The versatile girder
|
The girder is a central component for slab and wall formwork systems and choosing the right one is crucial in achieving the highest possible level of cost-effectiveness. The decisive factors are the durability and handling costs – not the original investment.
Through the high load-bearing capacity and rigidity of the GT 24 compared to other 20-cm high formwork girders, fewer girders, steel walers or props are required for both wall and slab formwork.
Advantages
• Light and manageable for slabs
The use of the universal, rigid and durable GT 24 lattice formwork girder allows large spans which then reduces the number of components required for shuttering and striking.
• Strong enough for walls
Regardless whether it is industrial or housing construction, bridge abutments or retaining walls, any ground plan and all heights up to 18 m can be shuttered with one panel using the GT 24.
• Cost effective in custom formwork
Due to the higher load-bearing capacity and flexural strength of the GT 24, compared to other 20 cm high girders fewer components and support are required.
This means a reduction in labour costs with every use at any construction site!
• Other advantages
Long service life due to the robust design with 80 x 60 mm thick chords, patented girder nodes with mini-dovetail jointing, steel end caps and side-to-side steel rivets.
Constant dimensional stability throughout its entire service life.
High load-bearing capacity through its overall height of 24 cm.
Easy accessory connection because of the latticework construction
