Layher’s falsework and heavy-load tower systems address key challenges in concrete formwork support and temporary heavy-load applications across construction and civil engineering projects.

Below, we highlight Layher’s key systems and showcase how they perform in real projects.

Examples of Falsework Props Offered by Layher

Situations suitable for Allround Shoring TG 60

By reducing the number of towers required, this system is ideal for projects aiming to cut material and labor costs.

Allround Shoring TG 60 is a falsework tower designed to support loads of up to 6 tonnes per prop. Even the heaviest frame weighs only 18 kg, allowing workers to carry it by hand with ease.

For assembly work, a pre-installed handrail system is used to provide a consistently safe working environment. It is also possible to assemble the components into units on the ground and then lift and position the assembled units using a crane, significantly reducing the on-site preparation time.

Heavy-Duty Scaffold Towers & Shoring/Propping

Situations suitable for Heavy-Duty Scaffold Towers & Shoring/Propping

These support towers are widely used in bridge erection, plant construction, and other sites where particularly large loads are applied.

The modular shoring system Allround System is used. This enables four-prop clustering for added reinforcement and adding sturdy height-adjustable jacks (reinforced spindles) to handle heavy loads.

Since it is based on common components used in scaffolding systems like those of Layher, there is no need to use custom parts. By reducing unique parts, costs and setup processes are minimized, while complex-shaped structures are also reliably supported.

Layher Falsework Props—Application Example

Case study of historic church renovation

This case study highlights a refurbishment project for a sloped and complex-shaped tower. The Allround system was used to install work platforms up to 11 stories and a staircase.

Workers assembled scaffolding to match the contours of the building framework. This ensured a safe environment for movement and work even in high locations, reaching every corner of the working area. Layher’s system supported precise restoration work.

Case study of giant planetarium construction work

In this project, Heavy-Duty Scaffold Towers were used at the construction site to support a massive spherical screen with a total weight of approximately 725 tonnes.

The construction was carried out at a height of approximately 15 meters above ground level. By employing a falsework system that excels in strength and stability, it was possible to safely support heavy panels one at a time, even at high and unstable locations.

As the project progressed, the falsework was strengthened in stages, expanding the safe load capacity and enabling large-scale assembly work to be completed safely.

Support Services by Layher
