Strong but light to handle
Continuing in its drive
to reduce the cost of labour in concrete formwork
and to simplify design and assembly, RMD Australia
has two aluminium beams in its product range.
Aluminium beams combine the benefits of strength,
lightness and ease of handling with consistency,
versatility and exceptional durability. With
an extensive range of accessories, the beams
form a complete system that can be used for
virtually unlimited configurations and applications.
RMD Aluminium Beams have very high resistance
to bending, concentred load capacity and rigidity
against deflection.
The Alform Beam has unique
inclined twin webs, which, together with the
edge stiffenings, provide great lateral stability
and robustness in use. Plywood formwork is
simply attached by nail connection to the
timber batten in the upper flange, and the
bevelled edge to the top flange allows for
easy removal of the formwork on completion
of use.
A central neutral axis ensures a very economical
section, particularly in mutispan applications,
and coupled with its range of accessories,
the Alform Beam provides contractors with
a very cost effective formwork system.
RMD Australia's portfolio of Aluminium Beams
include:
Albeam
This is a 225mm deep, heavy-duty primary beam
for slab support, with a very high bending
and concentrated load capacity.
Alform Beam
This 150mm deep beam is designed for wall
formwork and slab support applications.
