UNIVERSAL MODULAR SHUTTERING Russian patent published in 2000 - IPC

FIELD: construction engineering. SUBSTANCE: shuttering is intended for building monolithic reinforced concrete structures. Shuttering has scaffolding, struts, locks for connection of panels, modular symmetrical framed panels. Each panel is made of plywood encased in frame made of contour profile and fortified by lateral profile. Contour and lateral profiles are fabricated of high-strength pressed aluminium alloy. Profiles are made in the form of enclosed pipes of various cross-section. Contour and lateral profiles are of rectangular configuration in their cross-section. Smaller sides of rectangles are made thicker. Internal larger side of rectangle of contour profile has two taper-shaped recesses. Peaks of taper-shaped recesses by means of links are connected with U-shaped slot in opposite external side of rectangle which at point of connection with plywood panel and recess made in thicker side of rectangle is provided with apron having bent-up flap. Aforesaid embodiment of shuttering is characterized by increased rigidity of structure and better resistance to dynamic loads. In addition, prime cost of shuttering is reduced, versatility is enhanced together with easier application. EFFECT: higher efficiency. 3 dwg
