[0001] The present group of inventions is related to civil engineering and can be used in
erection of multi-storey buildings/constructions.
[0002] Method for erecting monolithic buildings and technological equipment for its implementation
is known (group of inventions, 1)
[0003] Method under the preferred embodiment includes erection of the building monolithic
segment consisting of floor structure of the whole building and vertical structures
of the upper tier/storey of the whole building. Main principle of the method: erecting
the tier/storey floor structure of the whole building; following setting of concrete
of said floor structure, pouring concrete of vertical structures of the next tier/storey
of the whole building; curing the poured concrete until the design strength is achieved;
erecting subsequent floor structure, etc. During performance of works, formwork rests
on the already poured vertical structures of building. Technological equipment comprises,
without limitation, travelling formwork and vertical shuttering panels. Travelling
formwork includes lifting jacks with props, where U-shaped jack frames are installed.
Posts of said jack frames are equipped with bearing plates. Frames located on both
sides of the being erected vertical structures are connected together by rigid links.
On bearing plates of said jack frame posts, carriages are mounted with possibility
of travelling across said being erected vertical structures with vertical shuttering
panels installed on them. During concreting, jack frames rest on vertical shuttering
panels installed on the underlying vertical structures. Following the required strength
of concrete is attained, jack frames are relocated to rest upon props of lifting jacks,
and formwork is lifted to the next tier/storey.
[0004] The fact that jack frames during performance of works rest upon vertical shuttering
panels imposes increased requirements to the strength properties of panels. It results
in excessive consumption of metal during manufacturing of the panel frames, increased
power consumption for relocation of formwork. Erection of multilayer vertical structures
using known travelling formwork requires some time for the poured concrete to attain
necessary strength in order to make it possible to re-rest jack frames on lifting
jacks, which are installed on the already erected vertical structures, and to mold
a cavity for the new layer. It extends the time of construction.
[0005] The present group of inventions is directed toward solution of following tasks: reduction
of time for erection of buildings/constructions of monolithic reinforced concrete;
reduction of material and labor costs.
[0006] The set task is resolved by the method for erecting vertical structures of building/construction
of monolithic reinforced concrete including process steps of:
- installing lifting jacks containing props enclosed in shells on the already erected
structures; installing U-shaped jack frames equipped with posts and extendible supports
on said jack props; connecting posts of said jack frames located adjacently on both
sides of the being erected vertical structures by rigid links;

reciprocating and rotating or only rotating motion to shells enclosing props of lifting

jack frames with formwork on the next tier/storey; and repeating the cycle for erecting
vertical structures. Vertical structures can be erected simultaneously for the whole
building/construction.

- moving formwork panels away from the molded multilayer surface; resting props of lifting
jacks upon the already erected base (constructional) layer of vertical structure;
lifting U-shaped jack frames with formwork on the next tier/storey; and repeating
the cycle for erecting multilayer vertical structures.
[0008] Prior to fill molding cavity of the base (constructional) layer with concrete, removable
recess-forming cages can be hanged on the inner surface of formwork panels. Prior
molding of the last (outer) layer, these cages shall be removed.
[0009] On posts of jack frames, panels can be installed with holes performed in their decks,
where sleeves of elastic material are inserted. Following adjustment of width of molding
cavity of the base (constructional) layer, reinforcing rods are inserted in holes
with protruding ends located on both sides of the plane of panels. Following removal
of panels and prior molding the next layer, a mesh cage is secured on the inserted
reinforcing rods.

steps of:
- installing lifting jacks containing props enclosed in shells on the already erected
vertical structures; installing U-shaped jack frames equipped with posts and extendible

[0012] Floor structure and vertical structures of the whole building/construction can be
erected simultaneously.
[0013] The set task is resolved by the method for erecting the "floor structure-multilayer
wall" segment of building/construction of monolithic reinforced concrete including
process steps of:
- installing lifting jacks containing props enclosed in shells on the already erected
vertical structures; installing U-shaped jack frames equipped with posts and extendible
supports on said jack props; connecting posts of said jack frames located adjacently
on both sides of the being erected vertical structures by rigid links;
- installing the floor structure formwork with reinforcement cages and installing reinforcement
cages of vertical structures for the whole height of tier/storey with their connection
to protruding reinforcement of previously erected structures and reinforcement of
floor structure;
- installing formwork panels for erection of vertical structures on the posts of jack
frames; securing rigidly said panels located in single plane; adjusting the width
of molding cavity; and connecting said panels located in parallel on the opposite
side of reinforcement cage of the being erected vertical structures by means of tightening
devices; locating bottom part of vertical shuttering panels at the level of the top
part of floor structure formwork;
- pouring concrete of the floor structure; pouring concrete into molding cavities of
being the erected vertical structures at the final stage of setting of said floor
structure concrete; imparting reciprocating and rotating or only rotating motion to
shells enclosing props of lifting jacks; moving formwork panels away from the molded
surface on one or both sides following stripping strength of the molded structures
is attained; adjusting the width of molding cavity of the new layer and filling said
cavity with molding material;
- resting U-shaped jack frames upon the poured vertical structures by means of extendible
supports following 30-40% design strength of the base (constructional) layer of vertical
structures is attained; extracting lifting jack props with their enclosing shells
from said molded vertical structures with subsequent filling cavities formed in vertical
structures with concrete;
- moving formwork panels away from the molded multilayer surface; resting props of lifting
jacks upon the already erected base (constructional) layer of vertical structure;
lifting U-shaped jack frames with formwork on the next tier/storey; and repeating
the cycle for erecting the building/construction segment.
[0014] Prior to fill molding cavity of the base (constructional) layer with concrete, removable
recess-forming cages can be hanged on the inner surface of formwork panels. Prior
molding of the last (outer) layer, these cages shall be removed.
[0015] On posts of jack frames, panels can be installed with holes performed in their decks,
where sleeves of elastic material are inserted. Following adjustment of width of molding
cavity of the base (constructional) layer, reinforcing rods are inserted in holes
with protruding ends located on both sides of the plane of panels. Following removal
of panels and prior molding of the next layer, mesh cage is secured on the inserted
reinforcing rods.
[0016] Floor structure and vertical multilayer structures of the whole building/construction
can be erected simultaneously.
[0017] The set task is resolved also by application of travelling formwork comprising lifting
jacks having props with U-shaped jack frames installed on them. In the base of jack
frame posts, guides are secured, where holders of formwork panels of vertical structures
are installed with possibility of travelling across said being erected vertical structures
by means of the motor drive for their motion. At least one of the jack frame posts
is provided with extendible support installed on it. On props of lifting jacks, shells
are installed freely with possibility of rotation and vertical motion. Lower end of
each shell is located in the base of the lower (end side) arm of lifting jack. Posts
of adjacent jack frames located on each side of the being erected vertical structures
are connected with each other by rigid links. Travelling formwork includes also vertical
shuttering panels connected rigidly with each other and secured on the jack frame
holders. Each said panel contains bearing frame with an edge profile around the panel
perimeter.
[0018] Extendible supports of jack frames can be provided with motion drive and can be installed
on each post of jack frames in guides located at an angle (preferably 45 degrees)
to the being erected vertical structures. In addition, guides for motion of extendible
supports located on posts of each U-shaped jack frame are arranged in opposite directions
from posts along the being erected vertical structures.
[0019] Rotation drive of the shell can be installed on a pad located on its top end and
contains a gear wheel engaging a gear ring secured on outer surface in the top part
of the lifting jack prop.
[0020] The set task is resolved also by application of the vertical shuttering panel for
erection of multilayer structures, which contains bearing frame with an edge profiles
around the panel perimeter, a deck secured on said frame with holes performed in it,
where sleeves of elastic material are inserted. On end face of the top edge profile
of a panel, at least one bracket with holes for fixing elements to connect with the
U-shaped jack frame can be secured.
[0021] In edge profiles of the vertical shuttering panels, holes for fixing elements to
connect with other panels can be performed. In the panel deck and bearing frame elements,
holes for tightening devices can be performed. Panel can be sized for the whole height
of tier/storey.
[0022] The set of features of both every individual invention and the group of inventions,
including structural elements (assemblies, parts, etc.), when they are used jointly,
makes it possible to resolve the set task. Shells installed on the props of lifting
jacks with possibility of rotation and vertical motion allow isolation of props in
the process of structures concreting. In the process of implementation of methods
for erecting structural elements of building/construction, load from the whole formwork
is transferred to the previously erected vertical structures by means of jacks, unlike
to panels as it follows from prior art. It makes it possible to decrease significantly
amount of metal used to manufacture the frame of panels resulting in reduction of
power consumed for relocation of formwork. Besides, it becomes possible to arrange
additional layers of structures immediately following concrete of the erected base
(constructional) layer achieves the stripping strength. Time to stripping of structures
is less than time required for the poured concrete to set to a strength, when it becomes
possible to transfer the formwork load on it by means of lifting jacks. As compared
with prior art, it allows reduction of construction time. Installation of guides on
the jack frame posts, where holders of the vertical shuttering panels are installed
with possibility of motion across the being erected vertical structures, makes it
possible, just as its provided by the prior art, to adjust the wall thickness, including
reduction of the wall thickness of upper tiers/storeys, which contributes the decreased
expenditure of construction materials. Extendible supports installed on posts of jack
frames allow relocation of travelling formwork on the poured vertical structures and
extraction of lifting jacks to continue performance of works. Application of removable
recess-forming cages hanged prior concreting on the vertical shuttering panels, as
well as panels with holes in their decks for inserting reinforcing rods to secure
mesh cage prior concreting of the next layer makes it possible to improve bonding
of layers of vertical structures. It increases reliability and quality of construction
works.

[0024] In the specific embodiment as defined below, travelling formwork comprises lifting
jacks with props 1, where U-shaped jack frames 2 are installed on. In the base of
each post 3 of said jack frames, guides 4 are secured, where holders 6 of the vertical
shuttering panels 7 are installed with motor drive providing possibility of their
motion across the being erected vertical structures 5. Also, on posts 3 of the jack
frame 2, extendible supports 8 are installed moveably. On props 1 of lifting jacks,
shells 9 are installed freely with possibility of rotation and vertical motion. Lower
end of each shell 9 is located in the base of the lower (end side) arm of lifting
jack. Posts 3 of adjacent jack frames 2 located on each side of the being erected
vertical structures 5 are connected with each other by rigid links 10. Travelling
formwork includes also vertical shuttering panels 7 connected rigidly with each other
and secured on holders 6 of jack frames 2. Each said panel 7 contains bearing frame
with an edge profile around the panel perimeter. Extendible supports 8 of jack frames
2 are provided with motion drive and are installed on each post 3 of jack frames 2
in guides 11 located at an angle (preferably 45 degrees) to the being erected vertical
structures 5. In addition, guides 11 are directed in opposite sides from posts 3 along
the being erected vertical structures 5. It is evident that extendible supports 8
can be located only on the one of posts 3 of jack frames 2. In this case, extendible
supports 8 on adjacent jack frames 2 will be located in the staggered order along
the being erected vertical structures 5. Such an arrangement ensures reliable resting
of the whole formwork on the being erected vertical structures following extraction
of props 1 of lifting jacks from them. It is also evident that extendible supports
8 can be executed in the form of outriggers of the truck crane (supports of extendible,
folding, pivotable and extendible, pivotable and folding types, etc.) and located
on posts 3. Rotation drive of the shell 9 is installed on a pad located on its top
end and contains gear wheel 12 engaging gear ring 13 secured on outer surface in the
top part of the lifting jack prop 1. When props 1 are extracted from vertical structures
5, disengaging of gear wheel 12 and gear ring 13 occurs. Props 1 are lifted together
with shells 9.
[0025] Travelling formwork comprises also vertical shuttering panels 7 containing bearing
frame containing edge profiles around the panel perimeter. On end face of the top
edge profile of panel 7, at least one bracket 14 with holes for fixing elements to
connect with holders 6 of the U-shaped jack frames 2 can be secured. In edge profiles
of the vertical shuttering panel, holes for fixing elements to connect with other
panels can be performed. In the panel deck and bearing frame elements, holes for tightening
devices can be performed. Panel can be sized for the whole height of tier/storey.
For erection of multilayer structures, panels 15 can be used with holes 17 performed
in their decks 16, where sleeves of elastic material are inserted. Also, for erection
of multilayer structures, panels 7 can be used with removable recess-forming cages
18 hanged on them from the inner side.
[0026] Single-layer vertical structures are erected as follows.
[0027] Lifting jacks containing props 1 enclosed in shells 9 with U-shaped jack frames 2
provided with extendible supports 8 and installed on these props 1 are mounted on
the already erected structures 5. Posts 3 of adjacent jack frames 2 located on each
side of the being erected vertical structures are connected with each other by rigid
links 10. Reinforcement cages of vertical structures are installed for the whole height
of tier/storey and are secured to the protruding reinforcement of previously erected
structures. Formwork panels 7 containing brackets 14 are secured to holders 6, and
all panels 7 located in single plane are connected rigidly with each other. Width
of molding cavity is adjusted by movement of holders 6 in guides 4. Panels located
in parallel on the opposite side of reinforcement cage of the being erected vertical
structures are connected by means of tightening devices. Concrete is poured in molding
cavities of the being erected vertical structures 5. Reciprocating and rotational
or only rotational motion is imparted to shells 9 enclosing props 1 of lifting jacks.
When 30-40% design strength of erected structures is attained, U-shaped jack frames
2 are laid resting on the poured vertical structures 5 by means of extendible supports
8; props 1 of lifting jacks with their enclosing shells 9 are extracted from said
vertical structures, while cavities formed in these structures are filled with concrete,
and the formwork panels are moved away from the molded surface. Said cavities can
be filled not for the whole height (not shown in figures). In this case, sockets are
left for further installation of props 1 of lifting jacks. When the required strength
of concrete is attained, props 1 of lifting jacks are placed resting upon the already
erected structures 5, U-shaped jack frames 2 are raised with formwork on the next
tier/storey and the cycle of erection of vertical structures is repeated. Vertical
structures can be erected simultaneously for the whole building/construction.
[0028] Multilayer vertical structures are erected as follows.
[0029] First stages of erecting the base (constructional) layer are performed in just the
same manner as described above.
[0030] When molded structures (constructional layer) attain the stripping strength, formwork
panels 7 on one or both sides are moved away from the molded surface (an example is
shown in figures, where panels are moved away only on the one side to form the second
layer 22). Width of molding cavity of the new layer is adjusted and this cavity is
filled with molding material. When 30-40% design strength of the base (constructional)
layer is attained, U-shaped jack frames 2 are laid resting on the poured vertical
structures 5 (constructional layer) by means of extendible supports 8; props 1 of
lifting jacks with their enclosing shells 9 are extracted from said vertical structures
(constructional layer), while cavities formed in these structures are filled with
concrete. The formwork panels 7 are moved away from the molded multilayer surface,
props 1 of lifting jacks are placed resting on the already erected base (constructional)
layer of vertical structure 5, U-shaped jack frames 2 are raised with formwork on
the next tier/storey and the cycle of erection of the multilayer vertical structures
is repeated. In one of possible embodiments (Figs, 11,12), prior to fill molding cavity
of the base (constructional) layer with concrete, the removable recess-forming cages
18 are hanged on the inner surface of the formwork panels 7 and removed prior molding
of the last (outer) layer. Vertical structures can be erected simultaneously for the
whole building/construction. Under another embodiment (Figs. 14,15), panels 15 (Fig.13)
are installed on posts 3 of jack frames 2. The deck 16 of said panels 15 is provided
with holes 17 performed in it, where sleeves of elastic material are inserted. Following
adjustment of width of molding cavity of the base (constructional) layer, reinforcing
rods 19 are inserted in holes 17 with their ends located on both sides of the plane
of panels 15. Following panels are moved away prior molding of the next layer, mesh
cage 20 is secured on the inserted reinforcing rods 19. Vertical multilayer structures
can be erected simultaneously for the whole building/construction. It is evident that
outside the constructional layer it is possible to erect simultaneously two - facing
and insulating - layers at once. In this case, panels 7 or 15 are moved away from
the molded constructional layer on both sides and works are performed as it is described
above.
[0031] The "floor structure - wall" segment of building/constructions is erected of monolithic
reinforced concrete as follows.
[0032] Lifting jacks containing props 1 enclosed in shells 9 with U-shaped jack frames 2
provided with extendible supports 8 and installed on said props 1 are mounted on the
already erected structures 5. Posts 3 of adjacent jack frames 2 located on each side
of the being erected vertical structures are connected with each other by rigid links
10. The floor structure formwork 21 with reinforcement cages is mounted and reinforcement
cages of vertical structures for the whole height of tier/storey are installed. Said
reinforcement cages are secured to protruding reinforcement of previously erected
vertical structures and floor structure. Formwork panels 7 containing brackets 14
are secured to holders 6, and all panels 7 located in single plane are connected rigidly
with each other with their bottom part located at the level of the top of the floor
structure formwork. Width of molding cavity is adjusted by movement of holders 6 in
guides 4. Panels 7 located in parallel on the opposite side of reinforcement cage
of the being erected vertical structures are connected by means of tightening devices.
Concrete of floor structure is poured and at the final stage of its setting concrete
is poured in molding cavities of the being erected vertical structures. Reciprocating
and rotational or only rotational motion is imparted to shells 9 enclosing props 1
of lifting jacks. When 30-40% design strength of erected structures is attained, U-shaped
jack frames 2 are laid resting on the poured vertical structures 5 (constructional
layer) by means of extendible supports 8; props 1 of lifting jacks with their enclosing
shells 9 are extracted from said vertical structures, while cavities formed in these
structures are filled with concrete, and the formwork panels are moved away from the
molded surface. Props 1 of lifting jacks are placed resting on the already erected
structures, U-shaped jack frames 2 are raised with formwork on the next tier/storey
and the cycle of erection of the said building segment is repeated. Floor structure
and vertical structures can be erected simultaneously for the whole building/construction.
[0033] The "floor structure -multilayer wall" segment of building/construction of monolithic
reinforced concrete is erected as follows.
[0034] First stages of works are performed in just the same manner as during erection of
the "wall - floor structure" segment. When the base (constructional layer) attains
the stripping strength, formwork panels on one or both sides are moved away from the
molded vertical surface (an example is shown in figures, where panels are moved away
only on the one side to form the second layer 22). Width of molding cavity of the
new layer is adjusted and this cavity is filled with molding material. When 30-40%
design strength of the base (constructional) layer of vertical structures is attained,
U-shaped jack frames 2 are laid resting on the base layer by means of extendible supports
8; props 1 of lifting jacks with their enclosing shells 9 are extracted from said
base layer, while cavities formed in vertical structures are filled with concrete.
The formwork panels 7 are moved away from the molded multilayer surface, props 1 of
lifting jacks are placed resting on the erected base (constructional) layer of vertical
structure, U-shaped jack frames 2 are raised with formwork on the next tier/storey
and the cycle of erection of the building/construction part is repeated. Possible
embodiments of the method for erecting multilayer vertical structures are disclosed
above in respective section of the present patent specification. Floor structure and
multilayer vertical structures can be erected simultaneously for the whole building/construction.
[0035] Utilization of inventions makes it possible to reduce consumption of materials for
technological equipment and power costs for this equipment relocation. Time required
for erection of buildings/constructions with multilayer vertical structures is reduced.
When works are carried out simultaneously at the whole building/construction, just
as it is specified in the family patent, creation of the monolithic building segment
including floor slab structure of building and vertical structures of the upper tier/storey
is ensured. Furthermore, rigidity and strength properties of the erected buildings/constructions
are improved, which makes it possible to utilize inventions efficiently during construction
activities in seismic regions.
