// STAFF TRAINING
ULMAs philosophy departs from the idea of team work, because it is the promotion of staff coaching that encourages the personal and professional development of workers. This is how we contribute to the progress of the enterprise and improve internal knowledge management. We devote signicant resources to the training of different areas of the company, which translates into a high specialisation of our teams. This occurs inside but also outside of ULMA for the benet of other companies and groups, because the knowledge acquired in the application of our own particular technologies in projects is passed on to others in courses and seminars hold by ULMA.

This is how we are in ULMA. Professionals and people. A group of companies that wants to participate, in front line, in the transformation the world is experiencing today. We want to contribute to this change by offering solutions and knowledge with our products and by providing state-ofthe-art technology. And we want to do it in a manner which is sustainable and respectful.

With the environment and with the people. Because only if we join a vision of the future to responsibility, we will succeed.

FROM THE BEGINNING OF YOUR PROJECTS


// SAFETY RELIABILITY

SAFETY IN CONSTRUCTION WORK ENSURES THE HEALTH AND PHYSICAL INTEGRITY OF ALL.
Safety is one of ULMAs main foundations. Construction work is inherently dangerous and, as part of our commitment, we design systems which ensure workers safety in the handling of our products and their erection on the building site. Our every day ambition is to ensure full personal and collective protection of the worker and third parties. The extensive use of safety measures both at the planning stage and during work is given as advice to all customers. All our systems are equipped with safety features for both assembly and use on the building site. We study, design and develop all formwork, scaffolding and shoring systems as well as any other products of our range with respect to two fundamental criteria: Costs and performance. Highest safety standards.

WE LISTEN TO YOU
To make your idea into reality
We get involved right from the beginning. We sit down with you and seek the best solution for your project. The goal is clear: to offer, at the lowest cost, the maximum product performance for your project. In short, optimise your results.

THE PROJECT

In-depth study of the project


We have the most qualied team and the best software for engineering solutions to the most complex projects. On the basis of a specic and profound technical study, we obtain the best combination of suitable products to optimise performance and efciency.

02

Because thorough planning saves money


Our technical department studies the specic requirements of the project, materials and their rotation, according to the time of each construction stage. We design an optimal solution and limit your costs to a minimum. The technical team gets the best planning, saving time and labour. The studies give the team of engineers an accurate view of the entire project. Together with the customer, we analyse and dene the most appropriate material supply sequence and on-site assistance for optimal project execution at all stages. Grafsystem, a software developed by ULMA, offers all possible solutions for projects in the application of all products of our range. Fast and easy to use, this system produces assembly drawings, calculates an optimised budget and determines the required material for each stage. ULMAs Technical Department is capable of offering a solution to any issues regarding the project, be it for vertical or horizontal structures. In short, by simply entering the desired geometry of the structure, we get the best solution for each case.

SIMPLE SOLUTIONS TO COMPLEX PROJECTS


The beginning, with pencil and paper

Even the most complex projects have a simple start, the moment when the ideas come up in your mind. In ULMA, we work with our customers right from the start, so the project solution is jointly managed and evolved during its implementation. It is the idea expressed by those pencil strokes that we draw on a piece of paper, which outlines the solution, that solution that simplies all problems.

ON-SITE ASSISTANCE
We are right there, on-site
In addition to dening and developing the project with the customer, we give on-site advice and assistance. We organise the layout and assembly of all products to ensure the reliability and effectiveness with which they have been designed. We also provide the necessary documentation for application and assembly of all products. Involvement is our great added value. It is a key element of our service. In each project, the proximity of ULMA professional staff ensures the application of all the know-how generated by our teams. From technical advice over assembly supervision to the job completion, the monitoring of works is absolute.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE


Always ready
ULMA products work well at all times. Because, in addition to being strong and durable, all rental materials undergo continuous servicing and repair in our maintenance centres. This way, we offer to all our customers best material performance.

06

05

LOGISTICS
Timely equipment supply of components is essential for project success
We have big strategic centres all over the world. One of them is the Toledo Logistics Centre (220,000 m2) in Spain, starting point for all major deliveries. Equipped with large operation facilities, its advanced means and IT system ensure best management and control of the service given to each job. The products are arranged as palletised modules and in boxes. This eases storage, loading, transport and shipping. This task is carried out by the big logistic centres or from the local warehouses of the country where ULMA is present. From the latter, we supply all immediate material requirements of the projects of our customers, be it for rental or sales.

07

CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

Learning and applying


The analysis and evaluation of the entire process enables us to grow and apply the learnt in future projects. We always want to provide service at its best. So we seek continuous improvement of our equipment and processes. We are totally committed to provide you with the best solution for your project from the beginning on. We are demanding in our work. Supply of pre-assembled equipment according to agreed deadlines backed by our high logistics capabilities, and ad-hoc services for any unforeseen circunstances makes us a powerful service provider to our customers. Taken together infrastructure, professional staff, logistics and stocks - material delivery in the shortest possible time is ensured. By having a great goal: the design of solutions in response to the new demands of our customers and of society in general, worldwide.

ENKOFORM V-100 Timber Beam Wall Formwork


FLEXIBLE, VERSATILE, COMPLETE

BENEfITS
ENKOFORM VMK. Timber beam wall formwork based on MK system. The difference is the use of MK walers in the latter.

Vertical structure with ENKOFORM VMK

APPLICATIONS AND SOLUTIONS


Formwork solution for all geometries of vertical concrete structures. Great efciency and excellent concrete nishing for any vertical structure in building construction and civil works: walls, piers, abutments, columns, etc. Requires pre-assembly of panels (steel walers and timber beams which hold the plywood). The panels are made to measure depending on requirements.

1 Climbing systems 2 Single-sided formwork support 3 Columns 4 Pilaster - 90 wall intersections

11

BENEfITS
Versatile and exible for any geometry. Excellent concrete nishing. Easy arrangement to obtain the wall pattern dened by the architect. Optimised formwork with regard to dened concrete pressure. Easily replaceable plywood in case of damage. Easy jointing of walers and timber beams. Common standard accessories shared with other ULMA formwork systems: push-pull props, climbing brackets, anchors, etc. Lower transport volume when moving the items in dismantled state. Minimum number of llers between panels. Guaranteed safety. Easy-to-assemble safety items. Simple and tight panel joints with Panel Connectors. Exerts a correcting function by absorbing possible deviations during assembly. Less panel edge damage due to the design of the Panel Connector and Pin (its conical part brings the panels closer together and its cylindrical part xes their position).

Bridge construction by incremental launching with ENKOFORM HMK Each stretch of the bridge deck is manufactured in a xed pre-fabri- cation area behind the abutment. Each new stretch is joined to the previously built and pushed by a hydraulic system, so that the bridge deck is sliding on the piers previously built. It is used for the construction of very long pre-stressed bridges of constant section and many spans. The radius of curvature must be constant. Benets Big part of the work centres on the xed pre-fabrication areas for the manufacture of the deck stretch. Shoring system use reduced to the minimum.

Multi-Purpose Palace of Gran Canaria, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain


ULMA FACING A MOMENTOUS PROJECT FOR THE CANARY ISLANDS

Description
The Canary Islands designated as secondary venue of the 2014 Basketball World Cup began the islands most important public works. With a seating capacity between 10,000 and 11,000, its multi-purpose nature will allow hosting both sporting (basketball, volleyball, tennis, etc.) and cultural events. Its rectangular dimensions are 123.5 x 93 m, with a height of 24 m and a depth between -5.4 and -12.36 m. The building faades are 20 cm thick concrete walls, supported on buttresses of 0.5 x 3.8 m every 6 m. The width of the buttresses decreases before reaching the top. Thus, the steel trusses that sustain the roof will rest on these buttresses.

ULMA Solution
Main conditions for the construction of the walls: Observing the pattern dened for the joints in front view, both vertical and horizontal. This was done with ENKOFORM V-100 formwork. Align the tie holes horizontally and vertically. Avoid bigger holes due to climbing cones. The Cone AWF is placed at the position of a tie rod. At removal it leaves a mark identical to the one of a tie rod. Wall climbing: Outside: 21 m2 big formwork units on climbing bracket. Inside: internal climbing platform supporting on folding brackets xed on the buttresses.

European Solidarity Center, Gdask, Poland


SOLUTIONS FOR INCLINED WALLS OF GREAT HEIGHT

Description
With 25,000 m2 and a capacity of 200,000 m3, this project is the architectural expression of a historic change. The symbolism of the building is evident in its design, which includes inclined walls every 12 m, all in the same direction. Very soon, The Solidarity Center will become the centre for European cultural and social organisations of the historic Solidarity movement in Poland and Europe. The building, designed as a monolithic structure, required bold solutions for both design and materials: heights ranging between 19.5 and 30 m, inclined walls and nding a building capable of integrating into a shipyards environment.

ULMA Solution
Faced with an inclination of 6.5 and outer walls of great height, ULMA designed a unique solution with vertical modular formwork for tiers of 8 m and working platforms that ensured workplace safety. The uniqueness of this project and the high concrete pressure required the reinforcement of the formwork with high load capacity ALUPROPs. The side panel holes ease quick and 100% leak-tight corner solutions, suiting the peculiar shape. This process allowed of shorter construction time without sacricing the high safety standards. With only two systems, the large beams and slabs of the John Paul II Hall were built. The shoring of the two high oors of the hall was done with T-60 towers and ENKOFLEX slab formwork.

Lookout Tower of the Trade Fair and Congress Center, Kielce, Poland
MK SYSTEM: A SINGLE SOLUTION FOR COMPLEX STRUCTURES

Description
This building for big events has four oors and an underground car park. Its most striking architectural feature is the 44 m high lookout tower with banquet hall.

ULMA Solution
The ATR self-climbing system was used for the construction of the two 90 cm thick outside walls. The other two walls with a thickness of 15 and 25 cm and protruding structural steel parts did not suit the use of the ATR system. The self-climbing systems were used with MK trusses to make large working platforms. In the reverse direction, the platforms for the walls with protruding steel structures were made with MK trusses. The entire system rested on four self-climbing brackets, which made up a large working platform and held the wall formwork. MK structure and ATR system were simultaneously moved with the hydraulic system to the different pouring stages requiring only 15 to 20 minutes for climbing from one level to the next. The interior of the structure was built with the KSP Shaft Platform hoisted by crane and making up the formwork support platform. BRIO Modular Scaffolding ensured the vertical communication between different levels.

ECE Thier Areal, Dortmund, Germany


SUPPLY OF CUSTOMISED MATERIAL

Description
Located in the centre of Dortmund, the ECE is one of the largest and most advanced shopping centres of Germany. Its 33,000 m2 oor area are distributed over 4 levels. It has 5,000 m2 ofce area, three parking levels (700 spaces) and 150 shops and restaurants. 5,000 m3 of concrete and 7,400 t of steel reinforcement were required for its construction.

ULMA Solution
Both in design and construction, the project demanded a thorough work which resulted in a great success. Given the limited space available, the material supply was a key factor in the whole process, with quantities and times adapted to the pace of work. The ORMA vertical formwork was capable of precisely adjusting to the construction of walls and staircases. Its wide range of panels enables the easy assembly and jointing of large sets, in addition to solutions of corner not 90 with few accessories. Several walls required fair-faced nishing. The curved walls are an example for this and were built with circular formwork systems adjusting precisely and without effort to any radio. Column heads were built with F-4 MAX Hinged Column Formwork and movable VR Tables. The VM-20 beams covered with 21 mm plywood ensure a high efciency for large areas and repetitive solutions. The slabs were built with ENKOFLEX shored at great heights on EP Props and T-60.

Sport City, Rome, Italy


A RACE TO THE FUTURE

Description
Designed by the architect Santiago Calatrava, the Citt dello Sport includes soccer elds, running tracks, shops, ofces, apartments, libraries, the new Palazzo dello Sport, the swimming stadium and the Rectors Ofce of the University of Tor Vergata. This project was a great challenge because of its unique architectural features and the complex design of the new Roman swimming stadium.

ULMA Solution
The requirements for the fair-faced concrete nishing were very strict. Coherence and continuity of the wall design required the tie holes to be in a regular vertical pattern and the plywood panel of a size of 3 x 1.25 m. The versatility of the MK System and the formwork optimisation according to the type of concrete achieved to full these high demands. The 13 m high surrounding wall was built in a creative way with different types of openings, both as well as overlapping. A spectacular building in whose interior there are almost 190 between 30 and 70 m long arches. The backbone of it is a 130 m longitudinal arch which supports the steel and glass roof. Along with formwork of the MK System, 12,000 m2 slab and 4,000 m2 vertical formwork were supplied.

MaRs Centre, Toronto, Canada


MODULAR FORMWORK FOR MAXIMUM COST EFFICIENCY

Description
Located in Torontos Discovery district, the Phase II of the MaRs Centre will add 74,000 m2 to the existing complex. It is a 20-storey tower at the west wing housing laboratories (60%) and ofces (40%). Moreover, it will include a two-level underground parking. After this project, MaRs will have doubled its surface and incorporate the largest centre of science, technology and research in Canada.

ULMA Solution
Shafts were built with ORMA vertical formwork and Easy-Stripping Corner Panel, suitable to speed up and increase the efciency of shaft formwork erection and dismantling. The lightness of the MEGALITE formwork eased the wall construction. The lightweight, safe, high-performance CC-4 aluminium formwork was used for slabs (30 cm) and beams (25 cm). Large formwork tables were also used. The ALUPROP, light and suitable for heavy loads, was used for the propping and back-propping of 2.75 m standard height of oors.

Tower Bridge Shopping Centre, Sao Paulo, Brazil


ON-SITE ADVICE FROM START TO FINISH

Description
Its 55,000 m2 of area for rent converts Tower Bridge into one of the largest shopping centres in the metropolitan area. The building periphery is divided into three sections of about 2,000 m2, with 5 basement levels. The projected area of the building is 2,400 m2, to a total built oor area of 138,000 m2.

ULMA Solution
The project included aspects such as passageways for the movement of people or perimeter working platforms. High efciency construction systems were chosen with pouring cycles of 7 days for an area of 2,400 m2. This required the SP Prop as back-propping system of high load capacity. G Shoring suited the formwork support at great heights and enabled the early removal of the slab formwork for the use of the same material in successive stages. The foundation was built with COMAIN Handset Formwork. ULMA maintained its ongoing support by the technical training of workers and by monitoring the entire construction process.

National Stadium, Brasilia, Brazil


HIGH PERFORMANCE IN A STRINGENT CONSTRUCTION PROCESS

Description
Best known as Mane Garrincha, it will be one of the main venues of the 2014 Football World Cup. After the demolition of the old stadium, this new sports complex will accommodate more than 71,000 spectators in an area of 188,000 m2. This project faces several challenges: nearly 5,000 tons of auxiliary products, in a construction process with less labour and shorter lead times, always maintaining a high level of safety.

ULMA Solution
The peculiarity of this stadium resides in the 288 columns of 46 m height across the entire complex, on which the compression ring rests. For the construction of the circular columns of 1.20 to 1.50 m diameter, CLR formwork has been used in successive tiers of 4 m. The BRIO system used as working platforms, ensured workers safety at great height. The construction of the compression ring (22 m width and 46 m height) meant a great technical challenge. This is where ULMA as a cutting-edge company for formwork technology comes in value. MK Structures, resting on climbing brackets anchored to the 288 columns, supported the compression ring, which avoided the use of a large volume of conventional shoring and resulted in considerable time and cost savings. For the construction of the grandstand beams (12 m height), MK Structures on BRIO Shoring were used. The foundations were large repetitive blocks. The versatility of the COMAIN formwork suited this job. As shoring system for slabs and beams, ALUPROPs have provided lightness and adaptability to the different slab heights. The Trolley VR has facilitated the transfer of BRIO and ALUPROP towers to each new pouring stage thus avoiding their dismantling. Thereby the efciency of the project could be increased, and the material input reduced. The production manager of the builder consortium, Marcos Aparecido Conchis, states that the expectations set on ULMA have been exceeded, with a high quality service, continuous advice and strict compliance with supply commitments.

National Confederation of Commerce and Tourism, Brasilia, Brazil


VR TABLES: MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE ON SITE

Description
Powered by the National Confederation of Commerce of Brazil, this business complex of 154,465 m2 includes four ofce towers of more than 17 oors. Each building will include a wide hall with double-height ceilings, auditorium, conference rooms, leisure areas, etc. Its unique design is combined with sustainability. This is why; it is one of the rst buildings of Brazil to be certied LEED, Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design, issued by the US Green Building Council.

ULMA Solution
The new Head VR SP/EP, a new application of the VR Table system, meant a great success. This lighter head can be used with a very light prop, the SP. The system was used from the third oor on, on at slabs without interference from drop or perimeter beams. This solution has reduced the cost of labour, since the tables are moved horizontally with the Trolley VR and vertically by crane, without the need for dismantling the assembly. For best results, different formwork systems have been combined: COMAIN modular formwork for walls and piers, while RAPID was used for solid slabs and large spans. BRIO Ladder eased the access to the different oors. For reasons of geometry, ULMA has gone for the safety and efciency of the table system instead of conventional systems.

Control Tower at Dakar International Airport, Senegal


SIMPLE SOLUTIONS WITH CLIMBING SYSTEMS

Description
Also present in this part of the world, ULMA undertook the construction of the 49.74 m high control tower at the Dakar International Airport. With a nominal outside diameter of 7.8 m and 7 m inside diameter, the tower involves six different sections, due to the disappearance of walls and beams in some cases, and to the variation of the outside diameter.

ULMA Solution
The outside formwork consisted of four ENKOFORM V-100 panels supported on CR-250 climbing brackets. The inside formwork had 26 panels, some on climbing brackets and others on KSP platforms, due to the lack of space for the climbing brackets. The formwork design made it possible to withstand concrete pressures of up to 60 kN/m2. The largest outside formwork unit (formwork and base structure) weighed 5,600 kg, while the largest inside unit reached 3,600 kg. This solution allowed for the lifting of each set independently and by crane.

With a height of 18 m and 49,000 m2 oor space, it is a compact block which makes movements of staff faster to optimise resources and minimise operating expense. The hospital consists of two parallel rectangular buildings in H-shape of 120 x 140 m length. Each of the four oors extends to 70,000 m2 with a slab height between 3.84 and 4.84 m. Volume: 195,500 m3 Floors: 1+4 Construction time: 2 months for the parking + 3 months for the oors.

ULMA Solution
The CC-4 aluminium formwork with EP Props offered the perfect solution for extensive oors without obstacles and with a minimum number of evenly distributed columns. In total and to meet the agreed deadlines, 8,000 m2 of CC-4 aluminium formwork and 2,300 EP Props were used. Due to the systems reduced requirement of props per m2, large working areas could be created and assembly time saved. The CC-4s great efciency lies in the lightness of its aluminium proles and the sophistication of the system. Assembly is carried out from inside by sliding the panels into place on the beam grid. Thus, a single worker, from a single location was able to erect up to 10 m2 of formwork. In accordance with safety standards, the BRIO system provides perimeter protection and prevents any falls from height. The experience of ULMAs Italian subsidiary in large-scale projects has ensured the timely delivery of material, contributing its knowhow throughout the entire building process.

The project involves the connection between the bypass road of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and the motorway GC.2 in the stretch of Tamaraceite-Tenoya-Arucas-Costa. The 113 m high Barranco de Tenoya viaduct is one of the highest viaducts on piers of Spain. The deck is 530 m long and has three central spans of 128 m, two lateral spans of 73 m and a width of 27 m. The piers reach a height of 115 m.

ULMA Solution
For the construction of the bridge, the balanced cantilever method was used, growing from the piers towards the centre of the span. The variable section of piers 2 and 3 was built with the ATR system which had to be adapted to the changing shape at each new pouring stage. The constant section piers 1 and 4 were built with Climbing System 2000. And high load capacity G Heavy Duty Bracket suited the construction of the pier segments.

Expressway S-69 Bielsko Biaa - ywiec - Zwardo, Poland


MAXIMUM VERSATILITY WITH THE MK SYSTEM

Description
This is the longest expressway of Poland that links the area of Bielsko-Biala with Slovakia. The stretch between this Polish city to ywiec is a dual carriageway road, while the Slovakian part will be only single lane with the possibility to add a second one in the future. The project comprises the construction of the Krakowska exit having a diamond shape and the Mikuszowice exit being irregularly structured, and includes the redesign of the road to suit the requirements of the new expressway. The primary structure is the overpass WS10. With four lanes and pre-stressed double beam bridge deck, it reaches a length of 460 m. ULMA always provided the most cost-effective solution for all structures.

ULMA Solution
The ENKOFORM HMK system was chosen as bridge deck formwork capable of adapting to any section with standard system components. The Shoring System T-60 supported the formwork at more than 15 m height. It notably speeded up the construction process, and secured the load transfer. The overpass WS10 over the Biala River bridges a 24 m span with proles resting on MK towers adapting to the specic geometries. Due to the characteristics of the structure, the concrete placement was done in 20 stages (5 stages per each lane). The longest bridge deck section poured was 159.3 m, and 60 m the shortest. All level crossings, road entrances and exits were abolished; instead several overpasses with spans of up to 15 m were designed and solved with ALUPROPs for an unhindered ow of trafc.

Maria Skodowska - Curie Bridge, Warsaw, Poland


HIGH PACE IN BRIDGE WING CONSTRUCTION

Description
The 795 m long bridge has three separate carriageways: two of 13.36 m width for vehicular trafc and a third of 12.76 m for trams, pedestrians and bicycles. The bridge has 10 between 45 and 160 m long spans.

ULMA Solution
ULMA supplied the material for the construction of the steelconcrete composite bridge deck, abutments, piers, overpasses and retaining walls. A form carrier consisting of standard MK system components was used to build the bridge deck wings. This structure split into 3 modules to ease the assembly provides the necessary stiffness yet without making the structure excessively heavy. Moreover, it offers a standard custom made solution and thus ensures maximum cost-effectiveness. To increase the pace of works, 12 form carriers of 25 m length each were used. Concrete pouring starts at the centre of the span with two form carriers moving in opposite direction towards the respective piers. Thus in each stage 25 m long stretches are poured. The form carrier moves forward to the next bridge segment by means of a simple wheel system. The light weight of the MK system components eases the manual assembly of large structures. This way, the use of the crane remains reserved to the lifting of structure modules previously assembled on the ground. This was a fundamental factor to reduce costs of the project.

Intersection of A1 and A2 Motorways, Strykow, Poland


EFFICIENT LOGISTICS IN SIMULTANEOUS CONSTRUCTION OF STRUCTURES

Description
Located in Strykow, the junction of motorways A1 (northsouth) and A2 (east-west) is the second largest of Poland with estimated 130 thousand vehicles per day. In addition to the construction of the A1 and A2 stretches (5 and 2.5 km), an 18 km access road, 10 viaducts, sewerage under the motorways, connecting roads and exits had to be built.

ULMA Solution
Apart from providing formwork for all structures of the project, ULMA took on the challenge of carrying out all jobs simultaneously and in shorter lead limes. The largest structure of this intersection is the Viaduct WA-244 on A1, over the A2. Its 3 sections, with 18 m wide and 100 m long carriageways, are supported at its ends and in the middle of the span. ALUPROP and T-60 towers with heights between 7.2 and 8.5 m were used as shoring along most of the viaduct length. ENKOFORM HMK was used to form the bridge deck, and modular formwork for the abutments.

Motorway A4, Overpass E118, Tarnw - Dbica, Poland


LARGE INFRASTRUCTURE WORKS IN RECORD TIME

Description
Located in the south of Poland, the 34 km long Motorway A4 connects the cities of Krys and Debica. The bridge over the Wisoka River or Overpass E118 is with 1,350 m the largest structure of the motorway. This overpass is divided into three sections and has two carriageways, with one being straight and the other being a constant curve.

ULMA Solution
The characteristics of the design required the use of two construction systems: the conventional with T-60 and OC shoring structures, and the incremental launching method. This was the rst time that a bridge with a deck of two inner cross-sectional hollows has been constructed in Poland. The proposed solution made it possible to build stretches of 30 m a week, so that the construction time for each segment was reduced by 50%. ULMA designed and supplied the formwork for the entire concrete structure as well as for the four xed pre-fabrication areas where the incrementally launched segments were manufactured. The bottom of the bridge deck was built with the MK System covered with plywood. MK offers solutions for this, as for many other types of applications with the use of standard material. As wing formwork, ENKOFORM H-120 beam-based formwork was used. The bridge deck construction was carried out in two stages. The rst stage consisted in the pouring of the lower slab of the bridge deck together with the side walls. In the second stage, the top slab was poured. The solution offered by ULMA allowed building the 32 segments, each of 30 m, of both bridge decks in weekly cycles. To ease the works under adverse weather conditions and improve the hardening of the concrete, a temporary roof covering xed pre-fabrication areas was installed. This was done with BRIO Modular Scaffolding supported on MK towers and moved on rails. For this stage no shoring between piers was required. This allowed developing a simple procedure, without powerful auxiliary means and a minimum effect on the environment. ULMA did not only get involved in the construction of this bridge, but supplied material for other 13 civil engineering structures on the A4 Motorway.

Bridge on Motorway S3, Midzyrzecz, Poland


FORMWORK FOR INCREMENTALLY LAUNCHED BRIDGE

Description
This bridge is part of the Motorway S3, which will link the Baltic Sea with the Czech Republic. It is a long bridge with two independent carriageways built with the incremental launching method in 17 pre-stressed stretches of up to 45 m long.

ULMA Solution
For the construction of the bottom, the wings and the slab of the viaduct, ENKOFORM HMK was used. The box height in the centre is 3 m with a variable slab thickness ranging between 25 and 48 cm. The road runs at 14 m height with a constant curvature radius of 1,200 m. Both structures were divided into 34 segments of up to 22.5 m which were then incrementally launched. Each carriageway reached nearly 15,000 tons of weight in the last stage of assembly. The incremental launching method bases much work at one of the abutments, apart from reducing requirements for shoring solutions.

Bridge over the Rudavoi River, Belluno, Italy


MAXIMUM EFFECTIVENESS IN INCLINED GEOMETRIES

Description
This variable section bridge, located to the north of Italy, has three spans and was poured in situ. Project details: Bridge length: 180 m Bridge width: 11.5 m Deck thickness: between 1.5 m and 8 m Transverse inclination: 3.5% Radius: 140 m Pier height: 5 m Distance between piers: 100 m

ULMA Solution
After pier construction, the bridge was completed in three stages. The 70 m long stretch between the abutment and the pier was built with horizontal beam-based formwork and full shoring. After concrete hardening and falsework removal, the same material was used in a symmetrical manner between the abutment and the pier on the other side of the bridge. A high capacity shoring tower on a temporary footing supported the central part of the bridge (40 m). The distance between bearings was spanned with high load capacity trusses carrying the formwork. The specic curvature and the inclined geometry were formed with spindles adjustable into any direction on the shoring. This ensured a perfect adjustment without using wood templates, which brought high cost savings.

Plati Viaduct, Calabria, Italy


LIGHT STRUCTURES FOR COMPOSITE BRIDGES

Description
The Plati Viaduct steel-concrete composite bridge is part of the Bovolino - Bagnara motorway in Calabria, southern region of Italy. This project consists of two 320 m and 400 m long viaducts.

ULMA Solution
ULMA contributed an innovative solution for the construction of the reinforced concrete slab of the composite bridge deck. Two longitudinal steel beams with heights between 2 and 2.3 m were used to suit the curvature of the bridge deck girder. The 12 m wide and between 22 cm (at wing edges and central span) and 35 cm (on steel beams) thick bridge deck was built with a form carrier with structural trusses and beam-based formwork. The 24 m long form carrier eased weekly pouring cycles of 22 m. The form carrier structure has eight transverse trusses which carry the wing formwork. It moreover includes working platforms and two trusses supporting the structure that moves on rails. ULMA also supplied steel formwork for the construction of the 38 circular piers. These were built in three stages with climbing brackets and trusses that sustain the formwork and that moreover enable to build pier caps in a single pour.

Pylon on Bucharest Ring Road, Romania


CONSTRUCTION OF INCLINED VARIABLE SECTION PYLON

Description
The project is an overpass over the railway in Otopeni, on Bucharests ring road. The pylon is 47.65 m high with two legs 20 inclined with respect to the vertical, which are horizontally linked by two beams at 25 m and 41 m, respectively. The curved legs are of variable section and 28.3 m high. From there on, the section of both arms is constant.

ULMA Solution
ENKOFORM V-100 formwork was applied. The four outside panels were supported on CR-250 Climbing Brackets. Horizontal working platforms ensured workers safety. Each set, consisting of one panel on two braced climbing brackets, was lifted independently by crane to be transferred to the next pouring stage. The panels were held with 15 tie rods to withstand up to 40 kN/m2 of concrete pressure. BRIO Modular Scaffolding provided access stairs and working platforms to the pylon.

Bridge Over the Grand River, Ontario, Canada


ON-SITE ENGINEERING AND ASSISTANCE

Description
The bridge over the Grand River links for the rst time since 1963 two economically important areas, Kitchener and Cambridge. It moreover enhances the connection with one of the major motorways of the country, the 401. With a length of 247 m, it consists of 4 spans. The largest one, 95 m, bridges the Grand River. The construction method of on-site incremental segments for the longest span turned the bridge into the rst one built in Ontario with this technique since the 80s. ULMA put the most advanced system and experienced specialists in the application of the system at the disposal of the customer to construct a bridge suiting a mountainous geography with a technique rather popular in Europe.

ULMA Solution
In this case, two Form Carriers CVS were used. They were placed at opposite ends, each one starting off from one pier of the span and moving forward simultaneously towards each other until the centre of the span. A total of 19 segments of 4.75 m length each were built. The exibility and easy adaptation of the system provided a powerful solution for the continuously varying bridge deck sections in each advance of the form carrier. ULMA, in addition to the supply of the material, provided engineering service, pre-assembly of the structure and on-site assistance. Based on the modular concept of the MK System, this form carrier adapted well to the different cross-sections. The inside and outside formwork was independent from each other which allowed of shorter work cycles. The use of MK standard components reduces the weight and costs of the equipment compared to other custom-made form carriers. The piers of a height of 15 to 18 m were built with ORMA formwork on CR-250 Climbing Brackets. Each set of formwork with large working platforms is moved in a single crane lift to the next building stage.

Bypass Road and Motorway Port Of El Salvador, Brazil


CANTILEVER SHORING SOLUTION WITH MK SYSTEM

Description
This project is part of the Growth Acceleration Program (PAC) funded by the Government of the State of Bahia. The Road BR-324 links the State of Maranhao with the port of El Salvador. This is one of the most important roads of the State of Bahia and includes the construction of several overpasses. The Viaduct 16 with a steel concrete composite bridge deck of 260 m length and 10.5 m width runs through wetlands as well as over a motorway with spans reaching 40 m. To avoid the erection of shoring structures of more than 20 m and the use of a crane, a cantilever solution was designed. This, apart from saving labour costs and speeding up road works, allowed keeping trafc owing unhindered of the constructions.

ULMA Solution
With a structure of four deck ange form carriers (8 m each), pouring lengths of 32 m in each stage were achieved. The exibility of the MK system to adapt to any section made it possible to erect a structure capable of performing one execution cycle in just 10 days. The MK system reduced shuttering times, as it was not necessary to move shoring towers to each new pouring stage. Moreover, the MK system ensures workers safety at all times and fulls all requirements determined by the customer.

El Salto Viaduct, Santiago, Chile


VERSATILE SHORING IN DIFFICULT TERRAIN

Description
It is a three span viaduct bridge with spans of 55.9 and 60 m measured along the central axis of the viaduct. The bridge deck consists of two box beam type steel beams supported on two piers and two abutments. Bridge deck width: 21.7 m Curvature radius: 370 m Superelevation: 6,9% Inclination: 7,4%

ULMA Solution
Given the uneven terrain, T-60 shoring towers were erected at different heights. A consistent surface required as support for laying the steel beams was thus provided. Small, low T-60 towers eased the assembly of these beams and their subsequent lifting to heights between 16 and 20 m. BRIO Modular Scaffolding was used as auxiliary means of access to workplaces. The partnership between ULMA and the customer with respect to design and work execution led to an optimal result.

Electric Train, Lima, Peru


MK SYSTEM: SOLUTION FOR DIVERSE STRUCTURES UNDER TIGHT DEADLINES

Description
This emblematic project of the City of Lima involves the construction of a 12.5 km long elevated viaduct and 8 train stations. The train is going to solve trafc problems and the chaos of public transport suffered by more than 300,000 passengers every day.

ULMA Solution
Faced with different structures and short lead times, ULMA decided in favour of the MK system as primary solution for all congurations. A qualied team and powerful logistics ensured the material supply within the agreed deadlines. ENKOFORM VMK was used as vertical formwork for the more than 400 piers of the viaduct. The formwork exceeding 7 meters height and of octagonal section had to withstand the high concrete pressure. For the bottom and sides of the pier caps, ENKOFORM HMK formwork shored by ALUPROP towers was used. The same systems combined with NEVI and COMAIN formwork were applied to the bottom of slab and beam. For the curved sections where no pre-stressed beams were required, MK as well as ALUPROP towers were used to sustain 108 t in each case (27 t per support point). The versatility of the MK system eased the installation of a pedestrian bridge and a structure for vehicle trafc. This way, the high demands of the customer have been fullled by far.

Tingo Bridge, Northern Interoceanic Highway, Peru


HIGH ENGINEERING IN COMPLEX TERRAIN

Description
The 40 m long and 9.4 m wide Tingo Bridge is located in the Amazonian province of Bagua Grande, on the 900 km long Northern Interoceanic Highway. This highway will connect the northern coast of Peru with the Atlantic Ocean through several ports of the Amazon River. Structure construction was the most important stage of the Project. With 2.6 m width and spans of 15 m, these structures were erected on four 0.4 m wide and 2 m high concrete bases strategically located in the riverbed.

ULMA Solution
The bridge design needed to respond to the natural ow of the river, its irregular course and to the strong water ow that can suddenly increase. Structure construction was the most important stage of the project. With 2.6 m width and spans of 15 m, these structures were erected on four 0.4 m wide and 2 m high concrete bases strategically located in the riverbed. Thoroughly braced MK trusses were erected. As base for BRIO shoring, MK Walers were placed perpendicularly as support for the VM20 timber beams. On this grid, COMAIN modular formwork formed the bottoms and sides of the concrete beam.

Salinas Bridge, Amazonas, Peru


MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE IN HOSTILE ENVIRONMENTS

Description
The 93.6 m long bridge links the Maran river banks and will boost trade and tourism in the Amazon region. The mountainous terrain demanded a precise topographic control. Moreover, the risk of severe ash oods and the lack of space determined the project design: a false through arch bridge supported at the ends and built with systems that do not require the use of crane.

ULMA Solution
With the MK System all required congurations were solved. The on-site advice during the assembly process and the quick delivery of 240 t of MK ensured maximum product efciency. The 28.30 m high MK shoring towers were erected to hold the MK arch during its assembly and dismantling process, as well as to hold the bridge deck formwork. The towers also aided the concrete pouring process MK Structures were used to form the curvature of the two concrete beams of the bridge deck arch. The structure had a rectangular section with a width of 1.2 m and variable depths (2 m at the bearings and 1.25 m at the crown), and it was successfully closed in the centre. The MK System offered the most efcient and cost-effective solution. Versatile and adaptable, it provided for 100% compliance with the tight construction deadlines.

Bridge over the Napo River, Orellana, Ecuador


VERSATILE AND SIMPLE SOLUTIONS

Description
At 300 m of this project, there is a 200 m long and 2.5 m wide one-way bridge. This constraint led the Ecuadorian government to build a new bridge for trafc in both directions and with higher load-bearing capacity. This was intended to promote the development of this part of the region. The new 590 m long cable-stayed bridge is divided into 7 spans. Its foundation consists of 174 piles of between 30 and 35 m depth. Each tower measures 80.5 m and includes 48 cables (24 per each side), whose function is to hold the steel deck with the concrete slab that makes up the superstructure.

ULMA Solution
For the construction of the two towers, the superelevation beams, the intermediate piers and abutments, ENKOFORM HMK horizontal formwork, ENKOFORM VMK vertical formwork, push-pull props and climbing brackets were used. The formwork systems chosen proved to be very versatile in the construction of the bridge, both for its speed and ease of erection. The assembled panels adapt effectively to the structure. This is how the required shape was obtained. The customer was fully satised with the performance and the technical service offered by ULMA.

Cut-and-Cover Tunnel, Extension of Railway Line, Terrassa, Spain


Complex solutions tailored to customer needs

Description
This cut-and-cover tunnel is part of a renovation project for Terrassas public transport system. The route extension will double daily passenger trafc reaching 32,000.

ULMA Solution
The works were carried out at a height of 17 metres because on the level below runs the underground and intermediate slabs are reduced in thickness. As a full shoring structure could not be implemented, a technically highly complex solution with vertical formwork carrier at height, shored by Towers T-500, Structures H-33, Towers BRIO and curved walers, which also provided cross reinforcement of the concrete at every 5.2 m, was developed. The 14 m long form carrier with a vault diameter of 22 m was used to build a 130 m tunnel in successive pouring stages of 12.35 m. A pace of work of 3 pouring stages every 2 weeks was achieved by the repositioning of the form carrier in only one day. The reuse of the material has been ongoing, since the shoring towers and main support beams along with the other systems were dismantled after use and assembled again at the next pouring stages for subsequent movement of the structure.

Villamuriel de Cerrato Tunnel, Valladolid, Spain


Great savings on supplies, erection and construction

Description
Within the high-speed European Atlantic Railway Axis, this 500 m long, 14.4 m wide and 9.9 m high cut-and-cover tunnel is part of the Baos triangle, a railway juncture of 4 lines between Valladolid, Palencia and Burgos.

Ulma Solution
ULMA proposed a protable project from the rst step on with the appropriate technical solution and reusable material, thus reducing supply expenses, as well as erection and construction time. Despite of the clayey ground conditions, the solution met the deadline marked through the detailed planning of material supply and erection. The Technical Department of ULMA designed two light form carriers for the moving of a large formwork area with the auxiliary means available on the building site. The rolling systems enabled the construction of the tunnel section in stretches of 12.5 m without changing the conguration of the form carrier. After the technical study, ULMA considered to be the best solution to start from the central part of the tunnel. The two form carriers moved from the central part towards opposite ends to build the vault while erecting the formwork for the side walls. The accomplishment of works in a synchronous manner contributed to a considerable saving of time for each stretch. With the same product, ENKOFORM, the curved geometries of the vault and the side walls were formed. Once again, health and safety of workers have been a priority for ULMA. The working platforms with safety handrails and ladders with protection ensured a high level of safety.

Bypass Tunnel EN-101 Ponte da Barca - Arcos de Valdevez, Portugal


Formwork moving on rails

Description
This is a cut-and-cover tunnel (115 m) in the EN-101 Bypass Ponte da Barca - Arcos de Valdevez, in Portugal.

ULMA Solution
ENKOFORM H-120 and ENKOFORM V-100 beam-based formwork was used in tiers of 12 m except for the rst and last which was 9.5 m. The cut-and-cover tunnel was completed in two pouring stages: side walls and vault. The side walls were built with double-sided ENKOFORM V-100 formwork consisting of steel walers and timber beams. The side walls were shaped with curved walers, while DW15 tie rods bore the concrete pressure. The outside waler was anchored to the foundation and had a level of built-in working platforms for pouring work. The inside waler was also anchored to the concrete of the counter-vault and kept stiff with push-pull props. Inside and outside formwork units had a level of built-in working platforms. Both units were moved by crane using lifting hooks. For the vault of the cut-and-cover tunnel, the inside formwork was placed on a vertical formwork carrier moving on rails. The form carrier consists in a structure of MK walers. It has working platforms at several levels with handrails of 1.5 m and safe access. In vault areas where double-sided formwork was required, a crane-handled outside formwork joined to a working platform was used. The working platform consisted of ORMA brackets to plumb the outside formwork unit.

Rome Metro Line C, Italy


A single solution for different tunnels

Description
Line C, which connects the periphery with the city centre, is going to be the longest public transport route of Italy and the rst line of Romes metro. A unique project in which ULMA has worked at 30 m depth over a length of 25.5 km. Alessandrino Station: Length of 2 parallel tunnels: 115 m Variable radius of curvature of 4.29 to 4.9 m Variable radius of curvature of 4.29 to 4.9 m Formwork carrier length: 12.1 m Pouring cycle: 2 days Assembly: on-site 23 days. The MK form carrier was used in both galleries and divided into modules of 6 m to build the 28 m long tunnel of Centocelle Station. Mirti Station: Length of 2 parallel tunnels: 46 m Variable radius of curvature of 4.29 to 4.9 m Formwork carrier length: 6.1 m Pouring cycle: 3 days Assembly: in warehouse. The exibility of the system eased the lowering of the central portion of the form carrier in every stage to avoid interference with the existing slab. Malatesta Station: Tunnel length: 165 m Variable radius of curvature of 4.29 to 4.9 m Formwork carrier length: 12.1 m Pouring cycle: 3 days Assembly: on-site 17 days. The form carrier of the Alessandrino Station was reused by replacing a minimum number of items. Divisible: the entire section was 12 m except for the curved areas, where it was reduced to 6 m. Lodi Station walls: Perimeter per oor: 276 First oor wall height: variable 4.21 - 6.03 m General wall height: 6.16 - 6.76 m Pouring cycle: 2 days. With the MK Truss system and beam-based formwork, walls of up to 12 m length were built. This system, most suitable for long structures, offered solutions to a wide range of tunnel sections regardless of complex shapes or high loads.

ULMA Solution
From the beginning on, ULMA supplied the material and provided its expertise and professional advice in the construction of the underground stations. The modularity of the MK system made it possible to apply a single solution, and to reuse the form carriers in different galleries with a minimal need for adaptation to the varying geometries. Safety was built-in in the ULMA systems, since all vertical formwork carriers were equipped with working platforms and ladders.

Blanka Tunnel, Prague, Czech Republic


A single structure for a variety of tunnel sections

Description
Located in the Czech capital, the tunnel is part of 8 km of infrastructure to relocate trafc underground. A series of large tunnels make up the complex network of ventilation ducts. Amongst them the SO 05 stands out as the one with the largest cross section in the Czech Republic.

ULMA Solution
With a single product, ULMAs technical service provided solutions to the various congurations of this project. The construction of the SO 05 tunnel was done with two 6.5 m long form carriers, one for steel reinforcement works and the other for the formwork. Both had large working platforms for material storage and safe working at height. Tunnel dimensions: Length: 120 m Width: 17.5 m Height: 14 m ULMAs solution suited the travel of form carriers while, at the same time, works at the slab formwork in Tunnel SO 04 were carried out. Tunnel SO 04: two consecutive tunnels with different sections and vault lengths, in addition to the bottom and side walls, had to be built. This was all done with formwork carriers with structures pre-assembled in warehouse, which eased the erection and saved valuable working time. For the STT tunnel, the one with the highest trafc density, the walls of the ventilation ducts beneath the oor were built with form carriers. Their simple and easy handling was increased by the use of pre-assembled formwork units. ENKOFLEX was used as slab formwork. A project of this scale required ULMA to offer solutions and advice to the customer especially for intersections of tunnels with different cross sections and for the form carrier travel in areas not yet built. The versatility of the system generated a complete success.

Wiggins Island Coal Export Terminal, Gladstone, Australia


MK System for cut-and-cover tunnels of great length

Description
This terminal is located at Golding Point and within the Port of Gladstone. With the growing demand for coal, WICET will provide a major impetus to the export volume of Queensland coal industry. On commissioning, the terminal will double the export capacity of the Port of Gladstone with up to 80 million tonnes per year.

ULMA Solution
ULMA supplied all the formwork and scaffolding required for the project, which included a 2 km long jetty conveyor and the construction of 950 m coal transport channels. Many factors have been taken into account such as waterproong, changes of direction and safety, the latter being vital in the project. MK form carriers were used to meet all these requirements. Waler joints of the MK System provide high stiffness and require less material. Moreover, they enable the placing of larger pouring platforms than the usual ones. The tunnels were built in variable lengths of 15 to 30 m to ease form carrier adaptation to the changes of direction and varying slope. Its hydraulic system provided a smooth stripping, and the electric motors moved the form carriers at a speed of 6.2 m/minute. The inside diameter of the tunnels was 6.5 m with variable wall thickness between 37.5 cm at the top and 70 cm at the bottom of the side walls. Moreover, ENKOFORM VMK and ORMA wall formwork and ENKOFLEX slab formwork has been supplied.

Located in Torre de Moncorvo, in the Portuguese district Bragana, this big river was the only on the Iberian Peninsula remaining without dam. The 50 km long reservoir has two power stations located in the Sabor River. They are going to generate 170 MW of power and an annual electricity production of 444 GWh.

ULMA Solution
For the construction of this 127 m high and 505 m long dam, ORMA, BIRA and ENKOFORM V-100 vertical formwork was used. Single-sided climbing brackets were used, in addition to supplies of shoring systems, BRIO Modular Scaffolding and BRIO Ladder. More than 860,300 m3 of concrete were poured. Working at great height was conducted by following the highest safety standards. G Climbing Brackets and Climbing Brackets 2000 enabled the installation of large working platforms remaining horizontal at all times regardless of the inclination of the dam wall. ULMAs experience in such works made it possible to give best advice to the customer and to use the most appropriate products for each and one application. The reliance on logistics centres and the assembly near the building site made it possible to meet the agreed stringent deadlines.

Hydroelectric Plant, Ingula, South Africa


Reuse of material in the same building site

Description
This plant has two reservoirs at a distance of 4.6 km and connected by tunnels. The supplied material was used for the machine room, the main cavern of 183 m length, 24 m width and 45 m height, which houses the four turbines generating 333 MW of electric power.

ULMA Solution
The work was undertaken in three stages: Foundations and beams for underpasses. These were built with MK Trusses for their high load capacity and low height. Placing of prefabricated beams and columns. BRIO Modular Scaffolding in its conguration as towers was used. Walkways with the MK Systems ensured workers safety when moving between scaffolds.

In-situ pouring of crane lanes. This was done with MK Trusses, well adapting to the space between columns of 5 and 13 m. Shored on MK towers, the trusses reached sufcient height at the centre to enable vehicle trafc at the building site. With the objective to optimise costs, the material was designed for use in the rst tunnel half, and its subsequent reuse in the nal part of the tunnel. The continuous contact between ULMA technicians and the customer contributed largely to the compliance with construction deadlines.

Renovation of the Vizcaya Bridge, Bilbao, Spain


Industrial art at height

Description
Declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 2006, the Vizcaya Bridge is a symbol for the Industrial Revolution of the late nineteenth century. It is the oldest transporter bridge of the world. ULMA has made the most important renovation of the past decades. The project began in late 2010 with the repainting of the steel structure after a decision on the colour has been made by users and experts. The steel frame with rails from which the gondola is slung was also in need of repair after its damaging during the Civil War.

ULMA Solution
The structure was completely clad with BRIO Modular Scaffolding. 800 tonnes of material distributed over 4 towers of 68 m and the horizontal steel frame of 162 m length. The scaffolding for the towers was supported on the ground, while the one for the horizontal structure hung from a truss. A builders hoist was installed to ease the movement of material and people. The erection was done in stages, beginning the rst with towers 1 and 2 on the Las Arenas bank and with one third of the scaffolding for the horizontal structure hanging from a truss. Afterwards, the scaffolding for tower 3 and 4 of the Portugalete bank was erected, and for the horizontal structure following the same process of hanging the scaffold from a truss. This was concluded with the complete erection of the scaffold for the bridge steel frame. The scaffolding structure of the towers was also used for the tting of the builders hoist support platform. This platform was made with scaffolding platforms resting on 5 m long bridging beams at a height of 7.5 m.

Restoration of the Palace of Communications, Madrid, Spain


Restoration of irregular geometries at great height

Description
ULMA undertook the restoration of the faade of this emblematic building in Madrid. Given the size of the project, the work was done in stages.

ULMA Solution
In order to access the sides of the great towers (keeps) and to avoid erection from the ground, it required a scaffolding with cantilevers. This was done with BRIO Modular Scaffolding. DORPA scaffolding, erected from the ground, very much suited the works at the faades. Moreover, BRIO scaffolding was used to provide pedestrian walkways to prevent obstruction on the public road. The height of the scaffolding exceeded at some points 35 m, and this in areas of high exposure to wind. The height of the scaffolding exceeded at some points 35 m, and this in areas of high exposure to wind.Hence, stability calculations as well as meticulous checks of the anchorage of the scaffold to the faade had to be made for each assembly stage.
