Introduction
Elementary safety warnings
User target groups
▪This booklet is aimed at all persons who will be work-
ing with the Doka product or system that it describes.
It contains information on the standard design for
setting up this system, and on correct, compliant uti-
lisation of the system.
▪All persons working with the product described
herein must be familiar with the contents of this
booklet 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 up to date and
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 laws, standards and regulations
throughout the entire project and to take appropriate
additional or alternative workplace safety precau-
tions 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 booklet serves as the basis for the site-specific
hazard assessment, and for the instructions given to
users on how to prepare and utilise the system. It
does not substitute for these, however.
Remarks on this booklet
▪This 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.
Any safety accessories not shown in these illustra-
tions must still be used by the customer, in accord-
ance with the applicable rules and regulations.
▪Further safety instructions, especially warnings,
will be found in the individual sections of this
booklet!
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.
Regulations; industrial safety
▪All laws, Standards, industrial safety regulations and
other safety rules applying to the utilisation of our
products in the country and/or region in which you
are operating must be observed at all times.
▪If a person or object falls against, or into, the side-
guard component and/or any of its accessories, the
component affected may only continue in use after it
has been inspected and passed by an expert.

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 in accordance with the applica-
ble laws, standards and rules, under the direction
and supervision of suitably skilled persons.
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 at regular intervals
to ensure that they are secure and in full working
order.
In particular threaded connections and wedged con-
nections have to be checked and retightened as nec-
essary in accordance with activity on the jobsite and
especially after out-of-the-ordinary occurrences (e.g.
after a storm).
▪It is strictly forbidden to weld Doka products – in par-
ticular anchoring/tying components, suspension
components, connector components and castings
etc. – or otherwise subject them to heating.
Welding causes serious change in the microstruc-
ture of the materials from which these components
are made. This leads to a dramatic drop in the failure
load, representing a very great risk to safety.
The only articles which are allowed to be welded are
those for which the Doka literature expressly points
out that welding is permitted.
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 equipment/system must be assembled and
erected in accordance with the applicable laws,
Standards and rules by suitably skilled personnel of
the customer's, having regard to any and all required
safety inspections.
▪It is not permitted to modify Doka products; any such
modifications constitute a safety risk.
Closing the formwork
▪Doka products and systems must be set up so that
all loads acting upon them are safely transferred!
Pouring
▪Do not exceed the permitted fresh-concrete pres-
sures. Over-high pouring rates overload the form-
work, cause greater deflection and risk breakage.
Stripping out the formwork
▪Do not strip out the formwork until the concrete has
reached sufficient strength and the person in charge
has given the order for the formwork to be stripped
out!
▪When stripping out 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 stripping out the formwork, do not endanger
the stability of any part of the structure, or of any
scaffolding, 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 booklet!
Maintenance
▪Only original Doka components may be used as
spare parts. Repairs may only be carried out by the
manufacturer or authorised facilities.

Safety signs increase awareness
around safe anchoring on the
structure
Doka puts the quality and safety of all of its formwork
products first.
The most important part of a climbing scaffold is its
entirely safe anchorage to the structure.
The safety boards instruct the site crew on how to pre-
pare the positioning points and suspension points cor-
rectly. They measure 1000x750x2mm and are weath-
erproof.
The safety boards are available from Doka and must be
prominently positioned by customer in the main access
routes on the working and pouring platforms.
For more information, please contact your Doka techni-
cian.
☞Important note:
The first time of putting into service and the first
typical sequence of a hydraulic raising oper-
ation must all be supervised by a Doka Form-
work Instructor or other authorised technician.
☞▪All persons who are going to put the Auto-
matic climbing formwork Xclimb 60 into oper-
ation need special knowledge which can
only be passed on by skilled Doka personnel
in a special instruction and training pro-
gramme.
▪As proof that they have received such spe-
cial instruction, an 'OPERATION LICENCE'
is issued to persons who have undergone
this training course.
▪Persons who have not obtained this 'OPER-
ATION LICENCE' are not allowed to perform
hydraulic repositioning on the Automatic
climbing formwork Xclimb 60.

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!
Comparison of the safety concepts (example)
EdDesign value of effect of actions
(E ... effect; d ... design)

The "permissible values" communicated in
Doka documents (e.g.: Qpermissible = 70 kN)
do not correspond to the design values
(e.g.: VRd = 105 kN)!
➤Avoid any confusion between the two!
➤Our documents will continue to state the per-
missible values.
Allowance has been made for the following par-
tial factors:
F= 1.5
M, timber = 1.3
M, steel = 1.1
kmod = 0.9
In this way, all the design values needed in an
EC design calculation can be ascertained from
the permissible values.

Typical zone
During the climbing sequence, the units for reposition-
ing will be located in different casting sections.
To allow the crew to reposition the hydraulic compo-
nents in the horizontal, there needs to be a crossing
point from suspended platform '-2' to the adjacent sus-
pended platform '-1'.
To minimise the step up or down at this crossing point,
the height of suspended platform '-2' should approxi-
mate as closely as possible to the height of the casting
section.
