Steel shoring tower Universal F

for heavy loadstubularadjustable

Overview
Supporting construction frames transfer concreting loads safely via diagonal anchors when through-anchoring of wall formwork is not possible.

Application / For
For single-sided walls and continuous pours up to 12.80 m, depending on configuration and stacking of attachable frames.

Key benefits

• Flexible adaptation – combinable attachable frames and the Variabel and Universal F variants enable continuous height adjustment and high utilisation of equipment; compatible with Doka wall formwork panels such as Framax Xlife.
• Time and cost savings – large repositionable units reduce crane usage; selected configurations allow craneless repositioning using rollers or wheeled travelling gear.
• Comprehensive workplace safety – integrated compatibility with ladder systems, bracket-based working platforms and a full range of safety accessories for pouring and intermediate platforms.

System / Design variants

• Supporting construction frame Variabel: for pour heights up to 4.00 m; assembled from standard steel walings and add-on components; easy to brace with scaffold tubes; hand-assembled and hand-movable; full range of safety accessories for pouring platforms.
• Supporting construction frame Universal F: for pour heights up to 12.80 m via modular stacking; flexible height adjustment; tall units can be wheeled for repositioning; vertical stacking via modular system; quick ground adaptation using spindles with articulated footplates; pre-mounted couplers for scaffold-tube bracing; craneless repositioning available with travelling gear.

Utilisation / Stacking & pour heights

• Variabel: assembled from standard steel walings and add-on components for heights up to 4.00 m.
• Universal F 4.50 m: pour heights up to 4.50 m.
• With one attachable frame F 1.50 m: pour heights up to 6.00 m.
• With attachable frames F 1.50 m + F 2.00 m: pour heights up to 8.10 m.
• For walls up to 10.40 m: Supporting construction frame F stacked on top of an attachable frame F 2.40 m.
• For walls up to 12.80 m: Supporting construction frame F stacked on top of two attachable frames F 2.40 m.

Custom applications
When positioned horizontally and anchored to the structure, supporting construction frames form heavy-duty platforms for high-elevation formwork tasks and can be configured with project-specific accessories.
