ade stabilisers, displaying all of its unlimited versatility.
When used on faades, the Adapt system allows you to

work with all kinds of possible configurations, thereby
making the work carried out more effective, particularly
in buildings with complex geometries.
It is a rapid, simple assembly and dismantling system,

allowing more to be got out of the labour required. Construction, assembly Construction, assembly Urban rehabilitation,

HIRE
The Adapt multidirectional system is characterised

by forming a structural node based on a support with
eight positions in disk form.
The connection between the bar and the vertical align-

ment is carried out by means of a cast steel coupling
and mobile wedge to implement the final tightening.

which there is the circulation of people concurrently with
the transport of equipment or goods.

TWO IMPORTANT PREMISES:
EASE OF MANUFACTURE AND SPEED OF
ASSEMBLY AND DISMANTLING.
The advantages are immediate: it is an economic product

and it allows operating costs to be cut by using less
labour. The Nor48 system maintains the high quality
standards required by the standardisation system that
certifies the product. By meeting the requirements of the
European Standards EN 12810 and EN 12811, Metalusa

The alignment fastenings allow the panels to be secured

to and aligned with each other. They may be aligned
automatically and they enable the movement of a se-
ries of pre-assembled panels with the aid of the crane.
The Forteko system can tolerate a maximum pressure

of 90kN / m2 during the concrete pour (DIN 18218).
To carry out different combinations with the

Forteko vertical formwork system it is necessary
to use fixed fasteners. These components are
used to join two panels securely whilst simulta-
neously aligning two neighbouring panels. These
elements may be used in the different connection
types: vertical and horizontal panels.
Forteko formwork is anchored by means of

the slots to be found in the panel reinforcement
structures.

The simplicity of the system is supported by the type

case of the beam which is endowed with a slothole in the
support rod situated on the rear part of the beam.
As the various elements are multipurpose, their use in

other formwork situations is fostered.
The Cofiber recoverable formwork system adapts easily

to any type of flat slab, forming a solid, resistant structural

Labour savings, the elimination of wastage and the im-

Working Platform
To meet safety requirements in formworking at a height,

Metalusa has developed the Saftec foldaway platform.
It is a multipurpose platform made using the most sophis-

ticated production systems so as to allow greater working
safety at the works site.
The small number of Saftec foldaway platform compo-

nents makes it easy to use, turning it into an economical
solution for use as a working platform, anti-fall protection
and the shoring of wall formworking.
The monoblock structure of the Saftec platform has a

working size of 1,75m to 2,5m wide and 4,0m to 6,5m
long.
The suspension points are 1.5 m apart to simplify planning

and assembly at the works site.
The Saftec platform weighs 155 daN/ml with the rear

extension applied.

Climbing Formwork
In formworking at a great height using the Shorflex TP

climbing system, the structures are raised with the aid
of a crane. Endowed with a simple design, the climbing
formwork structure is easy to handle and very quick to
assemble.
Combining its functionality with safety, Shorflex TP

climbing formwork is the ideal solution for works at a
height in buildings of any shape and inclination.
The Shorflex TP climbing system may suit any building

format. Even in very specific applications the system
affords high safety and flexibility levels at any height,
saving time on movement with the crane owing to the
fact that the structure works like a single block. The
Shorflex TP climbing system serves as a platform to
support the formwork for walls.
The Shorflex TP formwork block is 2.40 m wide

and is assembled on a trolley with a recoil capacity

SHORFLEX TP CLIMBING FORMWORK

IS A SYSTEM IN WHICH THE WHOLE
STRUCTURE IS GUIDED IN THE
BUILDING. WITH ONE SOLE MOVEMENT,
THE CRANE CARRIES OUT THE RAPID,
SAFE MOVEMENT OF THE COMPLETE
STRUCTURAL UNIT IRRESPECTIVE OF
THE ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS.
Access to the support platform and to the lower gangway

is gained without obstacles and in total safety.
The work platform is totally closed and the access system

is incorporated into the structure in such a way as to
provide maximum safety at great heights.
Shorflex TP CLIMBING FORMWORK offers regular

work cycles in all structures at a great height and
optimises work times, achieving an excellent
performance.
The system is also endowed with great flexibility

owing to perfect adaptation to any type of work,
including only a few components to achieve very
high productivity rates at the works site.

TUNNEL FORMWORKING
METALUSA CATALOGUE
Tunnel Formworking
The Shorflex TN System is geared towards carrying

out highly complex engineering works as is the case
of tunnels.
This system comprises the formworking structure

with Roflex bent panels and the formworking trolley
which is based on steel tracks to position itself at the
concreting site quickly and safely.
The formworking trolley comprises highly-resistant rolled

profiles and it is characterised by its ease of assembly and
great adaptability to any section.
Roflex bent formwork panels allow the implementation

of radii as from 3,5m, thereby enabling the concreting of a
wide variety of shapes.
As the Shorflex TN system comprises reusable modular

elements, it allows high rates of profitability.
System formwork removal is carried out vertically by

relieving the levellers and horizontally by collecting the
lateral formworking modules. It is thus possible to carry
out concreting/formwork removal cycles quickly and
efficiently.
The system is ready to work with concreting loads

of up to 60kN/m.
