Shutter assembly
Pre-assembly of many components greatly reduces the
set up time onsite and can be started well in advance of
the site being ready to install the formwork.
Shutter assembly
Pre-assembly of the formwork is carried out using fabrication jigs and
can also be done well in advance of the actual site set up (on or off
site).
Shutter assembly
In some cases, by prior arrangement, the fabrication of the formwork panels can be
assembled off site, then transported to site fully assembled and ready to install. This
can save space on congested work sites.
Shutter assembly
Larger panels that are too big to be transported by road can be assembled
on site.
Set Up
The formwork panels are then prepared and oiled prior to lifting into
position.
Set Up
The Internal Rigid Boxes are installed first and fixes the internal
shape/dimensions of the core – this is a unique feature of the
Tru-lift Self Climbing Formwork System.
Set Up
The Steel Walers are easily spliced to any length enabling very large panels
such as this 4.2m high x 20m long panel to be fabricated and lifted into
position in one piece.

On completion of the rebar and formwork installation the steel grid
beams are positioned.
Set Up
Set Up
Bolts and Grid Plates are used for the connections between the grid beams, the
Formwork and Hydraulics.
Set Up
Top Decking and Edge Protection are added upon completion of the Grid
Beam placement.
Operation
The Tru-lift Self Climbing System is operated from a central control
room. Each of the Hydraulic Rams can be controlled individually or
collectively with the flick of one switch.
Operation
The Tru-lift Self Climbing System is generally mounted to the walls of
the first pour. However if the customer would prefer, it can be designed
to form the first pour and push off the base slab as was done on this
particular project.
Operation
The Tru-lift Self Climbing System is truly unique in that the whole system is
jacked in one Jack stroke, eliminating the need for resetting the hydraulics
throughout the lift saving a great deal of time. On this particular project the 3.8m
typical floor height was easily accommodated by jack stoke and capacity.
Operation
The Tru-lift Self Climbing System is to be used to form the first
pour. The Hydraulic Rams should be prevented from movement by
setting brackets around the bottom of it into the base slab.
Operation
External Hanging access brackets are
added on the initial lifts until the
desired length is achieved.
Operation
Suspended access
scaffolds can also be
accommodated as seen
here from below.
Operation
Operation
Rebar cages can be prefabricated and craned into position to speed up the
cycle times if desired.
Operation
When the setup is complete the Tru-lift self climbing system is
operated completely independently, without the need for a crane
to handle the Formwork and easily out performs traditional
Jump form systems.
Operation
The contractor using the Tru-lift System on this particular project was able to
achieve a pour cycle of just 48 hours with 1,100m2 of formwork being jacked in
20-30 minutes.
Dismantle
Upon completion of the structure the system is dismantled in the reverse order to
that of the erection.
The Hanging access
platforms are
removed first.
Dismantle
Followed by the external formwork.
Dismantle
Next the top decking is systematically removed.
Dismantle
Dismantle
The final step is the removal of the internal formwork and wall brackets.
Methods
Detailed method statements are
provided for assembly, erection,
running and dismantle of the
system.
Site supervision is provided at all
stages of the contract.

  • 40. Set Up The Steel Walers are easily spliced to any length enabling very large panels such as this 4.2m high x 20m long panel to be fabricated and lifted into position in one piece.
  • 43. Set Up On completion of the rebar and formwork installation the steel grid beams are positioned.
  • 45. Set Up Bolts and Grid Plates are used for the connections between the grid beams, the Formwork and Hydraulics.
  • 46. Set Up Top Decking and Edge Protection are added upon completion of the Grid Beam placement.
  • 47. Operation The Tru-lift Self Climbing System is operated from a central control room. Each of the Hydraulic Rams can be controlled individually or collectively with the flick of one switch.
  • 48. Operation The Tru-lift Self Climbing System is generally mounted to the walls of the first pour. However if the customer would prefer, it can be designed to form the first pour and push off the base slab as was done on this particular project.
  • 49. Operation The Tru-lift Self Climbing System is truly unique in that the whole system is jacked in one Jack stroke, eliminating the need for resetting the hydraulics throughout the lift saving a great deal of time. On this particular project the 3.8m typical floor height was easily accommodated by jack stoke and capacity.
  • 50. Operation The Tru-lift Self Climbing System is to be used to form the first pour. The Hydraulic Rams should be prevented from movement by setting brackets around the bottom of it into the base slab.
  • 51. Operation External Hanging access brackets are added on the initial lifts until the desired length is achieved.
  • 52. Operation Suspended access scaffolds can also be accommodated as seen here from below.
  • 54. Operation Rebar cages can be prefabricated and craned into position to speed up the cycle times if desired.
  • 55. Operation When the setup is complete the Tru-lift self climbing system is operated completely independently, without the need for a crane to handle the Formwork and easily out performs traditional Jump form systems.
  • 56. Operation The contractor using the Tru-lift System on this particular project was able to achieve a pour cycle of just 48 hours with 1,100m2 of formwork being jacked in 20-30 minutes.
  • 57. Dismantle Upon completion of the structure the system is dismantled in the reverse order to that of the erection. The Hanging access platforms are removed first.
  • 58. Dismantle Followed by the external formwork.
  • 59. Dismantle Next the top decking is systematically removed.
  • 61. Dismantle The final step is the removal of the internal formwork and wall brackets.
  • 62. Methods Detailed method statements are provided for assembly, erection, running and dismantle of the system. Site supervision is provided at all stages of the contract.
