COLUMN FORMING
MAX-A-FORM
®
is a gang form system
that allows faster
placement, pours and resetting. The strong, all-steel design allows forms
to be set in larger units. Fewer crane picks are necessary and cycling
time is optimized on repetitious pouring applications. Gang size is
limited only by available crane capacity.
Forms are assembled easily using ¾" Speed Bolt and Nut. Panels are
punched with enlonged holes in both the top and side framing, to allow
easy alignment and quick assembly, regardless of panel orientation.
Panels are available in more than 100 sizes, from 2' wide by 1' long to
12' wide 20' long. The large number of filler choices allows more gang
and detail flexibility. Large, 200 square foot panels mean fewer pieces,
fewer panel joints and less labor to assemble.
Versatile tie systems are available with capacities and configurations to
maximize cost effectiveness for each application.
Taper Ties and She-Bolts are used with Plate Washers or Cast Bearing
Washers and nuts for efficient flat and battered wall applications.
External top and bottom ties are available in several lengths and
adjustment ranges to accommodate a wide range of wall thickness
and special applications.
