Single sided formwork system

Ultraframe

Ultraframe - innovative

• Ultraframe is a new innovative single sided formwork system from RMD Australia. It is much faster to erect than traditional methods

• The formwork used can be either panels, such as RMD’s Minima system or traditional formwork

• Ultraframes modular design enables formwork to be moved from one pour location to another without disassembly

Flexible in size and movement

• Ultraframe has three sizes of modular stacking frames each 2.3m high and a Super Slim Soldier top extension. The three frames are simply attached by pin connections

• Optional heavy duty wheels allow easy movement of Ultraframe away from the curing concrete wall so it can be moved to the next pour location without the need for a crane

• The inherent strength of the three frame design of Ultraframe enables it to reach a pour height of up to 9.6m, so it has the versatility to form walls of relatively low to high heights depending on your specific needs

• The Ultraframe system supports various types of formwork, which makes it flexible in regards to which formwork would work more cost effectively on the project, or provide the finish required

Ultraframe – The height and finish you want

Reduces labor and components needed

• Ultraframe eliminates the use of wall ties and the need for external raking props, therefore reducing equipment required and labour costs

• Ultraframe’s re-usable anchor ties reduce the cost of cast-in components, thereby reducing the cost of the project

• Its high load anchorage capacity of up to 500kN provides support for the formwork. The two inclined ties carry all loads due to the applied concrete pressure. This keeps the system securely in place

Ultraframe – many parts are re-usable

Superslim and tie

Inclined tie carries all loads due to concrete pressure.

Soldier components enable flexible height adjustment to the top section. This is a vital feature for formwork where there is a roof above..
