Abstract
A formwork system for a bridge pier configured to support loads associated with bridge pier construction with reduced, or being free of, anchors in the column.
Claims20
A formwork system, comprising:
- at least one beam configured to be positioned at a first height relative to a column;
- at least one transverse beam configured to be positioned at a second height below the first height and transverse to a longitudinal direction of the at least one beam;
- at least one strut coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one beam and coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one transverse beam;
- and
- at least one rod coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one transverse beam, wherein the at least one transverse beam and the at least one strut are configured such that at least a portion of the forces borne by the at least one strut are transferred to the column through contact, directly or indirectly, with a section of the column having no anchoring elements piercing an exterior surface of the column.

- at least one beam configured to be positioned at a first height relative to a column;
- at least one transverse beam configured to be positioned at a second height relative to the column;
- at least one strut coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one beam and coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one transverse beam;
- and
- at least one rod coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one transverse beam and a) coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one beam such that a vertical load is transferred to the at least one beam, or b) coupled, directly or indirectly, to the column such that a vertical load is transferred to the column, wherein the at least one transverse beam and the at least one strut are configured such that at least a portion of the forces borne by the at least one strut are transferred to the column through contact, directly or indirectly, with a section of the column having no anchoring elements piercing an exterior surface of the column.

A formwork system for a bridge pier, comprising:
- at least one beam configured to be positioned at a first height relative to a column of the bridge pier and configured to support pouring a cap of the bridge pier;
- at least one transverse beam configured to be positioned at a second height relative to the column;
- at least one strut coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one beam and coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one transverse beam;
- and
- at least one rod coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one transverse beam, wherein the at least one transverse beam and the at least one strut are configured such that at least a portion of the forces borne by the at least one strut are transferred to the column through contact, directly or indirectly, with a section of the column having no anchoring elements piercing an exterior surface of the column.

- and
- at least one prop coupled, directly or indirectly, to the at least one transverse beam, wherein the at least one transverse beam, the at least one strut, and the at least one prop are configured such that at least a portion of the forces borne by the at least one strut are transferred to the column through contact, directly or indirectly, with a section of the column having no anchoring elements piercing an exterior surface of the column.
