● Nailing holes in top flange

● 10 kNm bending capacity

The MINI MKII SOLDIERis a versatile

lightweight formwork beam that has been

designed to give a robust, easy-to-handle

solution to awkward formwork areas.

The section profile has been optimised,

giving an excellent balance of strengthand weight. The section is rolled from

special high tensile steel, allowing a

lightweight section to be utilised. The

beam has also been structurally

engineered to allow regular lightening

apertures, giving the benefit of reduced

weight, along with the opportunity to fix

accessories to the beam.

The MINI MKII SOLDIERis suitable as a

primary beam for small-to-medium wall

or base pours, a stop-end beam forgeneral wall formwork pours, or as a

lightweight support beam.

The heavy duty hot-dip galvanised finish

to the beam offers a superior robust steel

coating giving maximum longevity.

An added feature of the beam is the

nailing holes in the top flange, giving the

opportunity to fix directly to plywood or

timber. The beam can also be used

inverted, where the open flange allows

DU-AL beams to be clamped securely.

Aluminium w alings

The use of aluminium over timber has

great advantages. Aluminium is lighter

and stronger than timber and therefore

allows larger assemblies of formwork,

which in turn reduces the labour cost of

fixing and erecting.

SGB offers two types of DU-AL aluminium

waling beam, the standard S150 for

general use, and the T150, which is a

stronger section and ideal for use wherethe soldier centres need to be wider

apart.

LOGIK 60

WALL FORM W ORK CRAN E-HAN DLED

Description

The LOGIK 60 panel system for crane

handling produces 60 kN/ m2 concrete

pressure resistance from a robust panel.

The panel is surface-finished with a robust

hot-dip galvanising to give longevity and

lower maintenance, resulting in reduced

costs. Manufactured to tight tolerances,

panels are clamped rigidly together with

a unique Alignment, Locking and Levelling

ALL Clamp with a single hammer blow.

This action is so secure that form

assemblies can then be crane-handled

without additional structural members. A

large number of re-uses are then feasible

without the need for time-consuming

stripping down.

The panels feature a special rolled steel

profile 140 mm in depth that combines

with high quality 18 mm plywood. This is

supported at 300 mm centres and edge-

sealed in polyurethane. Multiple tie holes

allow for tie rods/ plates, all of which are

positioned for maximum panel stiffness

and strength.

Flexibility

The LOGIK 60 system features a fullrange of sizes that offer the flexibility to

cope with a wide variety of situations

encountered.

Single sided forms

SGB LOGIK 60 panels can also be used

to form single-sided wall forms in

conjunction with SGB MULTIFORM

components in an A-Frame configuration.

Column forms

Standard panel forms can be employed

for highly rigid, high-quality finishes in

column forms with a wide variety of

different column size options. Avoids the

need for time-consuming timber and

waling assemblies, by utilising the

strength of the novel column coupler

component.

Circular (polygona l) forms

Standard LOGIK panels can be used to

create impressive circular (polygonal)

structures in conjunction with the use of

their versatile panel clamps and tie plates.

LOGIK 50

WALL FORM W ORK MAN-HANDLED

Description

LOGIK 50 is a 50 kN/ m2 strength,

versatile panel system with unit weights of

approximately 35 kg/ m2. This makes it

suitable for projects requiring man-

handling capability where crane access is

restricted or impractical.

Simple in use, but smart in design

concept, the panels are secured in a

similar way to the crane-handled version.

A lightweight clamp is pre-set and

clamped single-handed in one simple

action.

It can be attached at any number of

horizontal or vertical positions.

Once fastened, a tight connection is

maintained to avoid grout loss. The holes

are positioned at the strongest part of the

panel.

Flexibility

The component solutions are fast, flexible

and offer a good standard of finish with

minimal grout loss, avoiding the need to

import timber elements requiring special

skills.

Single sided forms

SGB LOGIK 50 panels can also be used

to form single-sided wall forms inconjunction with SGB MULTIFORM

components in an A-Frame configuration.

Column forms

Standard panel forms can be employed

for highly rigid, high-quality finishes in

column forms with a need for time-

consuming timber and waling assemblies,

by utilising the strength of the novel

column coupler component.

Circular (polygona l) forms

Standard LOGIK panels can be used tocreate impressive circular structures in

conjunction with the use of their versatile

panel clamps and tie plates.

LOGIK 360

WALL FORM W ORK CIRCULAR

LOGIK 360

● Truly circular panel formwork system

● Fast and simple setting procedure.

Fully assembled panels.● Lightweight slim profile

● Compatible with LOGIK 60

LOGIK 360 is the first plywood-faced

truly circular panel formwork system. The

patented design of LOGIK 360

demonstrates SGB Formwork’s innovative

approach to circular formwork.

LOGIK 360 has very few components,

cutting the chances of site losses to an

absolute minimum. A LOGIK 360 wall is

constructed with a 1.24 m Inner Panel, a

1.25 m Outer Panel, LOGIK 60 Ties and

Tie Washers, and LOGIK 60 AdjustableClamps.

The new design has eliminated the

hundreds of bolts, turnbuckles, beams,

walers and multiple components

commonly used on older systems.

Crane handling and transport are also

much easier with LOGIK 360, because of

the low unit weight of approximately

58 kg/ m2, combined with the slim profile

of the panel, measuring just 140 mm

deep.

The standard SGB Formwork panels can

be used for circular walls down to 4 m

minimum radius. Further panels are

available to cope with smaller radii, down

to 2.5 m minimum radius.

LOGIK 360 is also fully compatible with

the LOGIK 60 panels, making transitions

from straight walls to circular walls simple

and easy.

MULTIFORM CIRCULAR

WALL FORM W ORK CIRCULAR

The System

MULTIFORM Circular Formwork System is

suitable for double-sided curved walls

with a minimum outer radius of 5 m.

It offers easy setting and adjustment of

curvature with wide spacing of ties @

1.25 m (1.88 m2 / tie).

Concrete pressures of up to 60 kN/ m2

can be accommodated.

Minimum adjustment infill solutions, eitherexternal or internal, give maximum

versatility to all stock.

General Guidelines

Plan detail

1) Set the panels to the correct radii by

turning the adjustable clamp.

2) Lift the panels into place.

3) Connect the adjoining panels with the

wedged articulated coupling.

4) Make finite adjustments with the

adjustable spindle and articulated

coupling.

Adjustment clamp details

1) The adjustable clamp slides onto the

MF1 Waler and is bolted onto the

MF3 beam.

2) Adjustment is then made by turning the

screw thread of the adjustable clamp.

Infill details

1) Simple infill details allow gaps to be

compensated for with a minimum of

adjustment.

2) This means standard size panels can

be fully utilised for all radii and wall

thicknesses.

A-Frames are used for the construction of

concrete walls cast against the face of

existing walls in basement construction or

similar.

MULTIFORM A-Frames are available in

2 m, 3 m, and 5 m modular sizes, fully

assembled for immediate use on site.

They are compatible with all LOGIK panel

formwork as well as traditional soldier

and beam formwork.

The frames are made up largely of bolted

connections, making repair and

maintenance simple and easy.

Accessories for the A-Frames such as

walkway brackets are fully compatible

with LOGIK panel formwork, making

good cross-utilisation of products.

The A-Frames contain a “ Sliding foot”

feature to enable the wall to be fully

tightened to the wall kicker.

The 2 m Mini A-Frame is ideal for the

construction of deep base pours where tie

deformation prevents the use of double-

sided concrete pours. The modular units

allow simple, fast, reliable installation. The

Mini A-Frame contains a unique frame-

setting feature, allowing the units to be

anchored and accurately aligned in just

two actions.

GASS

SLAB FORMW ORK ALUMINIUM SHORING

Developed from the extensive experience

gained by SGB working on many of the

largest and most demanding construction

projects worldwide, GASS has been

designed and manufactured to meet the

speed, safety and economic demands of

the modern construction industry.

GASS is safer, stronger and more

versatile than any previously available

system, yet it still offers competitive

economic advantages. The strength andversatility offered by the GASS system

bring the benefits of aluminium shoring to

a wider range of construction projects

and contractors, many of them producing

higher levels of productivity.

High productivity

● Lightweight aluminium components

enable greater volumes of falsework to

be assembled

Unique locking feature for LedgerFrames is hammer-fastened, and simple

to locate

● 140 kN heavy duty capacity reduces

number of components required

● Ledger Frames can be located at any

vertical position along the leg

Highly adaptable

● 8-way connection into the GASS leg

● GASS is commonly used in the

construction of:

RESERVOIRS – using GASS rolling

table forms

RESIDEN TIAL AN D COM M ERCIAL

CON CRETE FRAM ES – using GASS

flying tables and GASS backprops

IN DUSTRIAL STRUCTURES – using

fix and strike GASS tower structures for

heavily loaded slabs

GASS is safer

● Locking feature on frames gives visible

reassurance that it is secured

● Higher shear loading capacity of

frames

● Access platform options provide firm

working area

● Integral safe guardrail height with

working platform

● Head plates interlock to prevent rotation

GASS is better

GASS has been awarded five

international patents to protect its

innovative design, and in 1999 GASS

won the Construction Awards Research

and Development Award.

DIN approved

GASS has been officially checked and

approved for load rating by the

Government Structures Office in Germanyto code DIN 4421, which closely

resembles the forthcoming British

(European) Standard prEN12812.

CUPLOK SUPPORT

SLAB FORMW ORK STEEL SHORIN G

SGB CUPLOK was the first ever

galvanised, multi-purpose scaffold system

in the UK. It is a well proven heavy duty

support system which is relatively light

and easy to assemble and suitable for

falsework support or access, building and

civil engineering projects.

SGB’s experience of using CUPLOK on

projects all over the world enables us to

offer you absolute confidence when using

this system.

The principal feature of CUPLOK is the

unique node point - locking up to four

horizontals in one single action without

the use of nuts, bolts or wedges. The

locking device is formed by a fixed lower

cup, which is welded to the vertical at

0.5 m intervals, and a sliding upper cup.

The forged blade ends of the horizontals

are located in the lower cup. The upper

cup is moved down and rotated by

hammer blows to give a positive and rigidconnection.

Hot-dipped galvanising is the finest

practical coating that can be applied to a

scaffold system, providing a long working

life and better handling to the user as well

as improved appearance and durability.

Soffit support

The range of CUPLOK equipment gives

the system the capability to tackle virtually

any soffit support application with the

most cost-effective approach. We can

provide a large number of grid variations

to fit steel, aluminium or timber joists.

Complimenting CUPLOK is our DU-AL

Aluminium Beam System. DU-AL ’s high

strength and low weight result in

increased productivity.

The DU-AL system comprises a selection

of 3 beams in a variety of lengths. In each

case the beams are supported in

Forkheads and fastened by means of a

quick fixing clamp.

Benefits

The key advantages of CUPLOK over

traditional scaffolding are:

74 kN leg load● Unique node point: 4 connections in one

● Systemised quick erection bracing

● 20% lighter than traditional scaffolding

huge savings in craneage time.

The versatile MULTIFORM Climbing

Bracket allows a variety of secondary

platform beams to be used, up to a

maximum size of 225 mm, giving a stiff

reliable platform for any size span or

cantilever.

When the next anchor point has been

fixed, the whole unit is lifted up, giving a

safe area for reinforcement to be fixed.

The anchor point consists of a recoverable

anchor cone, with a nailing disc to assist

casting the cone into the wall pour.

The MULTIFORM Climbing Brackets come

with a range of trailing platforms for

access to the cast face for making good

and recovering anchor cones.

The internal platform beams can be

climbed either using the pivoting foot, or

an internal shoe bolted onto the wall. If

the pivoting foot is used, a special steel

mould is available for casting the correct

shaped bearing port into the wall.

Highriser

● Self-climbing formwork

● Independent of crane

● Steel-faced or ply-faced formwork

● Jumpform or Climbform

HIGHRISER is a self-climbing formwork

system for the construction of high-rise

concrete cores or bridge piers. The system

is able to operate totally independently of

a crane, after an initial set-up, andhydraulically climb up the structure.

The system is available in either

“Jumpform” or “Climbform”.

The Jumpform system climbs within a

confined core with a steel table

cantilevering out over the external walls to

support the external shutters and platform.

The Climbform system climbs up the

external face of the wall only.

The units are jacked up in a rack system

by a series of interconnecting hydraulic

 jacks. The bearing feet of the frames are

always maintained at a low enough

distance from the pour level, such that

concrete curing time is not a critical issue.

The basic climbing units can be used with

either steel-faced forms or ply-faced forms

to suit the project.

The design is versatile enough to cope

with any shape of structure, and changesin plan dimensions can also be designed

into the frame.

This innovative parapet system really has

been designed with the user in mind.

The attention to detail removes the need

for awkward timber packers, and allows

the user to simply set the positioning

 jacks.

The large handled tapered She Bolt allows

for simple and easy removal from the set

concrete. The Multiform C-hook also

completes the systemised approach,

enabling large units to be economically

crane lifted for erection and striking.

Web Support

SGB’s Web Support can also be used to

provide an economical method of

supporting in-situ bridge decks through

pre-loaded consumable polyester beam

hangers.

CUPLOK SUPPORT

BRIDGE CON STRUCTIO N BRIDGE DECK SUPPORT

● 74 kN leg load

● Unique node point: 4 connections in one

● Systemised quick-erection bracing

● 20% lighter than traditional scaffolding

The design of CUPLOK is ideal for bridge

support work since its strength and

versatility can produce great savings in

erection and supervision times on site. The

fastening of four components at once, on

one level, makes CUPLOK a highly

economical support medium.

Systemised bracing and the rocking

(sloping) components cater for falls in

both directions. SGB have a wide variety

of ledger sizes (from 0.6 m to 2.5 m) to

produce the most economical grid layout

for any thickness of slab.

The 74 kN leg loading capacity will

reduce the number of vertical or

horizontal supports required, and improve

productivity.

CUPLOK has a long history of successful

support to motorway and trunk road

bridges across the world.

GASS is made up from a unique Outer

Leg with 8 different locations for

connecting the bracing frames.

The strong Inner Leg, with a massive

1300 mm of adjustment, gives the system

superior flexibility in overcoming different

ground terrains and obstacles.

The Ledger Frames are locked into the

outer legs by a fast and simple-to-use

wedge action. The stiff Ledger Frames

eliminate the need for any further bracing

members, making GASS one of the fastest

shoring systems to assemble.

DIN approved

GASS has been officially checked and

approved for load rating by the

Government Structures Office in Germany

to code DIN 4421, which closely

resembles the forthcoming British

(European) Standard prEN12812.

Full second order theory datasheet rules

apply, giving simple compliance to

prEN12812 class B1 structures without a

15% load penalty.

For this purpose a Multiway Connector

and special braces have been developed.The Multiway Connector is a special node

point in the frame structure, on to which a

maximum of 8 Soldiers can be connected.

A special push/ pull bracket has been

developed to enable intermediate bracing

with Soldiers to be used at any arbitrary

point on the Soldier.

The MKII SOLDIER, when used as a

compression member, has different

loading characteristics about its two main

axes of inertia due to its asymmetricshape. The arrangement of the shore

when erected may also dictate the method

of bracing to obtain the required capacity.

Special details have been developed for

use in facade-retention applications for

connecting the frame to the facade.

Heavy leg loads of up to 500 kN can be

supported by the Multiway Connector by

doubling up the vertical Soldier.

A special wedge jack component isavailable if the structure has to be struck

under load. These jacks have a limited

height adjustment range of 100 mm.

● Triple wire rigid-mesh edge protection

● Highly durable galvanised and powder-

coated finish

● Fast and simple installation

● Patented range of fixing components

SGB EXTRAGUARD is systemised metal

panel edge protection offering a higher

standard of safety to reduce the risk of

falls from height. EXTRAGUARD is a

highly visible full-mesh panel with a

galvanised and powder-coated finish.

EXTRAGUARD comprises a combination

of patented clamping devices, posts and

full-mesh panels with a unique triple wire

construction. This gives the mesh an

unrivalled rigidity and also protects the

edges of the mesh from damage.

N ew Safety Standard

The new prEN 13374 ‘Temporary Edge

Protection Systems’ is the very first

British/ European Standard to be wri tten

solely for edge protection. The new

requirements fundamentally change the

approach to edge protection. In

particular, the deflection requirements

apply to the whole mesh panel area, not

 just to the top rail. The rigid triple wire

EXTRAGUARD mesh panel ful ly meets

these requirements.
