Climbing formwork for wall
IIT Delhi
K N JHA Department of Civil Engineering
Formwork needs to be designed & built accurately so that the desired size,
shape position, correct location, quality and finish of acceptable quality of
the cast concrete are attained.

A typical flying formwork consists of sheathing member
Step-1
Forms are preassembled at ground level
Entire assembly is lifted and placed on existing floor or at
IIT Delhi
desired level by crane and hoist line.
Step-2
Form assembly Is then moved and placed into exact
position by movable dollies.

Flying Formwork Cycle
Step-3
Form assembly is adjusted to correct height and attached
firmly with other modules.
IIT Delhi
Reinforcement steel is fixed and electrical, mechanical and
plumbing work is done.
Step-4
Form assembly support systems are lowered to bring the
form down.
IIT Delhi
This process is done by the hydraulic jacks places under the
formwork.
Step-5
Then the form assembly is moved to the edge of the
support system by dollies.
IIT Delhi
Special attention on its movement has to be given.
Step-6
Form assembly tilts when about half of assembly is out of
the floor slab.
