Formwork beams are designed in such a way that they are suitable for use under construction site conditions, such as, for example, the exposure to water and cement. Industrially manufactured formwork beams made of wood are intended for use in load-bearing stuctures and formwork, and may only be strained in the direction of the beam height.
Pfeifer's PF20 and PF20plus timber formwork beams are solid wall beams and are subject to monitoring level M according to EN13377 in conjunction with DIN 20000-2.
Monitoring and certification is carried out by the Materials Testing Institute of the University of Stuttgart. Certificate of conformity Reg. No.: BWU03-0639
These instructions for use serve to explain how the formwork beams should be used. However, Pfeifer's solid wall formwork beams must be independently tested by the user for suitability for the intended purpose. Compliance with legal standards in the respective country of use is the responsibility of the user.
