Introduction
Elementary safety warnings
User target groups
▪ This booklet is aimed at all persons who will be work-
ing with the Doka product or system that it describes.
It contains information on the standard design for
setting up this system, and on correct, compliant uti-
lisation of the system.
▪ All persons working with the product described
herein must be familiar with the contents of this
booklet 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 up to date and
available to all users, and that they have been made
aware of them and have easy access to them at the
usage location.
▪ In the relevant technical documentation and form-
work utilisation plans, Doka shows the workplace
safety precautions that are necessary in order to use
the Doka products safely in the usage situations
shown.
In all cases, users are obliged to ensure compliance
with national laws, standards and regulations
throughout the entire project and to take appropriate
additional or alternative workplace safety precau-
tions where necessary.
Hazard assessment
▪ The customer is responsible for drawing up, docu-
menting, implementing and continually updating a
hazard assessment at every job-site.
This booklet serves as the basis for the site-specific
hazard assessment, and for the instructions given to
users on how to prepare and utilise the system. It
does not substitute for these, however.

Introduction
Remarks on this booklet
▪ This document can be used as general Instructions
for Assembly and Use (Method Statement) or be
incorporated into site-specific Instructions for
Assembly and Use (Method Statement).
▪ The graphics, animations and videos in this doc-
ument or app sometimes depict partially assem-
bled assemblies and may require additional
safety equipment and/or measures to comply
with safety regulations.
The customer must ensure all applicable regulations
are complied with, even if they are not shown or
implied in the graphics, animations and videos pro-
vided.
▪ Individual sections contain further safety
instructions and/or special warnings as applica-
ble.
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.
Regulations; industrial safety
▪ All laws, Standards, industrial safety regulations and
other safety rules applying to the utilisation of our
products in the country and/or region in which you
are operating must be observed at all times.
▪ If a person or object falls against, or into, the side-
guard component and/or any of its accessories, the
component affected may only continue in use after it
has been inspected and passed by an expert.

▪ It is strictly forbidden to weld Doka products – in par-
ticular anchoring/tying components, suspension
components, connector components and castings
etc. – or otherwise subject them to heating.
Welding causes serious change in the microstruc-
ture of the materials from which these components
are made. This leads to a dramatic drop in the failure
load, representing a very great risk to safety.
It is permissible to cut individual tie rods to length
with metal cutting discs (introduction of heat at the
end of the rod only), but it is important to ensure that
flying sparks do not heat and thus damage other tie
rods.
The only articles which are allowed to be welded are
those for which the Doka literature expressly points
out that welding is permitted.

Transporting, stacking and storing
▪ Observe all country-specific regulations applying to
the handling of formwork and scaffolding. For system
formwork the Doka slinging means stated in this
booklet must be used – this is a mandatory require-
ment.
If the type of sling is not specified in this document,
the customer must use slinging means that are suit-
able for the application envisaged and that comply
with the regulations.
▪ When lifting, always make sure that the unit to be
lifted and its individual parts can absorb the forces
that occur.
▪ Remove loose parts or secure them so that they can-
not slip out of position and drop.
▪ When lifting formwork or formwork accessories with
a crane, no persons must be carried along, e.g. on
working platforms or in multi-trip packaging.
▪ All components must be stored safely, following all
the special Doka instructions given in the relevant
sections of this document!
Maintenance
▪ Only original Doka components may be used as
spare parts. Repairs may only be carried out by the
manufacturer or authorised facilities.
Miscellaneous
The weights as stated are averages for new material;
actual weights can differ, depending on material toler-
ances. Dirt accretions, moisture saturation, etc. can
also affect weight.
We reserve the right to make alterations in the interests
of technical progress.
Eurocodes at Doka
The permissible values stated in Doka documents
(e.g. Fperm = 70 kN) are not design values (e.g. FRd =
105 kN)!
▪ It is essential to avoid confusing permissible values
with design values!
▪ Doka documents will continue to state the permissi-
ble values.
Allowance has been made for the following partial fac-
tors:
▪ γF = 1.5
▪ γM, timber = 1.3
▪ γM, steel = 1.1
▪ kmod = 0.9
Consequently, all the design values for an EC design
calculation can be determined from the permissible val-
ues.
