Slip form construction systems and methods for use
A slip form assembly includes a lifting pole extending in a longitudinal direction and an inner form slidably coupled to the lifting pole and extending in a lengthwise direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction between a first end and a second end. The first end is configured for end-to-end contact with an adjacent end of an adjacent inner form. An outer form is slidably coupled to the lifting pole opposite the inner form and defines a cavity for casting a portion of a wall therebetween. The outer form extends parallel to the inner form between a first end and a second end. The first end of the outer form is configured for end-to-end contact with an adjacent end of an adjacent outer form. The inner form and outer form are moveable along the lifting pole longitudinally relative to the respective ends of the adjacent inner form and outer form.

SLIP FORM CONSTRUCTION SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR USE
A slip form assembly and a slip form construction system are provided. The slip form construction system includes a first slip form assembly including a first lifting pole extending longitudinally, a first inner form slidably coupled to the first lifting pole, and a first outer form slidably coupled to the first lifting pole opposite the first inner form such that a first cavity for casting a first portion of a wall is defined therebetween. At least one panel is coupled to at least one of the first inner form and the first outer form such that the at least one panel forms at least a partial inner surface of at least one of the first inner form and the first outer form wherein concrete poured into the first cavity engages the panel and is prevented from engaging an inner surface of either the first inner or outer forms.

Hydraulic arrangement having linked hydraulic units, climbing formwork, and method for moving the climbing formwork using such a hydraulic arrangement
A hydraulic arrangement. The hydraulic arrangement has multiple hydraulic units, the control units of which are connected, in particular in series, via a data connection. The control units are preferably designed to control selectively only hydraulic cylinders directly associated with said units, or also indirectly control, via the data connection and the control unit of an additional hydraulic unit, the hydraulic cylinders associated with said additional hydraulic unit. A climbing formwork having at least one climbing unit, in particular multiple climbing units. The hydraulic units can be linked via the data connection such that synchronous lifting and/or lowering of all climbing units can be or is achieved. The hydraulic units are preferably connected in a master-slave arrangement or are preferably controlled in a master-slave mode. Also preferably, the hydraulic units are designed to switch from the master-slave mode to the stand-alone mode.
COMPENSATION OF FLOW VARIATIONS OF A PISTON PUMP AND CONSTANT-RATE AUTOMATED PLACEMENT OF CONCRETE
A device that compensates for abrupt variations in fluid flow rate for a pump line is described. One or more aspects pertain to a system to accomplish automated in-situ placement of a concrete wall or embankment, where a fluid concrete is pumped into place, consolidated, and screeded to a finished surface, with remotely controlled or automated equipment.

Supporting and guiding device for a climbing formwork beam and such beam
A supporting and guiding device for a climbing formwork beam and to such beam, comprising a supporting body to be coupled to a building structure, with which supporting means for the beam are associated, and at least one pair of guiding pins for the beam which can be activated by snap action transversely on opposite sides with respect to the beam and are adapted to be arranged in front of portions thereof.
Climbing device for lowering a climbing rail, and method for lowering a climbing rail
A method and a climbing device for lowering a climbing rail, i.e. for climbing downwards. The climbing rail, which is placed on a climbing head by means of an upper protrusion, is lowered in that a climbing cylinder is retracted. The climbing cylinder can be spaced from the climbing rail by completely retracting the climbing cylinder at the upper end by means of a distancing device prior to extending the climbing cylinder again. Thus, the climbing cylinder can be extended again without the climbing rail engaging or hooking below the climbing head at the now central protrusion in that the distancing device moves the climbing head around the central protrusion.
