Rail-guided climbing with optional self-climbing technology
The new PERI RCS climbing system combines the advantages of various available climbing systems to form a new construction kit system.
Two climbing options are available – the type of application must also be taken into consideration – either by crane or crane-independently using the mobile hydraulic climbing device. The RCS construction kit allows simple adaptation of standard solutions to specific building site requirements.
For the type of utilisation, a distinction is made between:
RCS Shuttering Scaffold
Climbing formwork scaffolding complete with carriage for wall formwork support.
RCS Climbing Protection Panel
The climbing protection panel which completely encloses floors under construction – particularly on highrise structures.
RCS Self-Climbing Device
The mobile self-climbing device and hydraulic pump allow crane-independent climbing as and when necessary. With this concept, the cost of self-climbing technology has been minimized as well as ensuring costeffective implementation for structures with lower heights.
Through the climbing rail, the scaffold unit is always connected to the building by means of the climbing shoe for the entire climbing procedure. Furthermore, it is impossible for the RCS climbing unit to “drift” during strong winds and can be climbed safely and quickly at any time.
Advantages
Versatile
Modular system for different climbing applications: - formwork scaffolding with retractable wall formwork - climbing protection panel for fully enclosing storeys under construction
Safe and cost-effective
Completely enclosed floors provide protection against wind and weather leading to an increase in productivity.
Fast
Quick and safe moving procedure due to rail-guided climbing. Crane-independent through retro-fitted mobile self-climbing devices.
