Important Notes:

Without exception, all current safety regulations must be observed in those countries where our products are used.

The photos shown in this brochure feature con-struction sites in progress. For this reason especially safety and anchor details cannot always be consid-ered as conclusive or final. These are subject to the risk assessment carried out by the contractor.

Safety instructions and load specifications are to be strictly observed at all times. Separate structural calculations are required for any deviations from the standard design data.

Increase efficiency and safetySlab forming with PERI GRIDFLEX

Apart from achieving maximum cost-effectiveness, demands for high levels of working safety with system formwork is also increasingly coming to the fore.

With the development of the GRIDFLEX, PERI has created a new generation of slab formwork with which labour productivity clearly increases whilst, at the same time, working safety levels are also raised.

GRIDFLEX forms slabs up to 67 cm thick.

Only 2 system components required for placing the girder grid in a standard field

Maximum utilizationVery simple assembly

Hook in GRIDFLEX element at one end ...

... align horizontally with the shuttering aid ...

... mount prop and position vertically.

The free choice of formlining allows slab soffits according to requirements of the customer.

After the complete assembly process has taken place from below, the closed element grid can be safely accessed for placing the plywood.

PERI GRIDFLEX is:

– fast– adaptable– safe

Using PERI GRIDFLEX is fastSystematic assembly sequence and few components

GRIDFLEX is safely formed from the slab below. Elements are safely hooked in from below and pushed upwards into position by means of the GF shuttering aid.

Setting up and measuring of props is no longer necessary which means mistakes during erection are avoided. Furthermore, untrained personnel can quickly learn how to handle the system.

With a surface area of 2 m², the stand-ard field requires only one prop and, due to the low prop loads, inexpensive PEP 10 and PEP 20 steel tube props can be used.

The standard field is formed using only two main components. This simplifies forming operations, planning and logistics.

The plywood sheets close the girder grid.

The regular unchanging assembly process results in considerable time savings along with a high level of safety for site personnel.

Regular assembly sequence: hook-in element, push into position with the shuttering aid, attach prop and position vertically.

With low individual component weights

All parts are moved by hand and there-fore have a particularly lightweight design. The GFP panel 200 x 100 cm only weighs 10 kg/m².

A minimum of time and effort:Mounting of the GFH Prophead on the prop.

Ergonomic assembly

Time-saving constructionThe spring mechanism secures the prophead to the prop. In so doing, the prophead is attached to the end plate of the prop without the need of pins or screws. This means props can be changed very quickly e.g. for different floor heights.

With practical details:

Storage and transportationWith the space-saving GF stacking device, GRIDFLEX elements can be stacked, stored and transported very compactly.

Stacking Pallet GFFor separate stacking of the 3 element types:GFP 200 x 100, GFC 200 x 100, GFL 150 x 100.

Tension Strap Rail GF 92For Standard Elements GFP 200 x 100 and Filler Elements GFL 150 x 100.Tension Strap Rail GF 125For Filler Element GFC 200 x 100.

For safe transportation and protection of the elements, the lashing is placed over the Tension Strap Rail GF.

PERI GRIDFLEX is adaptableElements telescoped right up to the walls

Changing the forming direction

A flexible formwork system must be able to be adapted to suit all floor plans. Through the change in the forming direction, filler areas can be reduced to a minimum and the largest possible area formed using standard elements. This saves elements and props.

Changing the forming direction.

Also when the direction has been changed, forming takes place as before from the ground.

For forming around columns, the same GRIDFLEX system components are used.

Efficent working conditions

GRIDFLEX elements are produced in different colours. Through this, forming and logistical operations are greatly simplified and mix-ups are a thing of the past.

7

Free choice of plywood

The type of formlining can be freely selected depending upon requirements. The individual plywood sheets are fixed directly with nails to the GRIDFLEX elements.

Flexible and simple filler areas

The telescoping of individual elements was basically adapted from the MULTIFLEX system. The new feature in the GRIDFLEX sys-tem is the two-dimensional adjustment with elements in both transverse and longitudinal directions. Compensations are quickly carried out and adjusting to the requirements of each building is an easy task.

GRIDFLEX offers a free choice of formlining and a safe accessible laying area.

PERI GRIDFLEX is safeIntegrated solutions for safe forming operations

GRIDFLEX is safely formed from the level below.The girder grid elements are simply swivelled upwards into position by means of the Shuttering Aid. Subse-quently, the slab prop with prophead is hooked into the element and vertically positioned The pre-determined assembly sequence prevents any mistakes during forming.The small beam spacing of only 13 cm provides a safe working area for site personnel to install the plywood form-lining.

Safety at building edgesThe Guardrail GF 100 is pre-assembled on the ground and then, together with the element, pushed upwards.Bracing must be installed in order to ensure that the element can be safely pushed upwards into position and secured throughout forming operations.

Safety during formingThe system offers a high level of safety from the beginning onwards during shuttering. The special feature of the GRIDFLEX is the high degree of safety requirements. The system is securely fixed to the building in both longitudinal and transverse directions using the wall holder. This means that the system is securely held in position during the systematic shuttering procedure.

The GRIDFLEX Wall Holder fixes the formwork in both longitudinal and transverse directions.

9

Accessible area for installing the plywoodDue to the small main beam spacing of only 13 cm, as well as the direct connection of the head to the element, the system provides a safe working area for site personnel to install the formlining.
