A clamp for formwork for vertical castings, comprising a first body and a second body adapted to be slidingly coupled to each other, the first body comprising an elongated element which is extended predominantly along a first axis and has a first jaw at a first end, the second body comprising a substantially hollow base portion which can be associated slidingly with the elongated element and has a second jaw, locking means being provided in order to mutually lock the first and second bodies so as to mutually clamp two or more components between the first and second jaws.

A device for the positioning and retention of a tension member within a profile of a formwork panel. The device comprises a first tubular body adapted to be inserted within a through hole provided on the profile of the formwork panel, the first body having a wider abutment portion arranged at one of its ends, the wider portion being adapted to be in contact with the surface of the formwork panel that is directed toward the outside of the formwork.

A concrete formwork construction having a formwork element (1) whose frame (3) is produced from flat steel, whereas the struts (4) of the formwork element (1) are formed of sectional steel.

Disclosed herein is a concrete form apparatus that can be utilized to establish a rigid perimeter within which concrete can be poured for curing. A first component of the concrete form apparatus can be composed of a flat rigid material that is rectangular in shape and includes perforations along the lengthwise dimension of the material such that, when the material is folded along the perforations, an internal cavity is formed. The second component of the concrete form apparatus can be composed of a material having dimensions sized in accordance with the internal cavity of the folded material such that the first component can be folded along the perforations in the manner described above to encapsulate the second component within the internal cavity. Adhesive layers can be applied to prevent the concrete form apparatus from separating, and layers of the concrete form apparatus can be coated with a waterproofing substance.

The present invention relates to a formwork system (1) comprising a form lining (2) and at least one shaped element (10) which is attached to the rear side (4) of the form lining (2). The form lining (2) and the shaped element (10) have been produced by a 3D printing method. This is preferably carried out in a common 3D printing process, but the form lining (2) and the shaped element (10) can also be produced in separate 3D printing processes, with the shaped element (10) then being attached to the rear side (4) of the form lining (2). This is effected using at least one first fastening element (50). If, by contrast, the form lining (2) and the shaped element (10) have been produced in a common 3D printing process, the additional use of a first fastening element (50) for fastening the shaped element (10) to the form lining (2) is not required. According to the invention, the shaped element (10) and optionally the first fastening element (50) are attached to the rear side (4) of the form lining (2) in such a way that they do not touch or pierce the front side (3) of the form lining (2). The present invention also relates to the use of such a formwork system (1), for example in the production of structural elements made of concrete.

Apparatus is provided for vertically-extending construction column and horizontal construction beam assembly having beam-reference portion. Apparatus includes prop head assembly configured to be fixedly connected to vertically-extending construction column, and also configured to support horizontal construction beam assembly once the prop head assembly is fixedly connected to vertically-extending construction column. Prop head assembly includes first beam-locating feature and second beam-locating feature. First beam-locating feature configured to selectively receive, at least in part, the beam-reference portion. Second beam-locating feature configured to selectively receive, at least in part, the beam-reference portion. Second beam-locating feature is also configured to receive beam-reference portion once the beam-reference portion is inadvertently displaced away from first beam-locating feature and from vertically-extending construction column and toward second beam-locating feature.

A transmitter for predicting stress on a formwork element during and/or after pouring a building material, in particular concrete, into a space enclosed by a formwork including the formwork element, the formwork element comprising a form face and a support structure which is attached to the form face and supporting the form face, wherein the form face is separated from or integrated into the support structure, the system comprising data acquisition means, at least one sensor unit, a control unit and a transmission unit.

A metal concrete form panel having a face sheet secured to a perimeter flange that includes side rails and end rails. One or more tie ribs extend between the end rails. A bolt block is secured in each corner to the perimeter flange where the side rails meet the end rails. A bar is located spaced inside each side rail and extended between and secured to each of the pair of opposing bolt blocks of the associated end rail and also secured to each intervening tie rib and to the face sheet.
