Advanced Technology from Golf Scaffolding Factor |
|
GOLF Scaffolding Factory was established in 1989 and has grown to become an essential part of the construction industry, with a network covering the Middle East, Canada, Europe, and Africa . Although GSF, is not the largest form and false-work supplier in the world, its enviable reputation puts it as the leader in its field.
|
|
Today, with safety, economy and the satisfaction of our clients as our priemer objectives we offer high quality products, supported by a highly qualified team of form and false-work design specialists. |
|
The Multiform system is our newest and by far the most advanced and practically thought of multi-functional form and false-work system available. |
|
Our structural engineers of whom specialize in temporary structure designs, have invented our system of form and false-work while taking into account the complexities and time consuming tasks of erecting and dismantling these components, along with cost and work safety.

|
The main advantages of using this system are:
|
|
 |
Replacement of the many false and form-work systems which exist in today's market due to the wide variety of project types and shapes |
|
|
Falsework and form-work costs are minimized on every project which normally represents up to 40% 0f the total project budget. Using a 'DO IT ALL SYSTEM', such as the Multiform system, will result in an overall cost reduction of up to 30% on the cost of the false and form-work materials |
|
|
A reduction in erection and dismantling time by as much as 50% which will result in huge savings on labour and a faster construction cycle |
|
|
Improvement in the finishing form and surface of the concreted member |
|
|
The rational use of this multiform system offers a solution for all kinds of small and large projects. GSF's Technical Department has designed this system for a safe and quick assembly in order to achieve optimal economic distribution according to the structure geometry. The system is ideal for foundations, walls, columns, shafts, bridges, all kinds of slabs, and many others. |
|
Technical Details:
|
|
The Multiform System was designed to withstand the maximum concrete pressure possible stated in the ACI and BS codes for form-work design, 2000 psf (97 kN/M2) for walls and 3000 psf (145.5 kN/M2)for columns. In construction field language, the allowable fresh-concrete height is unrestricted by the forms |
|
|
As a Table-System with a soffit size of 12 ft x 8 ft (3.60m x 2.44m) supported by two foldable heavy-duty frames spaced at 8 ft (2.50m) c/c., the system is capable of supporting a solid slab up to 39in. (1000mm) thick, and 49 in. (1250mm) thick hollow |
|
|
A reduction in erection and dismantling time by as much as 50% which will result in huge savings on labour and a faster construction cycle |
|
|
The Multiform Shoring System was designed to support the main system. User-friendly, simple and rapid-shoring system, its allowable load capacity is double that of the widely used systems. The estimated allowable loading of the multiform shoring system is 18.0 KIPS (80,0 kN) per leg. However, besides the foldable, fully-braced upon opening, double-frame system, the multiform shoring system includes heavy-duty single frames to be used in heavy construction projects such as bridges, etc.. Depending on frame sizes and tower heights, the safe working loads of this system varies form 18,0 to 13,0 KIPS(80,0 to 58,0 kN) per leg |
