L1 & L2 LIFT WORKING PLATFORM - Steel Formwork Design
Date 3/05/2023
Descr. Design brief Sht. 1
Ref Output
Design brief: (Load Path)
Design special steel formwork for lift shaft working platform.

Top Platform: The formwork will comprise of 3 mm face plate and supported by
80 x 40 x 8 mm steel angle (1) & (2) at max. 550 & 814 mm c/c and supported by
80 x 40 x 8 mm steel angle strut. The strut load will transfer to mid platform .

Bottom Platform: The formwork will comprise of 3 mm face plate and supported by
(7) & (8) 80 x 40 x 8 mm steel angle at max. 893/525 mm c/c and supported by
80 x 40 x 8 mm steel angle strut. The strut load will transfer to mid platform .

Mid Platform: The formwork will comprise of 3 mm face plate and supported by
102x51x10.42 kg/m steel channel (4) brace member at max. 700 mm c/c
and supported by 102 x 51 x 10.42 kg/m (5) main member at max. 1050 mm c/c
and supported by 102 x 51 x 10.42 kg/m steel channel (6) support at max. 2700 mm c/c.

* For Lifting the working platform, the lifting hook & support at Mid-platform should be used.

Three platform supported by 6 no. of Dia. 25 tie at max. 900 c/c.

Load Determine: (Three platform can be used in same time)


- 1 Total Design Load = 2.0 kpa (Upper Platform)
- 2 Total Design Load = 2.35 kpa (Middle Platform)
- 3 Total Design Load = 2.0 kpa (Lower Platform)
