Paraslim Safetie | Cantilever Formwork

Home > Products > Formwork > Paraslim Safetie - Cantilever Formwork

Paraslim is a modular cantilever formwork system designed to facilitate the construction of edge projections, parapets and string courses of composite steel girder and precast concrete bridge decks. It may also be used to construct the capping beams to sheet piles. The system is based on a triangular frame consisting of a Superslim top chord with a tube and turnbuckle undercarriage. Brackets are laced together with tube fittings to produce a formwork module erected and dismantled by crane.

Faster

Pre-assembled on the ground and crane handled into position.

Safer

Anchorages connecting the Paraslim system to steel girders are fully tested and certified in factory conditions, ensuring safety in use.

Easier

All adjustments, fixings and stripping are carried out in a safe and secure environment without the need to go beneath the deck slab.

Applications

Paraslim is a flexible, modular cantilever formwork system combined with Safetie to create speed and efficiency for the construction of reinforced concrete parapets in composite bridges.

Key features

The Paraslim Safetie
Ties do not project above the top of the deck slab, reducing the risk of trips, punctures and impalements, improving safety on-site.
Prefabrication of frames & modules
Pre assembly of the equipment on the ground enhances safety, reduces erection times and speeds up both initial and repeat usage. Labour, plant and material costs along with construction programming are significantly reduced.
Paraslim Bracket
Innovative support solutions from the top flange are independent of girder depth, reducing deflection and grout loss to a minimum, thus standardising construction and reducing the cost of making good.
Supply Chain Collaboration
Altrad RMD Kwikform adds significant value to the supply chain by working as a team with the bridge fabricators, resulting in a seamless, timely and quality assured supply process.
