Elementary safety warnings
User target groups
● This User Information booklet (Method Statement) is
aimed at everyone who will be working with the Doka
product or system it describes. It contains informa-
tion on how to set up this system, and on correct,
compliant utilisation of the system.
● All persons working with the product described
herein must be familiar with the contents of this man-
ual and with all the safety instructions it contains.
● Persons who are incapable of reading and under-
standing this booklet, or who can do so only with dif-
ficulty, must be instructed and trained by the cus-
tomer.
● The customer is to ensure that the information mate-
rials provided by Doka (e.g. User Information book-
lets, Instructions for Assembly and Use, Operating
Instruction manuals, plans etc.) are available to all
users, and that they have been made aware of them
and have easy access to them at the usage location.
Remarks on this document
● This User Information booklet can also be used as a
generic method statement or incorporated with a
site-specific method statement.
● Many of the illustrations in this booklet show the
situation during formwork assembly and are
therefore not always complete from the safety
point of view.
● Further safety instructions, especially warnings,
will be found in the individual sections of this
document!
Planning
● Provide safe workplaces for those using the form-
work (e.g. for when it is being erected/dismantled,
modified or repositioned etc). It must be possible to
get to and from these workplaces via safe access
routes!
● If you are considering any deviation from the
details and instructions given in this booklet, or
any application which goes beyond those
described in the booklet, then revised static cal-
culations must be produced for checking, as well
as supplementary assembly instructions.

Rules applying during all phases of
the assignment:
● The customer must ensure that this product is
erected and dismantled, reset and generally used for
its intended purpose under the direction and super-
vision of suitably skilled persons with the authority to
issue instructions.
● Doka products are ONLY to be used in accordance
with the Doka User Information booklets or other
technical documentation provided by Doka.
● The stability of all components and units must be
ensured during all phases of the construction work!
● The functional/technical instructions, safety warn-
ings and loading data must all be strictly observed
and complied with. Failure to do so can cause acci-
dents and severe (even life-threatening) damage to
health, as well as very great material damage.
● Fire-sources are not permitted anywhere near the
formwork. Heating appliances are only allowed if
properly and expertly used, and set up a safe dis-
tance away from the formwork.
● The work must take account of the weather condi-
tions (e.g. risk of slippage). In extreme weather,
steps must be taken in good time to safeguard the
equipment, and the immediate vicinity of the equip-
ment, and to protect employees.
● All connections must be checked regularly to ensure
that they still fit properly and are functioning cor-
rectly.
It is very important to check all screw-type connec-
tions and wedge-clamped joins whenever the con-
struction operations require (particularly after excep-
tional events such as storms), and to tighten them if
necessary.
Assembly
● The equipment/system must be inspected by the
customer before use, to ensure that it is in suitable
condition. Steps must be taken to rule out the use of
any components that are damaged, deformed, or
weakened due to wear, corrosion or rot.
● Combining our formwork systems with those of other
manufacturers could be dangerous, risking damage
to both health and property. If you intend to combine
different systems, please contact Doka for advice
first.
● The assembly work must be carried out by suitably
qualified employees of the client's.

Eurocodes at Doka
In Europe, a uniform series of Standards known as
Eurocodes (EC) was developed for the construction
field by the end of 2007. These are intended to provide
a uniform basis, valid throughout Europe, for product
specifications, tenders and mathematical verification.
The EC are the world's most highly developed Stand-
ards in the construction field.
In the Doka Group, the EC are to be used as standard
from the end of 2008. They will thus supersede the DIN
norms as the "Doka standard" for product design.
The widely used "Permissible stress design" (compar-
ing the actual stresses with the permissible stresses)
has been superseded by a new safety concept in the
EC.
The EC contrast the actions (loads) with the resistance
(capacity). The previous safety factor in the permissible
stresses is now divided into several partial factors. The
safety level remains the same!

Ed Rd

Ed Design value of effect of actions Rd Design value of the resistance

(E ... effect; d ... design) (R ... resistance; d ... design)

e.g. dead weight, live load, concrete pressure,

Product description
Dokaset is the ideal formwork for meeting the
demands made in the building construction field.
The very high load-bearing capacity and long
lifespan of Dokaset make it an economical solution
for all wall-forming tasks.
Permitted fresh-concrete pressure: 80 kN/m2
Among the many advantages of Dokaset:
● small numbers of form-ties, as only 2 ties are
needed per 2.70 m width, saving both materials and
manhours
● up to a formwork height of 3.37 m, only 1 form-tie in
the concrete
● formwork can be tied working from one side only
– easy and time-saving
● much higher number of form-ply re-use cycles
than with conventional plywood sheets, thanks to the
use of the long-lived Xlife sheet
● All the main jobs on the formwork can be carried
out from the ground, for example:
- attaching the connecting devices
- tying
- attaching/detaching the formwork to/from the
crane
● high standard of safety

The formwork tends to adhere to the concrete.
When stripping the formwork, do not try to

The Dokaset panel in detail

Clean concrete surfaces with the
innovative Xlife sheet
The Xlife sheet consists of a combination of a tradi-
tional plywood core and a novel and innovative
plastic coating.
This combination of materials ensures high numbers of
repeat uses, with superb concrete results every time,
and reduces the proneness to damage.
● High quality concrete finish
● Less touching-up needed
● Less cleaning work - the Xlife sheet can also be
cleaned using a high-pressure spray cleaner
● No breaking away of plywood chips, and less water
is absorbed through nail-holes
● Because the Xlife sheet is screwed on from the rear,
this leaves no screw imprints on the concrete

● Make only moderate use of the jet around the sili-
cone sealing strip:
- If the pressure is too high, this will damage the sil-
icone sealing strip.
- Do not aim the jet at one place for too long.
Do not use any pointed or sharp objects, wire brushes,
rotating grinding disks or pan scourers.
Release agents
Before every pour
➤ Apply release agent to the formwork sheet and the
end faces extremely thinly, evenly and in a contin-
uous layer (make sure there are no traces of
release-agent running down the formwork sheet)!
Applying too much release agent will spoil the con-
crete finish.
To determine the right dosage and to make
sure that you are using the agent correctly, test
it on less important parts of the structure first.

Doka customer training
Formwork training pays
Forming operations account for the lion’s share of
labour costs on concrete construction sites. Modern
formwork equipment helps to rationalise operations. By
improving the overall construction sequence at the
same time, however, further very worthwhile gains in
efficiency can be achieved.
This requires not only better equipment, but also
greater skill in making optimum use of this equipment.
Doka can help here, with its specialist training pro-
gramme - to help each and every member of the team
do his bit towards boosting efficiency and lowering
costs.
Doka customer training events also look at the form-
work equipment and handling methods that are needed
in order to achieve optimum safety - knowledge and
awareness which can only enhance workplace safety
on the site.
You’ll find the Doka training programme well worth
looking into.
Your nearest Doka branch will be pleased to tell
you more about Doka's various training offerings.
