VARIOKIT VGW Cantilevered Parapet Carriage

Overview

For meeting the requirements of modern bridge construction, the PERI Cantilevered Parapet Carriage provides a flexible, efficient and simple solution.

Thanks to the components from the VARIOKIT system, the cantilever of the VGW can be flexibly adapted to suit a wide range of geometries. Frame spacings and formwork lengths per carriage unit can also be designed to be load-dependent. This allows the system to be optimally utilised.

Moving the formwork carriage is carried out cost-effectively and according to project requirements by means of heavy-duty rollers on U-steel profiles. As a rule, no anchoring is required in the structure and horizontal forces from the concreting operations or wind are transferred by means of friction. Final assembly is quick and easy through the use of fitting pin connections. As an option, the units can also be delivered pre-assembled. The VARIOKIT core and system components are all rentable which means they are quickly available and without any prior investment on the construction site.

Technical Details

  • Standard deployment is with 4 carriages of 5.50 m each
  • With this configuration, parapets can be realized up to a height of w/h = 50/80 cm. For this, the ballast is merely modified for the respective loads.
  • Larger parapets can be realized thanks to the VARIOKIT modular construction kit as well as by simply changing the geometry on the carriage.
