Elementary safety warnings
User target groups
● This User Information booklet (Method Statement) is
aimed at everyone who will be working with the Doka
product or system it describes. It contains informa-
tion on the standard design for setting up this sys-
tem, and on correct, compliant utilisation of the sys-
tem.
● All persons working with the product described
herein must be familiar with the contents of this man-
ual 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 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 OH&S (occupational health and safety)
rules throughout the entire project and to take appro-
priate additional or alternative workplace safety pre-
cautions 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 document serves as the basis for the site-spe-
cific hazard assessment, and for the instructions
given to users on how to prepare and utilise the sys-
tem. It does not substitute for these, however.
Remarks on this document
● This User Information booklet can also be used as a
generic method statement or incorporated with a
site-specific method statement.
● Many of the illustrations in this booklet show the
situation during formwork assembly and are
therefore not always complete from the safety
point of view.
● Further safety instructions, especially warnings,
will be found in the individual sections of this
document!

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.
Rules applying during all phases of
the assignment:
● The customer must ensure that this product is
erected and dismantled, reset and generally used for
its intended purpose under the direction and super-
vision of suitably skilled persons with the authority to
issue instructions.
These persons' mental and physical capacity must
not in any way be impaired by alcohol, medicines or
drugs.
● Doka products are technical working appliances
which are intended for industrial/commercial use
only, always in accordance with the respective Doka
User Information booklets or other technical docu-
mentation authored by Doka.
● The stability of all components and units must be
ensured during all phases of the construction work!
● The functional/technical instructions, safety warn-
ings and loading data must all be strictly observed
and complied with. Failure to do so can cause acci-
dents and severe (even life-threatening) damage to
health, as well as very great material damage.
● Fire-sources are not permitted anywhere near the
formwork. Heating appliances are only allowed if
properly and expertly used, and set up a safe dis-
tance away from the formwork.
● The work must take account of the weather condi-
tions (e.g. risk of slippage). In extreme weather,
steps must be taken in good time to safeguard the
equipment, and the immediate vicinity of the equip-
ment, and to protect employees.
● All connections must be checked regularly to ensure
that they still fit properly and are functioning cor-
rectly.
It is very important to check all screw-type connec-
tions and wedge-clamped joins whenever the con-
struction operations require (particularly after excep-
tional events such as storms), and to tighten them if
necessary.
User information Column formwork KS Xlife
Assembly
● The equipment/system must be inspected by the
customer before use, to ensure that it is in suitable
condition. Steps must be taken to rule out the use of
any components that are damaged, deformed, or
weakened due to wear, corrosion or rot.
● Combining our formwork systems with those of other
manufacturers could be dangerous, risking damage
to both health and property. If you intend to combine
different systems, please contact Doka for advice
first.
● The assembly work must be carried out by suitably
qualified employees of the client's.
● It is not permitted to modify Doka products; any such
modifications constitute a safety risk.
Erecting the formwork
● Doka products and systems must be set up in such
a way that all loads acting upon them are safely
transferred!
Pouring
● Do not exceed the permitted fresh-concrete pres-
sures. Excessively high pouring rates lead to form-
work overload, cause greater deflection and risk
causing breakage.
Striking the formwork
● Do not strike the formwork until the concrete has
reached sufficient strength and the person in charge
has given the order for the formwork to be struck!
● When striking the formwork, never use the crane to
break concrete cohesion. Use suitable tools such as
timber wedges, special pry-bars or system features
such as Framax stripping corners.
● When striking the formwork, do not endanger the
stability of any part of the structure, or of any scaf-
folding, platforms or formwork that is still in place!
Transporting, stacking and storing
● Observe all regulations applying to the handling of
formwork and scaffolding. In addition, the Doka
slinging means must be used - this is a mandatory
requirement.
● Remove any loose parts or fix them in place so that
they cannot be dislodged or fall free!
● All components must be stored safely, following all
the special Doka instructions given in the relevant
sections of this User Information booklet!
999746002 - 06/2010
Regulations; industrial safety
● Always observe all industrial safety regulations and
other safety rules applying to the application and uti-
lisation of our products in the country and/or region
in which you are operating.
Instruction as required by EN 13374:
● If a person or object falls against, or into, the side-
guard system and/or any of its accessories, the side-
guard component affected may only continue in use
after it has been inspected and passed by an expert.

Eurocodes at Doka
In Europe, a uniform series of Standards known as
Eurocodes (EC) was developed for the construction
field by the end of 2007. These are intended to provide
a uniform basis, valid throughout Europe, for product
specifications, tenders and mathematical verification.
The EC are the world's most highly developed Stand-
ards in the construction field.
In the Doka Group, the EC are to be used as standard
from the end of 2008. They will thus supersede the DIN
norms as the "Doka standard" for product design.
The widely used "Permissible stress design" (compar-
ing the actual stresses with the permissible stresses)
has been superseded by a new safety concept in the
EC.
The EC contrast the actions (loads) with the resistance
(capacity). The previous safety factor in the permissible
stresses is now divided into several partial factors. The
safety level remains the same!

Ed Rd

Ed Design value of effect of actions Rd Design value of the resistance

(E ... effect; d ... design) (R ... resistance; d ... design)
Internal forces from action Fd Design capacity of cross-section

Fk Characteristic value of an action Rk Characteristic value of the resistance
"actual load", service load e.g. moment resistance to yield stress
(k ... characteristic)
e.g. dead weight, live load, concrete pressure,
wind
γF Partial factor for actions γM Partial factor for a material property
(in terms of load; F ... force) (in terms of material; M...material)

The Ladder system XS provides a safe and reliable way

of climbing up and down column formworks:
● during pouring
● when placing reinforcing cages
● when opening/closing the formwork-halves
● when attaching/detaching the formwork-halves

The main features:
● This pre-assembled, ready-to-use platform ensures
convenient and safe working on column formworks.
It can be used on columns of any cross-section.
● The slinging points recessed into the decking make
it a quick and easy job to lift the platform by crane.
Only one column formwork platform can be used on
each column!
● Because the platform can be re-suspended so
quickly, it can "migrate" from one formwork to the
next during concreting. This means that one platform
is sufficient to serve several column formworks.
● The practical swing-out side railings make it easy to
get on or off the platform. Both the side railings can
be fixed in either the open or closed position.
The railings are locked in place automatically.
The column-formwork platform is now ready for use.
Note:
When folding the platform back down, first fold down
the rear railings, and then the side ones.
