THE JUMPOFORM SYSTEM is
engineered for the safe and economical construction of monolithic
concrete tanks and silos. The radially telescoping design of the working
platform and superstructure, combined with flexible steel forms, permits
the construction of silos of different diameters and varying wall
thickness.
Three courses of 4' high
forms are used. The silo is simply constructed by successively jumping
and resetting the lower 4' course of forms on the top course of forms.
The working platform is then raised 4' to the top of the newly set
course of forms to a position for concrete placement.
After completion of the
walls, the platform functions as a working platform for the roof
construction or internal work during descent. The JumpOForm® method of
construction permits non-continuous
work. Costly overtime, multiple-shift labor premiums, and night lighting
can be eliminated.
The JumpOForm® system is
capable of constructing silos for the storage of all bulk materials,
unloading tubes for bulk material stockpiling, water tanks and stand
pipes, vertical shafts, and circular building cores. The JumpOForm® System can also
be used for the repair and/or lining of damaged or deteriorated silos,
tanks, shafts, or cores. |
