Symons Space-Lift™

The Symons Space-Lift™ is a jump formwork system optimized for concrete shear wall applications for straight or radius walls. The entire assembly remains anchored to the wall during the forming operation. The space lift system is made up of frame components and a carriage assembly which supports the forming equipment and crew. Work platforms provide safe access during setting, placing, stripping and finishing. Rollback carriages allow the gang form to be retracted from the wall without being removed.
