Elementary safety warnings

User target groups● This User Information booklet (Method Statement) is

aimed at everyone who will be working with the Doka product or system it describes. It contains informa-tion on how to set up this system, and on correct, compliant utilisation of the system.

● All persons working with the product described herein must be familiar with the contents of this man-ual and with all the safety instructions it contains.

● Persons who are incapable of reading and under-standing this booklet, or who can do so only with dif-ficulty, must be instructed and trained by the cus-tomer.

● The customer is to ensure that the information mate-rials provided by Doka (e.g. User Information book-lets, Instructions for Assembly and Use, Operating Instruction manuals, plans etc.) are available to all users, and that they have been made aware of them and have easy access to them at the usage location.

Remarks on this document● This User Information booklet can also be used as a

generic method statement or incorporated with a site-specific method statement.

● Many of the illustrations in this booklet show the situation during formwork assembly and are therefore not always complete from the safety point of view.

● Further safety instructions, especially warnings, will be found in the individual sections of this document!

Planning● Provide safe workplaces for those using the form-

work (e.g. for when it is being erected/dismantled, modified or repositioned etc). It must be possible to get to and from these workplaces via safe access routes!

● If you are considering any deviation from the details and instructions given in this booklet, or any application which goes beyond those described in the booklet, then revised static cal-culations must be produced for checking, as well as supplementary assembly instructions.

Rules applying during all phases of the assignment:● The customer must ensure that this product is

erected and dismantled, reset and generally used for its intended purpose under the direction and super-vision of suitably skilled persons with the authority to issue instructions.

● Doka products are ONLY to be used in accordance with the Doka User Information booklets or other technical documentation provided by Doka.

● The stability of all components and units must be ensured during all phases of the construction work!

● The functional/technical instructions, safety warn-ings and loading data must all be strictly observed and complied with. Failure to do so can cause acci-dents and severe (even life-threatening) damage to health, as well as very great material damage.

● Fire-sources are not permitted anywhere near the formwork. Heating appliances are only allowed if properly and expertly used, and set up a safe dis-tance away from the formwork.

● The work must take account of the weather condi-tions (e.g. risk of slippage). In extreme weather, steps must be taken in good time to safeguard the equipment, and the immediate vicinity of the equip-ment, and to protect employees.

● All connections must be checked regularly to ensure that they still fit properly and are functioning cor-rectly. It is very important to check all screw-type connec-tions and wedge-clamped joins whenever the con-struction operations require (particularly after excep-tional events such as storms), and to tighten them if necessary.

Assembly● The equipment/system must be inspected by the

customer before use, to ensure that it is in suitable condition. Steps must be taken to rule out the use of any components that are damaged, deformed, or weakened due to wear, corrosion or rot.

● Combining our formwork systems with those of other manufacturers could be dangerous, risking damage to both health and property. If you intend to combine different systems, please contact Doka for advice first.

● The assembly work must be carried out by suitably qualified employees of the client's.

Erecting the formwork● Doka products and systems must be set up in such

a way that all loads acting upon them are safely transferred!

Pouring● Do not exceed the permitted fresh-concrete pres-

sures. Excessively high pouring rates lead to form-work overload, cause greater deflection and risk causing breakage.

Striking the formwork● Do not strike the formwork until the concrete has

reached sufficient strength and the person in charge has given the order for the formwork to be struck!

● When striking the formwork, never use the crane to break concrete cohesion. Use suitable tools such as timber wedges, special pry-bars or system features such as Framax stripping corners.

● When striking the formwork, do not endanger the stability of any part of the structure, or of any scaf-folding, platforms or formwork that is still in place!

Transporting, stacking and storing● Observe all regulations applying to the handling of

formwork and scaffolding. In addition, the Doka slinging means must be used - this is a mandatory requirement.

● Remove any loose parts or fix them in place so that they cannot be dislodged or fall free!

● All components must be stored safely, following all the special Doka instructions given in the relevant sections of this User Information booklet!

Regulations; industrial safety● Always observe all industrial safety regulations and

other safety rules applying to the application and uti-lisation of our products in the country and/or region in which you are operating.

Instruction as required by EN 13374:● If a person or object falls against, or into, the side-

guard system and/or any of its accessories, the side-guard component affected may only continue in use after it has been inspected and passed by an expert.

Maintenance● Only original Doka components may be used as

spare parts.

Eurocodes at DokaIn Europe, a uniform series of Standards known as Eurocodes (EC) was developed for the construction field by the end of 2007. These are intended to provide a uniform basis, valid throughout Europe, for product specifications, tenders and mathematical verification.The EC are the world's most highly developed Stand-ards in the construction field.In the Doka Group, the EC are to be used as standard from the end of 2008. They will thus supersede the DIN norms as the "Doka standard" for product design.

The widely used "Permissible stress design" (compar-ing the actual stresses with the permissible stresses) has been superseded by a new safety concept in the EC.The EC contrast the actions (loads) with the resistance (capacity). The previous safety factor in the permissible stresses is now divided into several partial factors. The safety level remains the same!

Comparison of the safety concepts (example)

Ed Design value of effect of actions (E ... effect; d ... design) Internal forces from action Fd (VEd, NEd, MEd)

Rd Design value of the resistance (R ... resistance; d ... design) Design capacity of cross-section (VRd, NRd, MRd)

Fd Design value of an actionSteel: Rd =

Rk Timber: Rd = kmod ·Rk

Fd = γF · Fk γM γM

(F ... force)Fk Characteristic value of an action

"actual load", service load (k ... characteristic) e.g. dead weight, live load, concrete pressure, wind

Rk Characteristic value of the resistance e.g. moment resistance to yield stress

γF Partial factor for actions (in terms of load; F ... force) e.g. for dead weight, live load, concrete pres-sure, wind Values from EN 12812

γM Partial factor for a material property (in terms of material; M...material) e.g. for steel or timber Values from EN 12812

kmod Modification factor (only for timber – to take account of the moisture and the duration of load action) e.g. for Doka beam H20 Values as given in EN 1995-1-1 and EN 13377

The "permissible values" communicated in Doka documents (e.g.: Qpermissible = 70 kN) do not correspond to the design values (e.g.: VRd = 105 kN)!➤ Avoid any confusion between the two!➤ Our documents will continue to state the per-

missible values. Allowance has been made for the following par-tial factors: γF = 1.5 γM, timber = 1.3 γM, steel = 1.1 kmod = 0.9In this way, all the design values needed in an EC design calculation can be ascertained from the permissible values.

Product descriptionDokaset is the ideal formwork for meeting the demands made in the building construction field.The very high load-bearing capacity and long lifespan of Dokaset make it an economical solution for all wall-forming tasks.

Among the many advantages of Dokaset:● small numbers of form-ties, as only 2 ties are

needed per 2.70 m width, saving both materials and manhours

● up to a formwork height of 3.37 m, only 1 form-tie in the concrete

● formwork can be tied working from one side only – easy and time-saving

● much higher number of form-ply re-use cycles than with conventional plywood sheets, thanks to the use of the long-lived Xlife sheet

● All the main jobs on the formwork can be carried out from the ground, for example:- attaching the connecting devices- tying- attaching/detaching the formwork to/from the

crane● high standard of safety

Permitted fresh-concrete pressure: 80 kN/m2

Erecting the formwork➤ Attach the lifting chain to the Dokaset-2-part chain

1.50m.➤ Pick up the element by crane.➤ Spray the ply with release agent (see "Cleaning and

care").➤ Fly the element to its new location.

➤ Fix the panel struts firmly to the ground (see "Plumb-ing accessories").

The element is now stable and can be plumbed and aligned exactly, with no need for the crane.

➤ Detach the element from the crane.➤ Continue lining up further gang-forms in this way,

and link them together (see "Gang-forms").

Set up the side of the formwork with the platformOnce the reinforcement has been placed, the form-work can be closed.➤ Unfold the rear railings, side railings and platform.

See also "Platform system".

Ladder system➤ Attach the ladder in the desired position.

See also "Ladder system".

CAUTIONNever use a sledge-hammer to plumb and align the gang-forms!This would damage the profiles of the gangs.➤ Use only proper plumbing tools (e.g. a spe-

cial pry-bar) that cannot cause any damage.➤ Apply plumbing tools to the bottom angle

only.

Pouring

➤ Pour the concrete.➤ Make only moderate use of vibrators, carefully co-

ordinating the times and locations of vibrator use.

Striking

➤ Take out and "park" the form-ties.➤ Undo the connectors to the adjacent elements.➤ Remove any loose items from the formwork and plat-

forms, secure them or put them into the stand-by position.

➤ Attach the panel to the crane.➤ Undo the ground anchors of the panel struts.

➤ Lift the gang-form away and to its next location.

If the gang-form is "parked" prior to its next use, it must have sufficient stability (see "Plumbing acces-sories").

➤ Clean residual concrete off the form-ply (see "Clean-ing and care").

☞ ➤ Permitted fresh-concrete pressure: 80 kN/m2

➤ See also "Concrete pressure on perpendicu-lar formwork to DIN 18218" in the Doka Cal-culation Guide.

➤ Concrete compaction by vibration must com-ply with DIN 4235 Part 2.

98004-206-01

☞ ➤ Observe the stipulated striking times.

WARNINGThe formwork tends to adhere to the concrete. When stripping the formwork, do not try to break concrete cohesion using the crane!Risk of crane overload.➤ Use suitable tools such as timber wedges or

a special pry-bar to detach the formwork from the concrete.

Types of panel:● Dokaset panel 2.70x2.70m with platform● Dokaset panel 2.70x2.70m● Dokaset panel 1.35x2.70m with platform● Dokaset panel 1.35x2.70m

High load-bearing capacity

● Full hydrostatic fresh-concrete pressure up to a height of 2.77 m, with no limitation on the pouring rate

● Low deflection

Clean concrete surfaces with the innovative Xlife sheetThe Xlife sheet consists of a combination of a tradi-tional plywood core and a novel and innovative plastic coating.This combination of materials ensures high numbers of repeat uses, with superb concrete results every time, and reduces the proneness to damage.● High quality concrete finish● Less touching-up needed● Less cleaning work - the Xlife sheet can also be

cleaned using a high-pressure spray cleaner● No breaking away of plywood chips, and less water

is absorbed through nail-holes● Because the Xlife sheet is screwed on from the rear,

this leaves no screw imprints on the concrete

Dimensionally stable, galvanised steel frame

a ... 123 mm

● Dimensionally stable frame profiles● Strong cross-profiles● Edges are easy to clean - so panels always abut

tightly● All-round hardware slot for fastening the inter-panel

connectors at any point required● Hot-dip galvanised for long life● Edges of formwork sheet are protected by frame pro-

file● Cross boreholes for corner configurations and stop-

end formworks

Tying across the top of the Dokaset panelOn a formwork height of 277 cm, the Dokaset head anchor 12-36cm is used as a pressure anchor. It is placed across the top of the panel.● for wall thicknessess from 12 to 36 cm● firmly holds the two sides of the formwork the

required distance apartPossible mounting positions:● On the opposing formwork – bolted in place on every

U240 waling together with the Dokaset railing holder.● On the platform side - bolted in place in every U240

waling.

How to use the Dokaset head anchor 12-36cm:➤ Bolt the Dokaset head anchor into the Dokaset wal-

ing.➤ Telescope the Dokaset head anchor to the desired

length "a" (= wall thickness) and fix it in the relevant hole with a bolt and spring cotter.

Closing off the form-tie point

Dokaset closure cone 20cm

● fire-resistant● sound-insulating

➤ As soon as the formwork has been removed, press a Dokaset closure cone into the opening.The residual moisture in the concrete makes the cone sit firmly in place, so it is not necessary to glue it in.

➤ On walls that are less than 20 cm thick, simply knock off the projecting part of the cone with a hammer.

➤ On walls that are more than 20 cm thick, fill in the rest of the form-tie point with mortar mixture.

Dokaset fibre-concrete cone 30cm

● water-impermeable● fire-resistant● sound-insulating● gas-impermeable● radiation-proof

We recommend the following materials for gluing in the plugs:● Commercially available cement mortar, e.g. repair

and renovation mortar, watertight exterior grouting compound etc.Pay attention to the colour of the concrete here!

● Tile bonding cement (is mostly dark) in cases where the colour of the concrete is unimportant.

➤ Cut the Dokaset fibre-concrete cone 30cm to the length needed for the thickness of the wall.

➤ Evenly distribute the mortar mixture in the conical opening and then slowly press the fibre-concrete cone into the opening while gently turning it. (Using

a piece of wood makes it easier to fit the plug on the right plane).

● water-impermeable● fire-resistant

➤ Evenly distribute the mortar mixture in the conical opening and then slowly press the fibre-concrete plug into the opening while gently turning it. (Using a piece of wood makes it easier to fit the plug on the right plane).

➤ Fit a fibre concrete plug into the opposite side of the wall.

Opposing guard-railsDokaset railing holders and Handrail posts 1.00m are used for setting up safe opposing guard-rails.

Note:When choosing which Dokaset railing holder to use, you must comply with national safety regulations regarding the maximum angle allowed for the railings.

There are two possible mounting situations for the Dokaset railing holder, depending on the mounting position of the Dokaset head anchor.

Variant 1 - Head anchor on the opposing formwork➤ Jointly bolt the Dokaset railing holder and head

anchor into the hole in the waling, and secure the bolts.

Variant 2 - Head anchor on the plat-form side➤ Bolt the Dokaset railing holder directly into the hole

in the waling, and secure the bolts.

Cleaning and care of your equipmentThe special coating on the Xlife sheet greatly reduces the amount of cleaning that is needed.

CleaningImmediately after pouring➤ Remove any blobs of concrete from the back-face of

the formwork, using water (without any added sand).Immediately after striking the formwork➤ Clean the formwork with a high-pressure spray

cleaner and a scraper.

Cleaning equipment

High-pressure spray cleanerThe special coating of the Xlife sheet also makes it pos-sible for the sheet to be cleaned with a high-pressure spray cleaner.

Observe the following points:● Appliance pressure rating: 200 to max. 300 bar● Keep the water-jet the correct distance from the

formwork, and move it at the right speed:- The higher the pressure, the further away from the

formwork you must keep the jet and the faster you must move it across the surface.

● Make only moderate use of the jet around the sili-cone sealing strip:- If the pressure is too high, this will damage the sil-

icone sealing strip.- Do not aim the jet at one place for too long.

Concrete scraperFor removing any concrete remnants, we recommend using a Double scraper Xlife and a spatula.

Functional description:

Note:Do not use any pointed or sharp objects, wire brushes, rotating grinding disks or pan scourers.

Release agentsBefore every pour➤ Apply release agent to the formwork sheet and the

end faces extremely thinly, evenly and in a contin-uous layer (make sure there are no traces of release-agent running down the formwork sheet)! Applying too much release agent will spoil the con-crete finish.

A Blade for dealing with heavy soilingB Blade for dealing with slight soiling

To determine the right dosage and to make sure that you are using the agent correctly, test it on less important parts of the structure first.

Formwork planning with Tipos

Tipos-Doka helps you to form even more efficientlyTipos has been developed to assist you in planning the use of your Doka formwork. For wall formwork, floor formwork and platforms, it puts the same tools into your hands that we at Doka use ourselves for formwork planning.

Easy to use, fast and accurate resultsThe easy-to-use interface makes for very fast working. From when you input your layout (with the "Schal-Igel"® on-screen assistant), all the way through to when you manually put the finishing touches to the formwork solution the program gives you. All this saves time - yours.The program contains a large number of templates from formwork practice, so you can be sure of always getting the optimum technical and economical solution to your formwork task. This makes for greater opera-tional reliability, and cuts costs.You can get to work right away with the piece-lists, plans, views, sections and perspective drawings that the program gives you. Operational reliability is also enhanced by the high level of detail of the plans.Among other things, Tipos-Doka plans the following with Dokaset:● Distribution of the framed formwork panels● Any vertically stacked configurations that are

needed● Closures and accessories● Pouring platforms, safety railings etc.

Drawings of formwork and platforms really can be this detailed! Both for the layout and for spatial representations, Tipos-Doka sets an impressive new standard of visual presentation.

Always the right quantities of form-work and accessories

You can import the automatically generated piece-lists into many other programs for further processing.Formwork components and accessories that have to be organised at short notice, or replaced by improvisation, are the ones that cost the most. This is why Tipos-Doka offers complete piece-lists that leave no room for improvisation. Planning with Tipos-Doka eliminates costs before they have a chance to even arise. And your depot can make the best possible use of its stocks.
