  • Improved on-site safety with less propping, no stripping and minimal on-site cutting
  • Can be used as permanent formwork or used to reduce bottom reinforcing
  • Fast track construction, reduced time from floor to floor
  • Safe working platform with wide flat ribs
  • Soffit aesthetics with no or minimal deformations from prop marking
Note:
  • Design & detailing should be carried out by a qualified structural engineer

  • Maximum formwork spans are based on Ll/240 deflection limit and ratio of two adjacent spans equal 1:1.
  • Use LYSAGHT W-DEK software to get longer spans with Ll/130 deflection limit and wider supports.
  • 1kPa Live Load due to stacked materials is used.
