With PERI SCS, the loads from the fresh concrete pressure are transferred without formwork ties through the brackets into the climbing anchors of the previous concreting section.

SCS Climbing System

The climbing system for single-sided and two-sided formwork operations.

The SCS Climbing System is predominantly used for single-sided applications, i.e. with non-tied wall formwork. The loads resulting from the fresh concrete pressure are thereby transferred via the brackets into the previous concreting section by climbing anchors.

Typical applications for the SCS Climbing System are dams, locks, cooling towers, bunkers and strongroom vaults, pier heads and tunnels. With few components, the brackets are also suitable for forming with anchored wall formwork.

SCS Climbing System in action

  • Large, craneable climbing units due to the particularly high load-bearing capacity of the brackets with good utilization of the anchoring.

  • For this 280 m long, arch-shaped dam crest with variable inclinations, the climbing brackets carry the heavy loads.
    Safe, horizontal working areas

    Inclinable platforms can easily be adapted to suit structural elements of all pitches and geometries.

  • Cost-effective also for two-sided applications through a minimum of additional components for a high level of material utilization and reduced logistical requirements

    As with all PERI products, minimum components and clever systems enable efficient utilisation and reduced handling and logistics.

System variants

SCS 190 brackets are a cost-effective option with width of 1.90m requiring minimal space on site.  The formwork is simply tilted when striking.

SCS 250 with width of 2.5m and equipped with a formwork carriage. The wall formwork can be retracted up to 79cm (valid for MAXIMO and TRIO) or up to 63cm (valid for VARIO GT 24) without requiring a crane. This provides sufficient space for the reinforcement work, assembly of the scaffold anchoring as well shuttering and striking of box outs.

SCS Starter Brace Frame for the first casting segment, a starter brace frame is used while diagonal anchoring transfers the loads into the bottom slab.  This is designed in such a way that the strongback, spindle and formwork can also be used in the next casting segments with the climbing bracket.

SCS two-sided application with minimal components can also be used for anchored wall formwork up to 6m high. This ensures increased material utilisation and enhanced cost-effectiveness of the investment.
