Raising all wall formwork from one section to the next, with a push of a button, the Doka Super Climber is a modular, all-in-one system for high-rise structures. Together with the working platforms, timberbeam or framed formworks are raised to the next casting section in a single lift by powerful hydraulic cylinders - completely eliminating the crane.

A Study in Architectural Forming
Morley Construction faced a tight schedule and intricate architectural concrete forming requirements on the new San Diego Central Library, which was designed by Rob Quigley and destined to become an iconic figure in the city’s skyline.
BIM was a central element to the library’s construction, allowing for scheduling and clash detection. Morley used Revit to build every column, wall and piece of concrete and detect conflicts floor by floor. Each week all subcontractors were required to submit their updated BIM files to Turner to update the master BIM file.

Why Wait to Form Walls on Footings?
Concrete Foundations Association (CFA)
The Concrete Foundations Association explains the rationale behind the speed available to the construction of residential concrete foundations and why footings are not susceptible to damage if the contractor continues the forming process on day two.
Contractors regularly look at the basic U.S. residential concrete foundation as being a three-day process. Excavation, footing forming and concrete placement on day one; wall forming and concrete placement on day two; and form stripping, clean-up and waterproofing on day three.
