General Safety
Concrete Placement Safety
The Solo Form System is designed to withstand up to 1500 pounds per square foot as defined by ACI- 347. There are a number of factors that contribute to concrete pressure, none of which are under the control of Surebuilt. Concrete pressure is impacted by temperature, rate of placement, vibration methods, re-vibration, density, cement slump and admixtures.
Exceeding formwork designed pressures will result in damage to rental equipment and potential formwork failures. Form- work failures can result in injury, loss of life, loss of time and loss of money. Immediately following concrete placement, an effort should be made to clean concrete spillage from the formwork before it sets. This will greatly increase crew productiv- ity and reduce cleaning charges.
Stripping and Dismantling Formwork
Concrete formwork and/or shoring should not be stripped until the concrete has reached the proper design strength as specified by the contract documents or until the fresh concrete can sustain itself. Never attempt to break the bond between the concrete and the formwork with a crane. Attempts to break the bond with a crane may result in serious injury. The bond between the concrete and formwork should be broken by use of pry bars and wedges.
When dismantling formwork do not drop components or accessories from above. Place all panels, fillers, hardware and accessories in logical groups for easy transportation to the next location. Make sure careful attention is paid to how the dismantling operation impacts adjacent formwork. Unsecured formwork can fall and cause serious injury.
Climbing Rods
Climbing rods are standard on all 08’x08’, 04’x08’, 30”, and 24” wide panels. The climbing rods provide not only a great source for climbing the formwork, but they also exceed the required OSHA standard for fall protection. Prior to climbing the formwork, job site personnel must ensure that the formwork has been properly erected and secured. The formwork must be braced to resist any and all loads associated with wind and live load produced by job site conditions.
Transportation and Handling
The Solo Form System will be shipped to your job site in panel stacks of (10), which are banded together with nylon strap- ping. Careful consideration should be given prior to removing the banding, as uneven job site conditions will result in form movement once the banding has been removed. Panel stacks can safely and easily be moved by use of choker straps. These straps must have a safe working load of 1,500 lbs and an ultimate capacity of 7,500 lbs.
Note on Staging Returns:
Equipment should be cleaned & treated with formwork release prior to staging. Panels and fillers should be staged in stacks of (10) & banded together with nylon strapping. Accessories and hardware should be segregated and returned as they were shipped to the project. Steel banding is not permitted and will severely damage the formwork panels.

Clamps

Installing Formwork Ties
The Solo Form Clamp System Is designed to be used with the following types of ties:
• 15mm Pass Thru She Bolts
• 15mm Cone Style She Bolts
• 15mm Sleeved Rod 15mm Taper Ties
Taper Tie 1” to 5/8” (15mm) SWL – 19,100lb. Safety Factor: 2 to 1
Installing Formwork Ties
The system is designed for joined panels to share tie loads over common joints. The basic rule is to place a tie in all tie box locations that do not already have a similar tie in the adjacent panel. When sharing ties across panel joints, careful attention must be paid to the size and location of the tie washer plate. The tie washer plate must be large enough (5 1⁄2” diameter plate recommended) to support both panels. When sharing ties across panel joints, always be sure to place the tie in the larger of the two width panels.
Careful attention must be paid to install form tie hole plugs where ties are not being used. The form tie hole plug is not included with the system and can easily be purchased by contacting your local SOLO representative.

Formwork Erection
Formwork Erection
Prior to formwork erection, the job site personnel should treat the formwork with release agent. Failure to use form release will result in excessive concrete build up and subsequent cleaning costs.
1. Plan and locate a logical starting point for your formwork erection. Typically the best place to begin is in a corner. Fix the first panel to the footer by using the footing clip or by nailing the formwork to a sill plate thru the manufactured nail holes. Immediately brace the first panel back to the footer or contractor supplied concrete blocks. Bracing the formwork is an absolute requirement, failure to adequately brace formwork will result in injury.
2. Continue erecting formwork as depicted in the erection drawings and outlined in detail on pages 35 – 60 of the Application Guide. Pay careful attention to use appropriate tools when engaging clamps and aligning
formwork. Damage will result if the frame profile is struck with a hammer or if a clamp is re-
peatedly struck with a hammer. The maximum size hammer allowed for clamp connec-
tions is 28 oz. Formwork should be moved in final position by use of a pry bar. Never hit the formwork with a hammer in order to position the form,
misuse of this nature will result in damage to the formwork.

Formwork Erection – Closing the Wall
Formwork Erection – Closing the Wall
Now that you have set the first face of your wall, it is time to tie your rebar and set any required imbeds, sleeves and/or box outs.
1. Plan and locate a logical starting point for continuing your formwork erection. Typically the best place to start the formwork operation is in a corner. Place the first panel in the proper location and secure the panel by placing ties thru the tie holes, be sure to affix tie nuts to the ties on both sides of the wall. Next, secure the base of the panel to the footer.
2. Take the time to plumb the first panel. Locate the second panel and secure the panel joints with the proper amount of wedge clamps. The wedge clamp should first be ‘seated’ on the panel joint and then driven tight with a hammer. The maximum size hammer allowed for clamp connections is 28 oz.
3. Continue erecting the formwork in this manner until your form work operation is complete. Careful attention should be given to installing the proper amount of formwork ties. Failure to install the proper number of ties will result in formwork failure.
4. Careful consideration should be given to areas that have increased pressures on panel joints, such as outside corners, panel joints immediately adjacent to outside corners and panel joints immediately adjacent to formwork bulkheads. Follow the instructions on pages 14 to 16 for safely address- ing these areas of concern.
5. Once the formwork is erected and properly secured you may install your walkway brackets, scaffold planks and guard rail posts. The walkway brackets have a safe working load of 500 lbs each.
Concrete Placement
The Solo Form Clamp System is design to withstand 1500 pounds per square foot of concrete pressure as defined by ACI-347. Exceeding 1500 pounds per square foot of concrete pressure will result in damage and po- tential form failure. Form failure can result in injury and costly repair.
Careful attention should be paid to mix design, weather conditions and vibration.
Controlling concrete pressure is the responsibility of the contractor.
Immediately following concrete placement, every ef- fort to remove concrete spillage from the formwork is required. Failure to properly clean excess concrete from the formwork will result in increased cleaning costs.

Stripping and Dismantling Formwork
Stripping and Dismantling Formwork
Concrete formwork and/or shoring should not be stripped until the concrete has reached the proper design strength as specified by the contract documents or until the fresh concrete can support itself.
1. Plan and locate a logical starting point for your formwork stripping operation. Careful consideration should be given to the impact of formwork removal
on adjacent formwork and adjacent job site operations.
2. Begin stripping the formwork by dismantling the walkway bracket system.
3. Continue the operation by working on the unbraced side of the wall. Remove all formwork ties. Careful consideration should be given to removing formwork ties and the impact it may have on unbraced sections of wall. Refrain from hammering formwork ties from the concrete. Hammering the ends of formwork ties will cause damage and reduce productivity.
4. Begin removing clamps from panels in a repetitious manner. Remove clamps from the panel joint, while maintaining support of the unbraced / unclamped panel. Place loose hardware in logical transportation bins and stack formwork panels and fillers in like groups of ten.

Crane Handling Formwork Gang Assemblies
Crane Handling Formwork Gang Assemblies
Productivity can greatly be increase by assembling the formwork on the ground and crane shifting the equipment into final position. Careful consideration must be given to this practice, as crane time is typically at a premium rate on the job site.
1. Plan and locate a stable and level area for your assembly operation. This area should be within reach of the crane. It is recommended that assembly take place on a flat area such as a concrete slab or an area fitted with 2” x 6” lumber sleepers. Level sleepers should be located at all horizontal panel joints to provide a level surface to clamp adjacent panels together.
2. Place panels face down closely aligning panel joints. Connect panels together with the proper number of clamps at each panel joint. Information on clamp requirements can be found on pages 14 to 16.
3. Once your panels are clamped together, continue the operation by installing your walkway brackets, guardrail posts, lumber planks and lumber rails.
4. Continue the operation by attaching your bracing components. The Solo Form brace is telescopic and therefore can easily be moved as part of the formwork assembly.
Pipe Brace I Pipe Brace II Pipe Brace III
(7’-6” to 14’-0”) (14’-0” to 21’-0”) (22’-0” to 39’-0”)
5. Prior to moving the formwork, tag lines should be installed on the formwork assembly. Tag lines are required to keep the job site personnel safe and productive.
6. In order to lift the formwork assembly, crane hooks must be used. The Solo Crane Hook has a safe working load of 1600 lb. Crane Lifting devices should only be installed at a common panel joints, picking off of the frame profile alone will result in damage and potential injury.
7. Formwork assemblies should be shifted into position and se- cured to the footer by affixing the formwork brace and formwork panel to the footer. The formwork assembly should be plumbed prior to setting the next section of formwork.

Outside Corner Conditions
90° Corners
There are a number of ways to form 90 de- gree corners. The Flexible 90 Degree Inside Corner would be used in most inside corner applications that require a right angle. The outside corner panels can be made up of standard panels and fillers or a multi-pur- pose panel.
Standard Panels
In order to use standard panels or fillers for the outside formwork, you will need to have rigid outside corner angle available on the job site. The panel or filler dimension will be dictated by the wall thickness, plus the rigid corner thickness of 12”. For example, the 90 degree inside corner face is 12” wide, when added to a 12” wall, you would conclude a 24” outside filler panel is required. In order to lock the outside corner panels in place, you will require an outside corner. Pay care- ful attention to the details given on areas of increased formwork pressure.

90o Inside Corner Detail
The Solo Form Inside Corner is designed to be
rugged and easy to use. The all steel construction
will stand up to years of job site use. Our inside
corner is 12” x 12” and makes forming corner ap-
plications a snap! It is designed to remain a rigid
corner, until the steel lock-in bars are released.
Once the lock-in bars are released, the corner can
achieve a 1° draft. This flexible feature allows for 30″ easy stripping in corner locations.

The outside corner angle is made entirely of steel. It requires a clamped connection, but can also be bolted along the entire length of the corner. Please pay careful attention to the details given on areas of increased formwork pressure.
Be advised that as walls increase in thickness, transferable loads increase at the corners. Please see pages 14 to 16 for clamping de- tails.

90° Corners
There are a number of ways to form 90 degree cor- ners. The Flexible 90 Degree Inside Corner would be used in most inside corner applications that require a right angle. The outside corner panels can be made up of standard panels and fillers or a multi-purpose panel.
Multi-Purpose Panels
The Multi-Purpose (MP) Panel is pre-punched on 2” centers, which allows different wall thicknesses to be achieved by bolting thru the face sheet of the Multi- Purpose Panel with our Tying Claw.
Bi-directional hole placement means (MP) Panel Tie Hole Locations Allow for (Even) tying Locations in one direction and (Odd) in the other direction. The Multi-Purpose Panel can fit most wall thicknesses. With the use of shims, 1/2” Incremental Changes en- able for even more precise wall and column forming.

Using Wood Blocking
For job built wood fillers there are two approaches. For fillers 0” to 6” the contractor can use the adjust- able clamp and back it up with wales or he could drill 13/16” holes and bolt a wood filler using 3/4” coil rod bolts and nuts.
Note: Minimum of 4” using ad- justable clamps or bolts requires the same amount of connection as shown on page 14 to 16.

Bulkhead Forming Walls
Bulkhead Forming Walls
Bulkheads can be built in a number of ways. Here are a few of the standard approaches:
1. Utilizing an outside corner on each side of the wall and clamping in the appropriate filler size for the bulkhead.
2. Utilize job site material and build your own bulkhead from plywood and lumber. Please note that you will require a tie in the tie hole directly adjacent to the bulkhead to resist lateral forces.
3. Utilizing the SOLO Multi-Purpose panel, you can accommodate various wall thickness. Please see pages 50 to 51 for proper use of the Multi-Purpose panel.

Typical T-Wall Intersection Details
Typical T-Wall intersections can be formed using the 12” x 12” Inside Corner and the appropriate opposing panel and ties. If a filler panel or wood filler is required to make up the dimension, then it is necessary to wale the joint. In each applica- tion of this nature, please refer questions to your SOLO technical representative.

Pilaster Corners
Pilaster details can be formed fast and economi- cal. The pilaster corner is designed to be used in conjunction with standard panels or the multi- purpose panel. The form is designed to hinge on one side and rotate around the hinge point. Rota- tion is allowed to happen due to the unique rolled face of the inside corner. This rotation provides relief of 3⁄4”. The pilaster form dimensions are 12” x 8”. The 8” side goes on the pilaster face. Careful attention should be paid to inserting the pilaster locking bars prior to concrete placement.

Horizontal Panel Forming
Horizontal Panel Forming
• By laying panels on there sides, short walls, footings, and base mats can be formed using Solo Form.
• Through the use of the footing clip as a base anchor and tying across the top of the formwork, a variety of form-
ing applications can be accomplished.
• Note: Two ties and two footing clips are required per panel. The top tie bracket or existing tie hole can be used
depending on pour height.

Crane Lifting
The crane hook is designed to lift only Solo Form panels and fillers. This crane hook locks into place and must be manually release from the form by releasing the spring loaded latch. The maximum allowable working load on each crane hook is 1600 pounds.
Always attach the crane hook to the panel joint to prevent any movement of the crane hook. When panels are on their side, the crane hook may be placed over the cross member location.
Make sure to balance the crane hook locations and keep the lifting lines above the 60 degree minimum angle.
• All lifting hardware must be tested and maintained by the contractor
• All gangs must have a tag line attached to guide the formwork into place • Never stand under or near a gang during lifting
• Never use a the crane hook to lift gang in a horizontal configuration
• Never fly gangs with loose items on formwork
