The definitive primary beam

Summary:

• Super Slim Soldiers have an unrivalled strength-to-weight ratio
• Their full range of accessories makes them compatible with many other RMD Australia products, so their flexibility is very high
• Super Slim Soldiers are frequently used to construct conventional formwork of various dimensions
• With jacks affixed at both ends they can be used as vertical, diagonal and horizontal shores

 

The Super Slim Soldier is the definitive formwork primary beam, with its unrivalled strength-to-weight ratio, versatility and range of accessories. Its ten standard lengths, from 90mm to 3600mm provide almost unlimited scope for assembling beams of virtually any length.

Using close-tolerance jigs, the Super Slim Soldier is precisely manufactured from high-yield steel, combining maximum durability and load capacity with reduced unit weight.

Standard fixtures and clamps make it fully compatible with other RMD Australia product ranges and, in many cases, with the customers' own equipment. Formwork ties and other components can be fixed virtually anywhere along the Super Slim Soldier’s length, giving you the freedom to create the optimum design.

When using a plywood form face with secondary beams, Super Slim Soldiers can be used to construct straight, curved, conical or other complex formwork configurations.

Super Slim Soldiers are ideal as primary beams on shoring or scaffolding to support reinforced concrete slab constructions.

Because they can be assembled into practically any length, Super Slim Soldiers are often used as raking shores, as well as vertical shoring.

Super Slim Soldiers can be assembled into:

• Wall formwork panels
• Vertical and raking shores
• Spanning beams and trusses
• Bridge cantilever edge and deck supports
• Travelling gantries
• Façade retention

With an unrivalled range of sizes and accessories the Super Slim Soldier is the backbone of the RMD Australia product range and is marketed worldwide.
