IntroductionElementary safety warnings

User target groups● This User Information booklet (Method Statement) is

aimed at everyone who will be working with the Doka product or system it describes. It contains informa-tion on the standard design for setting up this sys-tem, and on correct, compliant utilisation of the sys-tem.

● All persons working with the product described herein must be familiar with the contents of this man-ual and with all the safety instructions it contains.

● Persons who are incapable of reading and under-standing this booklet, or who can do so only with dif-ficulty, must be instructed and trained by the cus-tomer.

● The customer is to ensure that the information mate-rials provided by Doka (e.g. User Information book-lets, Instructions for Assembly and Use, Operating Instruction manuals, plans etc.) are available to all users, and that they have been made aware of them and have easy access to them at the usage location.

● In the relevant technical documentation and form-work utilisation plans, Doka shows the workplace safety precautions that are necessary in order to use the Doka products safely in the usage situations shown. In all cases, users are obliged to ensure compliance with national OH&S (occupational health and safety) rules throughout the entire project and to take appro-priate additional or alternative workplace safety pre-cautions where necessary.

Hazard assessment● The customer is responsible for drawing up, docu-

menting, implementing and continually updating a hazard assessment at every job-site. This document serves as the basis for the site-spe-cific hazard assessment, and for the instructions given to users on how to prepare and utilise the sys-tem. It does not substitute for these, however.

Remarks on this document● This User Information booklet can also be used as a

generic method statement or incorporated with a site-specific method statement.

● Many of the illustrations in this booklet show the situation during formwork assembly and are therefore not always complete from the safety point of view.Any safety accessories not shown in these illustra-tions must still be used by the customer, in accord-ance with the applicable rules and regulations.

● Further safety instructions, especially warnings, will be found in the individual sections of this document!

Planning● Provide safe workplaces for those using the form-

work (e.g. for when it is being erected/dismantled, modified or repositioned etc). It must be possible to get to and from these workplaces via safe access routes!

● If you are considering any deviation from the details and instructions given in this booklet, or any application which goes beyond those described in the booklet, then revised static cal-culations must be produced for checking, as well as supplementary assembly instructions.

Rules applying during all phases of the assignment:● The customer must ensure that this product is

erected and dismantled, reset and generally used for its intended purpose under the direction and super-vision of suitably skilled persons with the authority to issue instructions. These persons' mental and physical capacity must not in any way be impaired by alcohol, medicines or drugs.

● Doka products are technical working appliances which are intended for industrial/commercial use only, always in accordance with the respective Doka User Information booklets or other technical docu-mentation authored by Doka.

● The stability of all components and units must be ensured during all phases of the construction work!

● The functional/technical instructions, safety warn-ings and loading data must all be strictly observed and complied with. Failure to do so can cause acci-dents and severe (even life-threatening) damage to health, as well as very great material damage.

● Fire-sources are not permitted anywhere near the formwork. Heating appliances are only allowed if properly and expertly used, and set up a safe dis-tance away from the formwork.

● The work must take account of the weather condi-tions (e.g. risk of slippage). In extreme weather, steps must be taken in good time to safeguard the equipment, and the immediate vicinity of the equip-ment, and to protect employees.

● All connections must be checked regularly to ensure that they still fit properly and are functioning cor-rectly. It is very important to check all screw-type connec-tions and wedge-clamped joins whenever the con-struction operations require (particularly after excep-tional events such as storms), and to tighten them if necessary.


5999723002 - 10/2011


Assembly● The equipment/system must be inspected by the

customer before use, to ensure that it is in suitable condition. Steps must be taken to rule out the use of any components that are damaged, deformed, or weakened due to wear, corrosion or rot.

● Combining our formwork systems with those of other manufacturers could be dangerous, risking damage to both health and property. If you intend to combine different systems, please contact Doka for advice first.

● The assembly work must be carried out by suitably qualified employees of the client's.

● It is not permitted to modify Doka products; any such modifications constitute a safety risk.

Erecting the formwork● Doka products and systems must be set up in such

a way that all loads acting upon them are safely transferred!

Pouring● Do not exceed the permitted fresh-concrete pres-

sures. Excessively high pouring rates lead to form-work overload, cause greater deflection and risk causing breakage.

Striking the formwork● Do not strike the formwork until the concrete has

reached sufficient strength and the person in charge has given the order for the formwork to be struck!

● When striking the formwork, never use the crane to break concrete cohesion. Use suitable tools such as timber wedges, special pry-bars or system features such as Framax stripping corners.

● When striking the formwork, do not endanger the stability of any part of the structure, or of any scaf-folding, platforms or formwork that is still in place!

Transporting, stacking and storing● Observe all regulations applying to the handling of

formwork and scaffolding. In addition, the Doka slinging means must be used - this is a mandatory requirement.

● Remove any loose parts or fix them in place so that they cannot be dislodged or fall free!

● All components must be stored safely, following all the special Doka instructions given in the relevant sections of this User Information booklet!

Regulations; industrial safety● Always observe all industrial safety regulations and

other safety rules applying to the application and uti-lisation of our products in the country and/or region in which you are operating.

Instruction as required by EN 13374:● If a person or object falls against, or into, the edge

protection system and/or any of its accessories, the edge protection component affected may only con-tinue in use after it has been inspected and passed by an expert.

Maintenance● Only original Doka components may be used as

spare parts. Repairs may only be carried out by the manufacturer or authorised facilities.

Eurocodes at DokaIn Europe, a uniform series of Standards known as Eurocodes (EC) was developed for the construction field by the end of 2007. These are intended to provide a uniform basis, valid throughout Europe, for product specifications, tenders and mathematical verification.The EC are the world's most highly developed Stand-ards in the construction field.In the Doka Group, the EC are to be used as standard from the end of 2008. They will thus supersede the DIN norms as the "Doka standard" for product design.

The widely used "Permissible stress design" (compar-ing the actual stresses with the permissible stresses) has been superseded by a new safety concept in the EC.The EC contrast the actions (loads) with the resistance (capacity). The previous safety factor in the permissible stresses is now divided into several partial factors. The safety level remains the same!

Comparison of the safety concepts (example)

Ed Design value of effect of actions (E ... effect; d ... design) Internal forces from action Fd (VEd, NEd, MEd)

Rd Design value of the resistance (R ... resistance; d ... design) Design capacity of cross-section (VRd, NRd, MRd)

Fd Design value of an actionSteel: Rd =

Rk Timber: Rd = kmod ·Rk

Fd = γF · Fk γM γM

(F ... force)Fk Characteristic value of an action

"actual load", service load (k ... characteristic) e.g. dead weight, live load, concrete pressure, wind

Rk Characteristic value of the resistance e.g. moment resistance to yield stress

γF Partial factor for actions (in terms of load; F ... force) e.g. for dead weight, live load, concrete pres-sure, wind Values from EN 12812

γM Partial factor for a material property (in terms of material; M...material) e.g. for steel or timber Values from EN 12812

kmod Modification factor (only for timber – to take account of the moisture and the duration of load action) e.g. for Doka beam H20 Values as given in EN 1995-1-1 and EN 13377

The "permissible values" communicated in Doka documents (e.g.: Qpermissible = 70 kN) do not correspond to the design values (e.g.: VRd = 105 kN)!➤ Avoid any confusion between the two!➤ Our documents will continue to state the per-

missible values. Allowance has been made for the following par-tial factors: γF = 1.5 γM, timber = 1.3 γM, steel = 1.1 kmod = 0.9In this way, all the design values needed in an EC design calculation can be ascertained from the permissible values.

Formwork planning with Tipos-Doka

Tipos-Doka helps you to form even more efficientlyTipos-Doka has been developed to assist you in planning the use of your Doka formwork. For wall formwork, floor formwork and platforms, it puts the same tools into your hands that we at Doka use ourselves for formwork planning.

Easy to use, fast and accurate resultsThe easy-to-use interface makes for very fast working. From when you input your layout (with the "Schal-Igel"® on-screen assistant), all the way through to when you manually put the finishing touches to the formwork solution the program gives you. All this saves time - yours.The program contains a large number of templates and wizards, so you can be sure of always getting the opti-mum technical and economical solution to your form-work task. This makes for greater operational reliability, and cuts costs.You can get to work right away with the piece-lists, plans, views, sections and perspective drawings that the program gives you. Operational reliability is also enhanced by the high level of detail of the plans.Among other things, Tipos-Doka plans the following with Bracket platforms M:● distribution of the bracket platforms● closures● corner solutions● safety railings● height-adjusted applications (raised/lowered)

Drawings of formwork and platforms really can be this detailed! Both for the layout and for spatial representations, Tipos-Doka sets an impressive new standard of visual presentation.

Always the right quantities of form-work and accessories

You can import the automatically generated piece-lists into many other programs for further processing.Formwork components and accessories that have to be organised at short notice, or replaced by improvisation, are the ones that cost the most. This is why Tipos-Doka offers complete piece-lists that leave no room for improvisation. Planning with Tipos-Doka eliminates costs before they have a chance to even arise. And your depot can make the best possible use of its stocks.

Separate single brackets

using the Bracket railing postHighly irregular façades require a great deal of flexibility from the platform system. Often, sites attempt to make the necessary adaptations by means of inherently risky improvisations. For these cases, too, Doka also offers a standardised system solution.Adding a Bracket railing post M to the Doka bracket platform M creates a single bracket that can be used to make a safe railing.

Platform boards as specified by German "ZH" employee safety rule n° 1/534 and/or ÖNORM B 4007

Distance between a single bracket and the suspension point of the next platform: max. 1.50 mOnce the floor-planks have been laid in place and the guard-rail boards have been fixed in the Bracket railing post M, the result is a safe and economical platform with exactly the right length for the usage situation in question.

Assembly instructions➤ Slot the Bracket railing post M onto the Platform

bracket M.

➤ Fixing the captive pin in place prevents accidental lift-out of the Bracket railing post M.

Corner solutionsThe system offers several different ways of dealing with corner zones.The result is safe corner transitions that meet all possi-ble requirements.All corner configurations are designed not to need any extra connections to the adjacent platforms.

Corner platform decking M as the outside corner

Platform decking can be placed onto the Corner plat-form decking M from both sides. This makes it easy to create closures in the corner zones.The whole unit can be lifted and repositioned in a single crane cycle. This makes it possible to arrange platform layouts very quickly, even in corner zones.Another advantage of this type of corner is that the full working width of 1.55 m is still available.For drops of up to 3.00 m.

To prevent the drop-in rod being encased in concrete when the hollow-wall element is filled, a Mounting sleeve M (expendable part) must be fitted over it.➤ Push on the Mounting sleeve M as far as it will go

This means that all the system components (corner transitions, closures etc.) are also available for use on construction sites where pre-cast hollow-wall elements are being used.

Resetting by crane➤ Use the right slinging points! (Always attach the

slings to the suspension rings on the inside of the Precast member head M)

On solid pre-cast membersThis is the standard mode of utilisation in normal con-crete and masonry construction.To cut costs when pre-cast members are to be used, the anchoring components for mounting the Suspen-sion shoes should be incorporated in the pre-cast members as part of their production process.This type of suspension point is especially appropriate for solid pre-cast members.The necessary load-bearing capacities of the embed-ded components must be discussed and agreed with the pre-cast part plant, in line with the intended pur-pose.
