Hazard assessment
▪ The customer is responsible for drawing up, docu-menting, implementing and continually updating a hazard assessment at every job-site. This booklet serves as the basis for the site-specific hazard assessment, and for the instructions given to users on how to prepare and utilise the system. It does not substitute for these, however.
Remarks on this booklet
▪ This document can be used as general Instructions for Assembly and Use (Method Statement) or be incorporated into site-specific Instructions for Assembly and Use (Method Statement).
▪ The graphics, animations and videos in this doc-ument or app sometimes depict partially assem-bled assemblies and may require additional safety equipment and/or measures to comply with safety regulations.The customer must ensure all applicable regulations are complied with, even if they are not shown or implied in the graphics, animations and videos pro-vided.
▪ Individual sections contain further safety instructions and/or special warnings as applica-ble.
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.
Regulations; industrial safety
▪ All laws, Standards, industrial safety regulations and other safety rules applying to the utilisation of our products in the country and/or region in which you are operating must be observed at all times.
▪ If a person or object falls against, or into, the side-guard component and/or any of its accessories, the component affected may only continue in use after it has been inspected and passed by an expert.

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 in accordance with the applica-ble laws, standards and rules, under the direction and supervision of suitably skilled persons. 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 and load-bearing capacity of all compo-nents and units must be ensured during all phases of the construction work!
▪ Do not step on or apply strain to cantilevers, clo-sures, etc. until suitable measures to ensure their stability have been correctly implemented (e.g. by tie-backs).
▪ Strict attention to and compliance with the functional instructions, safety instructions and load specifica-tions are required. Non-compliance can cause acci-dents and severe injury (risk of fatality) and consid-erable damage to property.
▪ Sources of fire in the vicinity of the formwork are pro-hibited. Heaters are permissible only when used cor-rectly and situated a correspondingly safe distance from the formwork.
▪ Customer must give due consideration to any and all effects of the weather on the equipment and regards both its use and storage (e.g. slippery surfaces, risk of slipping, effects of the wind, etc.) and implement appropriate precautionary measures to secure the equipment and surrounding areas and to protect workers.
▪ All connections must be checked at regular intervals to ensure that they are secure and in full working order. In particular threaded connections and wedged con-nections have to be checked and retightened as nec-essary in accordance with activity on the jobsite and especially after out-of-the-ordinary occurrences (e.g. after a storm).
▪ It is strictly forbidden to weld Doka products – in par-ticular anchoring/tying components, suspension components, connector components and castings etc. – or otherwise subject them to heating.Welding causes serious change in the microstruc-ture of the materials from which these components are made. This leads to a dramatic drop in the failure load, representing a very great risk to safety.It is permissible to cut individual tie rods to length with metal cutting discs (introduction of heat at the end of the rod only), but it is important to ensure that flying sparks do not heat and thus damage other tie rods.The only articles which are allowed to be welded are those for which the Doka literature expressly points out that welding is permitted.
Assembly
▪ The equipment/system must be inspected by the customer before use, to ensure that it is in an accept-able condition. Steps must be taken to exclude com-ponents that are damaged, deformed, or weakened due to wear, corrosion or rot (e.g. fungal decay).
▪ Using our safety and formwork systems together with those of other manufacturers can create risks that may lead to injury and damage to property. This requires separate verification.
▪ The equipment/system must be assembled and erected in accordance with the applicable laws, standards and rules by trained customer personnel whilst maintaining any applicable safety inspections that may be required.
▪ It is not permitted to modify Doka products; such modifications constitute a safety risk.
Closing the formwork
▪ Doka products and systems must be set up so that all loads acting upon them are safely transferred!
Pouring
▪ Do not exceed the permitted fresh-concrete pres-sures. Over-high pouring rates overload the form-work, cause greater deflection and risk breakage.
Stripping the formwork
▪ Do not strip out the formwork until the concrete has reached sufficient strength and the person in charge has given the order for the formwork to be stripped out!
▪ When stripping out 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 stripping out the formwork, do not endanger the stability of any part of the structure, or of any scaffolding, platforms or formwork that is still in place!

Transporting, stacking and storing
▪ Observe all country-specific regulations applying to the handling of formwork and scaffolding. For system formwork the Doka slinging means stated in this booklet must be used – this is a mandatory require-ment.If the type of sling is not specified in this document, the customer must use slinging means that are suit-able for the application envisaged and that comply with the regulations.
▪ When lifting, always make sure that the unit to be lifted and its individual parts can absorb the forces that occur.
▪ Remove loose parts or secure them so that they can-not slip out of position and drop.
▪ All components must be stored safely, following all the special Doka instructions given in the relevant sections of this document!
Maintenance
▪ Only original Doka components may be used as spare parts. Repairs may only be carried out by the manufacturer or authorised facilities.
Miscellaneous
The weights as stated are averages for new material; actual weights can differ, depending on material toler-ances. Dirt accretions, moisture saturation, etc. can also affect weight.We reserve the right to make alterations in the interests of technical progress.
Eurocodes at Doka
The permissible values stated in Doka documents (e.g. Fperm = 70 kN) are not design values (e.g. FRd = 105 kN)! ▪ It is essential to avoid confusing permissible values
with design values! ▪ Doka documents will continue to state the permissi-
ble values. Allowance has been made for the following partial fac-tors: ▪ γF = 1.5 ▪ γM, timber = 1.3 ▪ γM, steel = 1.1 ▪ kmod = 0.9Consequently, all the design values for an EC design calculation can be determined from the permissible val-ues.

Introduction User Information Framed formwork Framax Xlife plus
Framed formwork Framax Xlife plusThe form ties are centered and can be operated from one side, so the Framax Xlife plus system ena-bles even faster forming of walls. This makes compliance with requirements for sym-metrical form-tie grids and joint patterns quick and easy. The Framax Xlife plus form tie, with its design features such as a parked position on the panel, is the centrepiece of the system and permits even faster forming and stripping.
Faster working
with a single sided, conical tie rod system ▪ the Tie rod system Framax Xlife plus can be oper-
ated from one side, offering savings of up to one third in forming and stripping times
▪ shorter forming times as some of the tasks have been eliminated, e.g. cutting and fitting of jacket tubes and cones
▪ less time spent searching as the form-tie 'parking' position is right at the form-tie point
Highly cost-efficient
thanks to both tried-and-tested and new product features ▪ no material costs associated with form-tie points,
e.g. for wearing parts of the form-tie sleeve, jacket tubes and cones
▪ wide spacing between form-ties (1.35 m apart) saves up to twelve per cent of the costs for form-tie points and finishing work on form-tie holes
▪ high numbers of repeat uses made possible by excellent manufacturing quality and extra-durable Xlife sheets
▪ steel frames are hot-dip galvanised, both inside and out, for long lifespan
▪ form ties are opened and closed using a ratchet for minimal wear-and-tear on equipment
Easy handling and planning
thanks to the consistent system logic ▪ the small number of additional panel types ensures
optimum material use and effective logistics ▪ the extra-large square panel enables vertical stack-
ing with standard horizontal panels, without a multi-tude of additional small panels
▪ errors in form-tie setting are eliminated since every single form-tie point is used
Harmonic architectural surfaces
with regular form-tie and joint patterns ▪ consistent joint pattern thanks to matching panel for-
mats, even when combining upright and horizontal panels
▪ no screw imprints on the concrete because the form-work sheet is fixed from the rear
▪ centrally arranged form-tie points resulting in sym-metrical form-tie patterns
▪ aesthetically pleasing form-tie points thanks to uni-form conical imprints

Instructions for assembly and use for room-high formworkThe sequence shown here is based on a straight wall. However, you should always start to form from the cor-ner outwards.Ladders must be located so as to create viable 'traffic routes' in the horizontal. (On a straight wall, for exam-ple, one ladder on the first element and another on the last).
Transporting / handling the panels
➤For offloading panels from a truck, or lifting them on-site a stack at a time, use the Framax transport gear (see 'Transporting, stacking and storing').
➤To separate the panels, use Framax transport bolts and the Doka 4-part chain 3.20m (see 'Transporting, stacking and storing').
Pre-assembly
➤Pre-assemble elements face-down on an assembly bench (see 'Inter-panel connections').
➤With the gang-form still flat, mount panel struts to it (see 'Plumbing accessories').
➤Mount the Ladder system XS (see 'Ladder system').
Closing the formwork
➤Attach the lifting chain to the Framax lifting hook (see the section headed 'Lifting by crane' and the Operat-ing Instructions for the 'Framax lifting hook').
➤Raise the gang-form by crane.➤Spray the formwork sheet with release agent (see
the section headed 'Cleaning and care of your equip-ment').
➤Fly the gang-form to its new location.
➤Fix the panel struts firmly to the ground (see the sec-tion headed 'Plumbing accessories').
The gang-form is now stable and can be plumbed and aligned exactly, with no need for the crane.
➤Detach the gang-form from the crane. The crew can reach the slinging points by standing on a step stool.
➤Slot the pouring platform into place (see the section headed 'Pouring platforms').
Max. load: ▪ Spread angle β up to 30°:
1000 kg (2200 lbs) / Framax lifting hook ▪ Spread angle β up to 7.5°:
1500 kg (3300 lbs) / Framax lifting hookFramax lifting hooks with the rated load-bearing capacity of max. 1000 kg (2200 lbs) also comply with the requirements for a load bearing capacity of 1500 kg (3300 lbs) at a spread angle β ≤ 7.5°.

and link them together (see the section headed 'Inter-panel connections').
➤Fit end-of-platform sideguards (see the section headed 'Pouring platforms').
Erecting the opposing formwork:
Once the reinforcement has been placed, the form-work can be closed.➤Mount the opposing guard-rail to the (laid-flat) gang-
form of the opposing formwork (see the section headed 'Opposing guard-rail').
➤Spray the formwork sheet with release agent (see the section headed 'Cleaning and care of your equip-ment').
➤Lift the opposing formwork by crane to its next loca-tion.
➤Fit the form ties (see the section headed 'Tie rod sys-tem Framax Xlife plus').
➤Detach the gang-form from the crane (wherever pos-sible, operate the lifting hook from the opposite pour-ing platform).
➤Continue lining up further gang-forms in this way, and link them together (see the section headed 'Inter-panel connections').
Pouring
Observe the following guidelines: ▪ The section headed 'Pressure of fresh concrete on
vertical formwork – DIN 18218' in the Calculation Guide 'Doka formwork engineering'
▪ DIN 4235 Part 2 - 'Compacting of concrete by vibrat-ing'
➤Pour the concrete.
WARNINGThere is not yet an opposing guard-rail on the formwork!Danger to life from fatal falls!➤Either use personal protective equipment to
protect against falls (e.g. Doka personal fall-arrest set) or mount an opposing guard-rail to the gang-form while this is still being pre-assembled in a flat position.
98112-228-01
Before disconnecting from the crane:➤ If there are no panel struts on the opposing
formwork, do not disconnect the element from the crane until a large enough number of form ties have been installed to keep it safely in the upright.

Inter-panel connections
Attributes of the panel connectors: ▪ provide self-aligning, crane-handleable connections
between the panels ▪ have no loose parts which might get lost ▪ dirt-resistant and hard-wearing for site use ▪ easy to fix, with a formwork hammer
Panels upright:
Panels on their sides:
Note: ▪ For details regarding extra inter-panel connections
on outside corners and stop-ends (for increased ten-sile loads) see the section headed 'Inter-panel con-nections for increased tensile loads'.
▪ See 'Vertical stacking of panels’ for details on the positions of the Framax quick acting clamps RU and Framax multi-function clamps that are needed when vertically extending.
Simple inter-panel connections
with Framax quick acting clamp RU
The continuous hardware slot running around the inside of the frame profile means that panels can be fastened together at any point desired. This allows adjacent panels to be staggered in height, steplessly.
NOTICE ▪ Use a formwork hammer weighing max.
800 g. ▪ Do not oil or grease wedged connections.

Self-aligning inter-panel connections and closures
with Framax multi function clamp
Particularly when panels are stacked in the vertical, the fact that the clamp bears directly on the profiles means that there is often no need for any extra bracing of the panels with universal walings.
More functions
Inter-panel connections
Joining the panels using the Framax multi function clamp provides additional bracing of the gang-form (as the clamp bears directly onto the profile).
Filler connection up to 15 cm
With its 15 cm clamping range, the Framax multi-func-tion clamp exactly matches the panel size-grid.For more information, see 'Length adjustment using closures".

Bracing the panels
Framax universal waling
Using additional universal walings gives gang-forms better rigidity, especially in higher vertically stacked configurations. This makes it possible to pick up and set down large gang-forms by crane without any prob-lems. The additional universal walings are also useful for transferring the loads from platforms.
Note:Instead of the universal waling, it is also possible to use a Multi-purpose waling WS10 Top50.

Attainable wall thicknessesin 5 cm increments in 6 cm increments
If the entire outside corner is raised and repo-sitioned by crane, then no universal walings are needed for height-bracing the panels.
Wall thickness (a) Panel width (b)15 cm 0.45m (45 cm)
>15 - 20 cm 0.50m (50 cm)>20 - 25 cm 0.55m (55 cm)>25 - 30 cm 0.60m (60 cm)>30 - 40 cm 0.75m (75 cm)
Closure width c = panel width b [cm] - 30 cm - wall thickness a [cm]
When there is a closure on both sides of the inside corner, bracing can be achieved eco-nomically with the universal corner waling.
