Horizontal Formwork | Cuplock System Cuplock System The Most Economical Slab Formwork and Access Scaffold System Cuplock System is mainly used for falsework support structures. Its high leg load and wide range of components gives the system the capacity to tackle virtually any soffit support application with a cost-effective solution.

Cuplock System | Horizontal Formwork Cuplock System is a multi-purpose steel scaffold system suitable for providing general access and supporting vertical loads. The system’s key feature is its unique circular node point which allows up to 4 horizontals to be connected to a vertical in a single fastening action making it probably the fastest and safest system available. The comprehensive range of Cuplock System components allows it to be used for various construction applications. It can be used to create a wide range of support structures, access scaffolds, staircase towers, circular scaffolds,...

Horizontal Formwork | Cuplock System Steel Decking Decking Beam The primary beam that is used with the drop head to form the decking system. Made from sheeted components, and available in lengths of 1.2m, 1.8m and 2.5m. Infill Beam Decking Beam The infill beams span between the decking beams to support the plywood. Made from sheeted components and available in variable lengths from 0.50m upto 1.70m. Drophead Drophead offers the facility for early striking of the formwork. The wedge plate on the drophead can be conveniently struck so that the drophead remains in position to support the slab, but...

Horizontal Formwork | Cuplock System Aluminum Beams Decking The benefits of aluminum formwork products compared with their steel and timber equivalents have had a major impact on formwork practice. The light weight of aluminum beams which can weigh as little as one-third of their steel equivalent opens the way to greatly increased site acceptance and productivity. The corrosion resistance of aluminum ensures a long maintenance-free life, further extended by the fact that it cannot be easily cut up on site like timber beams. The two factors of productivity and long material life combine to explain...

Horizontal Formwork | Cuplock System Beam Bracket Beam bracket eliminates full height propping to beam formwork by locating on to slab support verticals. The beam bracket distributes the load throughout the surrounding scaffold structure. Normally, Beam Brackets are used to support internal down-stand beam. The use of beam bracket with jacks accepting beam spanning from one bracket to another can avoid the need of ground based support. Thus saving all the components that would normally be needed below to transfer the beams load to the ground. Beam Bracket The Max. SWL that can be supported by...

Horizontal Formwork | Cuplock System Early Striking with GS System Early striking is a technique whereby the formwork is removed 3 to 4 days after pouring a slab, but the supporting structure of scaffolding or props remains undisturbed until the concrete is strong enough to support its own weight over its full span. Concrete generally takes 28 days to attain its full constructional design strength. Most engineers will only permit the complete support to be removed after about 10 to 14 days, depending on the ambient temperature and cube strength tests. Drophead in Lower Position Tests and studies...
