What is Formwork edge protection? It is the installation of edge protection products on the primary or secondary beams of formwork , thus protecting workers or objects from falling from heights during the concreting slab process.
The primary and secondary beams may are either the H20 timber beam or the aluminium Beam, APAC has developed both fixing components for both two beams, totally meet your different edge protection demand for formwork tasks.
We can custom any type of edge protection for formwork edges based on your project with detailed requirements.
APAC offers you one-stop solutions for formwork edge protection systems. APAC can provide you with free design services, drawings, and calculations for the Edge Protection System and also offers advanced 3D drawings. You can work with us to help you keep your work zone safe and secure.
APAC formwork edge protection is designed to meet the required load criteria imparted on Formwork decking system arrangements.
When working at the edge, the operator must wear an appropriate harness and lanyard which has been inspected and should be fixed in the appropriate position in the structure in sequence in accordance with the safe use of the restraint system.
Whether you need formwork edge protection for your brand, or you need them for your projects, APAC Builders Equipment can always satisfy your different needs.
The beam clamps from APAC edge protection are customized to specific beams (Aluminium or Timber )and are not applicable to any other formwork beams without special approval from APAC. Just send us your detailed project requirement, we will give you the best Formwork Edge Protection solution.
The Timber Beam Clamp for formwork edge protection is designed to be fixed to H20 beams. We have the clamps for 40mm width and 60mm width beams.
The aluminium beam clampfor formwork edge protection is adjustable, suitable for 60mm to 150mm width aluminium beams. APAC aluminium beam clamps match with various Formwork decking system, we have engineered the clamps to fit various sizes of aluminium beam extrusions sections.
Before installation formwork edge protection, the webs and ends of the beams should be inspected for damage or deformation. After checking that the beam is securely fastened to the scaffold/formwork structure, the clamps for formwork edge protection can be fixed according to APAC’s instructions. The center of the clamps should be at least 150mm from the end of the beam.
The horizontal spacing of clamps should be in accordance with APAC recommendations, and clamps for formwork edge protection should be fixed only on beams at right angles to the direction of the grid barrier.
APAC’s formwork edge protection strictly conform to EN 13374 Class A, we can give you the best results based on our quality.
APAC formwork edge protection proprietary beam clamps are available that lock onto the upper or lower surfaces of aluminium or proprietary timber formwork beams to provide a socket or other means of clamping a vertical handrail post.
These formwork edge protection clamps can be pre-fixed onto the formwork beams during the initial formwork erection procedure and can remain in place during formwork or table movement thus providing a handrail facility at all stages of the formwork use.
The formwork edge protection clamps must be fitted in accordance with the APAC’s instructions at centers that are adequate to sustain the forces exerted onto the posts, via mesh barriers or handrails, due to wind and handrail loading.
