If the moisture content is higher than shown in the dia-
grams below, the modulus of elasticity diminishes sig-
nificantly (i.e. deformation increases), and this is
accompanied by a reduction in strength. This, in conse-
quence, means a reduction in the ability to bear loads.

The deflection characteristics of the Xlife sheet

in the longitudinal are different from those in the
transverse direction. The only way to tell which
is the longitudinal and which is the transverse
direction is by the direction of the lettering on
the formwork sheets.
For the purpose of the following diagrams, then,
be sure to know which way round the Xlife
sheets are placed in relation to the supports
(e.g. Doka beams).

Shear stress and bending stress on

tie-rods
Until recently, it has not been permitted to subject tie-
rods to shear force.
Owing to improved manufacturing methods, this is now
allowed to a permitted extent.

Dokamatic table
9767-200-01
Note:
In accordance with EN 12812, this allows for a service
load of 0.75 kN/m2 and a variable load of 10% of a mas-
sive concrete floor-slab, totalling at least 0.75 kN/m2
but no more than 1.75 kN/m2 (assuming a fresh-con-
crete density of 2500 kg/m3). Mid-span deflection has
been limited to l/500.
Dokamatic tables can be fitted with different formwork

sheets. The structural design is therefore split in two
parts:

at least 0.75 kN/m2 but no more than 1.75 kN/m2 (assuming a fresh-concrete density of 2500 kg/m3). Mid-span deflection has been limited to l/500.
In the case of cavity flat-slab floors, significantly lower slab loads occur.

The calculated values are in line with the 'Type test

In all cases which differ from the stated boundary

for the dimensioning calculation, to ensure adequate

Such deviations may be due to: Superstructure configuration

- different wind loads
- different inter-frame spacings Top-held systems Free-standing systems
- additional horizontal loads
- single legs
- larger screw-jack extension lengths
- inclined load-bearing tower

Special applications
Demarcation of work-zones
When combined with fence-feet baseblocks, the Edge
protection system XP can also be used to demarcate
different working areas within a jobsite.
Required spacing of the handrail posts: 2.50 m
(as the Protective gratings XP have to be mounted in a
higher position).
Requirements for fence-feet baseblocks:
Dead weight min. 25 kg; length of baseblock foot
80 cm
Recess for 40 x 40 mm squared tube

98031-234-01
b ... 250 cm
h ... max. 130 cm
A Fence-feet baseblock (site-provided)
B Handrail post XP 1.20m
C Protective grating XP 2.70x1.20m
Important note:
This demarcation fence is not a fall-arrest
barrier as defined by EN 13374!
Ensure that it has sufficient stability against
overturning, and allow for wind loads!
When used as a safety guard and demarca-
tion fence for fall-hazard locations, it must be
placed min. 2.00 m from the drop-off edge!
Observe all local Standards and regulations!
