In the first case we named our machines as Form Traveller FT, while in the
second case we named them as Movable Scaffolding Systems MSS.
Boxh solutions exist in the underslung and overhead versions. i.; working
under or above the decks.

Hydraulic Systems
Operations such as opening / launching of internal
formwork, lift and lower the MSS between the
concreting and launching positions, side shift and
longitudinal launching to the next span, are
preformed by different hydraulic systems powered
by electricity.

The cambering
adjustment
STRUKTURAS developed a
simple system of adjustable
mechanical screw jacks and
adjustable struts that serve
boxh do allow transverse
adjustment due to the deck
transverse slope and
cambering adjustment to
compensate for the elastic
deformation of the MSS due
to the span casting.

Suspended Formworks
The Overhead MSS is supported on top of columns and the formwork
panels are suspended by threaded bars of high strength.After
prestressing is installed the formwork panels are open using chain
hoists, winches or hydraulic cylinders, leaving the panels suspended
from the hangers.

Underslung selflaunching solution
The SMSS can relocate the supporting brackets from one column to
the next without the need for cranes being by this very fact to
operate on water or in situations of very high columns.

The weights above are per Form Traveller and must be multiplied by 2 for the pair.
The approximate weights listed above are based on deck standart cross sections, with up to 18m wide
and 5m segment lenght.
The wooden beams can be partially replaced by aluminiym beams.
The wooden weights also include the film faced plywood.

The use of the cross-support alows to build the pierhead segment as short as
possible, leading to savings on the formwork, since it need not be installed with big
brackets cantilevering from the columns external surface.

AN ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION
!
!
Special solutions:
The Underslung Form Traveller can be adapted to diferent types of bridges, such as arches and
stayed decks, leaving the free space to install the temporary or final stays, as to create the conditions
to make an easy launch backwards to the initial assembling position.
In cases where the rebar cage is pre-assembled, the STRUKTURAS Underslung Form Traveller is
the perfect choice. The external formwork of this type of Form Traveller is suspended below leaving
free space for instaling the rebar cage.
Pre-assembled rebar cage transport system. These systems can be tailor made to different types of
rebar cages.
