ORMA Modular Formwork

Vertical Formwork // Comments Off

Heavy duty and versatile vertical formwork.

The ORMA Modular Formwork suits any type of vertical structure, i.e. walls, columns, piers, abutments, foundations…in both building and civil engineering.

The ORMA Modular Formwork suits any type of vertical structure, i.e. walls, columns, piers, abutments, foundations…in both building and civil engineering. ORMA contributes effectively to minimise labour costs and assembling time, increasing performance considerably.

The system is comprised mainly of panels which, joined by clamps, make up formwork gangs. Moreover, ORMA has items that provide efficient and safe solutions for all types of geometries.

Main features:

System designed to withstand high concrete pressures. Certified by the German organization GSV according to established guidelines and requirements.

Maximum concrete pressure:
- 3.3 m range: 80 kN/m2
- 2.7 m range: 74 kN/m2

Maximum deflections:
60 kN/m2 (line 7, tab.3 DIN 18202)
80 kN/m2 (line 6, tab.3 DIN 18202)

- For pouring height = 3.3 m, only 2 ties are necessary.
- For pouring height > 3.3 m, 3 ties are necessary.

Wide range of panels at heights of 3.3 m; 2.7 m and 1.2 m, with 3.3 x 2.4 m (7.92 m2) being the largest.

: You can form gangs sized every 15 cm lengthwise and every 30 cm vertically by combining different panels

: Range of panels compatibles, with the option of placing them vertically or horizontally

: Connection Wall panel-Universal panel

: Robust panel made of a steel frame with reinforced corners.

: The plywood skin enables excellent concrete finishes.

: Highly versatile system due to lateral holes that allow quickly adapting to typical shapes, such as bulkheads, corners and columns, minimising infilling and compensations.

: Profile Adjustable clamp

: Panels are joined by clamps with a hammer strike. This allows forming large gangs.

: Item to fix panels, aligned at corners

: Safety elements are easily fastened to panels, thus always ensuring safe system use.

COLUMNS

There is a wide range of Column panels that provides solutions for columns from 30 x 30 cm to 120 x 120 cm with the option to adjust every 5 cm.
The range of heights for this type of panel is as follows: 2.7 m; 1.2 m; 0.6 m.
The range of Column panel widths follows: 0.72 m; 0.92 m and 1.32 m.

These panels withstand 80 kN/m2 of concrete pressure.
Panels are joined by means of Universal panel bolts and Plate washer nuts 15, using the 5 cm spaced tie holes spaced on the panels.
Panels are vertically joined using the Adjustable clamp, sometimes combined with Walers.
