Bygging-Uddemann’s Heavy Duty slipform system has recently completed the slipform operation of a tall tower in Karlskrona Sweden.

Our Heavy Duty Slipform system is developed for high-rise projects as it can carry a lot of extra load together with the slipform, such as winches, concrete booms, cranes and lots of stored reinforcement compare with traditional slipform.
Our Heavy Duty Slipform system is raised using our strongest jack, the R72 (22-ton jack) which can be positioned almost anywhere due to a very strong upper deck structure which support the complete slipform. As the number of jacks are reduced with almost 80% due to the high capacity it will also reduce time required for operation (less adjustments, maintenance, number of hydraulic components, less number of jack tubes to be recovered, etc).
Another strength of this set-up is the heavy-duty yokes, which allows for large cast-in items, as the distance between yokes are up to 3,5m, instead of more common 1,5-2m distance.
