Automatic climbing formwork SKE plus
The crane-independent climbing formwork for structures of any shape and height
- as a highly efficient system-based 'construction kit', it can be adapted to any shape of layout and any structure height
- the freely plannable parallel climbing units also make the system suitable for varying wall inclinations and wall-returns
- the practical standard solutions provide ample workspace on shaft formwork units
- fast, weather-shielded working made possible by the large all-round workspace
- several parallel climbing units can be repositioned quickly at the same time, by radio remote-controlled 'pushbutton' climbing
- integrated platforms, stair towers and ladders provide complete safety during working operations and for up-and-down access
- saves on craneage, as payloads can also be raised along with the platforms when these are 'climbed'
- craneless climbing made possible at any time, by all-hydraulic repositioning right from the very first casting step
- optimised construction workflows achieved by flexible cycling of the units for repositioning

System
SKE50 plus
- for highrise cores and building facades
- with 5 t lifting capacity per parallel lifting unit
SKE100 plus
- for increased requirements such as greater impacts, extra working platforms or live loads
- with 10 t lifting capacity per parallel lifting unit
Cost-effective thanks to simple options for combining
SKE50 plus and SKE100 plus climbing units in all their design variants were ideally combined in this project. As a result the equipment was perfectly utilised and the project solution implemented cost-effectively.
Design variants of SKE plus
(1) with travelling unit – more efficient and comfortable installation of reinforcement thanks to wall formwork that can be rolled back by 1 m
(2) with rising working platforms – separation of forming and reinforcing operations by working on several levels at once leads to shorter cycle time
(3) with shaft system – a centrally positioned climbing drive allows for easy forming and stripping in case of small-celled shaft groups
(4) with mast system – mast with load-bearing capacity and suspended formwork make for generous working space, especially with shafts
(5) as platform system – for floor and wall cast in one pour in case of small-scale structures
Safety and logistics specifically adapted to the project
The following project requirements demanded special consideration in the Tour CMA project in Marseille:
- ingenious safety concept
- automatic climbing formwork for concrete placing booms
- an easy way of lifting in prefabricated reinforcing cages
- built-in construction site container
Safe choice, right system
Automatic climbing formwork SKE plus is definitely the 'safe' system choice. Its wide, fully enclosed working platforms, the well thought-out access paths and the gapless enclosure all make for a high level of safety at your site. Up to 20 automatic climbers can be raised from one casting section to the next by a single hydraulic unit.
