The FFI Aluminium Table System is designed to reduce material quantity, erection and dismantling time as well as effort, subsequently increasing efficiency and reducing general construction time, materials and labour cost. All main components are manufactured from high grade aluminium alloy. This structural grade aluminium has exceptional properties being extremely light in weight but also heavy-duty and durable. When incorporating this into a design which utilizes standard components and allows several possible plan and elevation variables, it provides a lightweight solution for a large area slab formwork system. Requiring initial assembly only, the tables can be effectively used for typical floor slabs requiring multiple reuses, offering significant reduction in material quantities, and wear/damage. The most important feature of this system is its durability against weathering and corrosion and its ability to be used for a long period of time.
Due to the lightweight material and simple erection procedure, the tables can be swiftly and easily assembled in a one-time operation with minimum manpower and resources. The ability to perform this at off site, if required also gives more options when coordinating site operations and space usage.
The Aluminium Table Form Slab System is designed and manufactured in accordance with BS EN 12182 : 2008, code of practice for Falsework
