GFS-1 SOLDIER SYSTEM: MAKE UP OF LONGER SECTIONS A unique feature of the GFS-1 Soldier System is the high strength connection that can be made between sold iers by use of the jo int plate. This is particu lar ly important where t ies through the concrete must be kept to the m inimum . In less critica l situations simple bolt ing can be used as an alternative.

END-TO-END FITTING WITH JOINT PLATE A very strong connection resu lting in savings in the number of t ies required can be made w ith the unique Jo int Plate. Soldiers are butted end-to-end and connected using the Joint Plate for HT pins and eight spring clips. The moment of the j oint must not exceed 17 .80KNM (70 percent of moment resistance of the sold ier).

JOINT PLATE Supplied complete w ith four ( 4) HT pins.

END-TO-END FITTING WITH SET SCREWS Soldiers are butted end-to-end and secured us ing four ( 4) M 16 x 35mm set screws and nuts fixed t hrough the holes in the end plates. The moment at t he j oint must not exceed 5kNm (20 percent of moment resistance of t he sold ier).

SET SCREWS

GFS- 1 SOLDIER SYSTEM ACCESS

Access is provided by the access bracket which is designed to support three (3) standard scaffold boards with toe board and is used with the standard handrail post.

ACCESS BRACKET Used to support three (3) standard scaffold boards and toe board to provide a wa lkway for access to the form at any height.

WEIGHT: 5.49 KG

SOLDIER SYSTEM: STABILIZING

Forms can be plumbed using the st abi lizer which incorporates a captive jack to allow pos itive and accurate adjustment: the usua l need for timber packing and wedges is eliminated.

STABILIZER Used to stabilize the form and to plumb the form face. a minimum of two stab ilizers are required per panel. The integral jack has a total adjustment of 335mm. The stab ilizer is bolted into t he space between the webs of the so ldier using two M16 x 75mm bolts and nuts. When not in use the top brace fo lds flat for ease of handling and storage.

GFS-1 SOLDIER SYSTEM FIXING WALINGS TIMBER WALING CLAMP

Used to clamp timber wa lings 50mm-75mm t hick to the Soldier at any height . One arm of the J bolt is bolted th rough the timber wa ling (18mm dia hole to be pre-drilled 75mm-95mm from form face of Sold ier). The other is clamped over t he flange of the Soldier.

WEIGHT: 0.80 KG

UNIVERSAL CLAMP

Used t o clamp aluminum wa lers t o t he soldier. It is supplied with bolt and nut.

WEIGHT: 0.58 KG

WALING CLIP

Used to clamp standard scaffo ld tubes across the back face of Soldiers as an alternative method of bracing the form.

GFS-1 SOLDIER SYSTEM DESI GN DATA The design data of GFS- 1 so ldier permits ties to be positioned at any height.

Two solutions are detailed below, the first is with ties at the top and bottom of the so ldier to allow the top tie to be above concrete level, the second is with the ties spaced to ba lance the pos itive and negative moments in the soldier and al low maximum spacing.

GFS-1 SOLDIER SYSTEM TIMBER WALING AND PLYWOOD PROPERTIES SPACING OF TIMBER WALING M!Hii4iih:l::IHFHll#IIMll#ili·iHt&IMMiitiiiHHt&i Spacing is for wal ings that are simply supported and may be increased by up to 20 percent where wa li ngs are cont inuous over several sold iers or strongbacks . However, the permissible span of plywood may be a limiting fact or, see below.

The maximum pressures tabulated are those acti ng in the region of t he waling including impact surcharge where relevant . Calculation for the walings centers are based on t imber group 2, grade 50 softwood species.

It is high-tensile with fast action thread along its full length having a maximum overall diameter of 15.50mm. Material is ava ilable in 6.00m standard lengths. Scaffco heavy duty ties may be used to a maximum S.W.L. of 90kN.

WING NUT

Used with so ldiers and strongbacks in conjunction with thrust plate. Also used for timber formwork. Dimensions: 30mm across flats, 55mm overall length.

THRUST /TIE PLATES

WATERSTOP

Used for wate rtight concrete wa ll on st ructures genera ll y required for reservoirs. See above details for connection .

Used in conjunction with wing nut for the use of timber bearers. Thrust plates are avai lab le in two sizes to suit different load ings:

WEIGHT 0.88 KG

SAFE WORKING LOAD 90 kN

PLASTIC SLEEVING

Used to prevent contact between the concrete and the tie rod thus, facilitating recovery of the tie . The sleeving is fitted between the form faces .
