Intended use
Doka timber formwork beams are formwork beams
made of wood and intended for use in floor and wall
formwork.
Timber formwork beams are approved only for loads
imposed by direct support for formwork in concrete
construction, but not for heavy point loads in conjunc-
tion with wide spans (e.g. holding girders).

Note:
To achieve maximum service life, follow the storage
instructions (see the section headed ‘Transporting,
