Paschal has the angle

Formwork manufacturer Paschal says that it has further expanded the application range of its lightweight multi-waler by developing a hinge piece.

The multi-waler is compatible with all Paschal formwork systems for stiffening a bracing of panels, for filler pieces and for stop ends as well as a wall stop bar.

The multi-waler for stiffening horizontal and vertical panel joints was itself shown at the bauma trade fair in Munich in 2019. The handy multi-waler hinged part was added shortly afterwards.

The addition of a hinge allows practical connecting of element for both acute- and obtuse-angled concrete structures. Angled structures ranging from an acute 60° to an obtuse 150° angle can be tied. Panel connections mounted around corners can be simply, easily and rapidly stiffened, according to the company, based in Steinach, southern Germany.

Two multi-walers can be joined with a force-fitted connection via the hinged part with bolts and a security pin - stiffening panels around corners couldn't be easier, says Paschal.

The 1.4m-long multi-waler can be connected to the formwork panels using a LOGO clamping piece or, alternatively, using hook headed bolts and a plate with ball-and-socket joint or a waler support DW 15.

Paschal’s high-performance NeoR formwork is no lightweight solution

Because it combines the benefits of the company’s proven modular universal formwork and the LOGO.3 wall formwork system, NeoR can be used universally, making it ideal suited for construction of foundations, beams, columns, and walls.

The formwork panels of the NeoR lightweight formwork have a maximum weight of just 41.3kg on the element 900mm x 1500mm. It can easily be assembled and moved in twos and smaller panels solely on site by hand without a crane or other transport aids.

At the same time, the NeoR lightweight formwork boasts significantly higher fresh concrete pressure absorption of 50kN/m² - an improvement on the Modular system’s 30kN/m².

A further advantage of the new formwork system is the low overall height of only 750mm, which ensures particularly low storage and transport volumes.

NeoR can also be assembled in both upright and sideways direction so there is no need for a second system of different dimensions, making a client’s investment in formwork go further.

The optimum panel assortment ranges from formwork panel widths of 150-900mm in 150mm increments, which will be available in both 900mm and 1500mm heights. As a result, a floor height of up to 3m can be built with just one extension of the panels.

With NeoR, even large areas can be moved quickly and economically without any problems – this is where the large-size panel with 1800mm x 3000mm comes in useful. The range is supplemented by 50m and 60m filler posts for width adjustments and matching plastic filler pieces.
