A panel formwork system consists of more than the panels themselves. Different panel formwork components work together to connect panels, form corners, support alignment and assist with handling on site.
For the overall system, see What Is a Panel Formwork System?.
What Does a Panel Lock Do?
A panel lock connects adjacent panels and helps the panel line work as one system. Correct component compatibility is important because lock geometry and connection dimensions can vary between system families.
What Is a Corner Connection?
Corner components help form internal or external changes in direction within a panel layout. The exact corner solution depends on the panel system and required geometry.
What Does a Brace Head Do?
A brace head forms the connection between a compatible brace and the panel. The brace arrangement supports panel positioning and vertical alignment before concrete placement.
What Are Lifting Accessories Used For?
Compatible lifting accessories can assist with crane handling of assembled panels within the system's intended handling method.
How Do the Components Work Together?
- Panel: Forms the main panel structure and concrete-facing surface.
- Lock: Connects adjacent panels.
- Corner components: Help create internal and external corners.
- Brace connections: Support positioning and alignment.
- Lifting accessories: Assist with handling where the system provides for crane lifting.
Why Does Compatibility Matter?
Accessories with similar names can have different dimensions and connection details across panel systems. Panel type, connection geometry and the existing component set should therefore be considered together when matching parts.
