Super flat forms - description

dee super flat forms are available in 12-gauge steel for forms up to 7.5" in height and in 10-gauge steel for metal forms from 4" to 24" in height. The defining characteristic of these forms is the top rail's angled edge. These forms are used for pouring super flat floors primarily for warehouse floors of similar applications where wire guides are used to maneuver or control material handling equipment. Many new large warehouse construction projects require super flat floors for wire-guided warehouse equipment or the anticipated use of wire-guided warehouse equipment.

dee super flat forms come in two styles. One style is manufactured with a fixed angle and the other with a removable angle. Both styles can have dowel holes punched and be outfitted with special connector bolt ends.

When the warehouse floor placement is being finished, the finishing screed rides on the angle edge of the super flat form and pushes loose concrete on the form rail to the side avoiding screed hops that typically cause ripples in the floor over the width of the placement.

Applications

• Warehouse floors requiring near zero deviation for guide by wire warehouse equipment.

• Other floor applications where extremely minimal deviation in the floor is required.

Features and benefits

dee super flat forms:

• Eliminate the cause of screed hop, saving the contractor involvement in costly rework.
  

• Eliminate the cost and time of rework due to a deviation from the required flatness, saving the concrete contractor the need to grind out or fill the imperfections, or breakout the placement and start over in extreme cases

• Can double as standard flatwork forms if the super flat form with the removable angle is purchased, increasing the form's versatility and saving the contractor the expense of buying additional forms.
