioning-point. This is a particular advantage for formwork with high numbers of repeat uses.Possible thicknesses of form-ply: 18 - 27 mmIn order to fit the Form-ply protector, a 46 mm diam. hole must be drilled in the form-ply first.

If necessary, the Form-ply protector for cone 15.0 can be closed off with a Ribbed plug d38 (included with product).

Automatic climbing formwork SKE 50 with gallowsIn this variant of the automatic climbing formwork, the automatic climbers are only needed on one side of the wall. As in the standard variant, the formwork is perma-nently attached to the climbing scaffold and so can be plumbed and aligned very exactly. This means that the opposing formwork (suspended from the gallows on the other side) can easily be aligned with the fixed form-work.The wide platforms on top of the gallows construction greatly facilitate the preliminary reinforcement work, pouring, and equipment storage.

Variant 1Is mostly used for façades and walls that are poured ahead of (i.e. separately from) the floor slabs.

Platform scaffold SKE 100Example – pour-heights from 3.86 to 4.45 m

The Platform scaffold of the SKE 100 is the basis for a complete, self-contained platform system. The number of platform-levels varies from project to project.Even when the formwork is being removed and re-set, all the platform levels are always enclosed by all-round handrails. Forming and reinforcement-placing opera-tions can be carried out above one another, at the same time.The Platform scaffold can be freely positioned, irre-spective of how widely or closely the Climbing units are spaced. This enables it to be optimally adapted to suit the requirements of the structure.

Folding platformThe folding platform widens the platform-level, making reinforcement work much easier. To make it possible to manoeuvre the climbing profiles into place, and to transport materials downwards, the platform can simply be swung up out of the way.
