Table Head – Table Formwork Support Head

A formwork table head is a specialized connector component，designed for formwork systems, the Table Head is installed on adjustable steel props or shoring systems to securely support primary beams and formwork panels. It provides stable load transfer and allows quick assembly and dismantling of table formwork systems.

Key Functions and Features

Connection: Directly locks the top of a vertical support (such as a steel or aluminum prop) onto horizontal H20 beams or metal primary beams, eliminating the need for complex drilling or bolting.

Stability: Provides a robust, level load-bearing surface that evenly transfers the load of the concrete slab to the shoring towers or individual props.

Rotation or Lowering Function: Many modern table formwork heads feature rotating, folding, or "drop-head" mechanisms. These allow workers to quickly release the formwork or lower it by a few centimeters, enabling the early removal of formwork panels while the support props remain in place.

Construction Efficiency: Simplifies assembly and dismantling processes, allowing crews to use cranes or trolleys to move large, pre-assembled table forms as complete units between different construction zones.

Formwork Table Head FAQ

What do you need to know about table formwork heads?

A table formwork head is a specialized metal component installed at the top of a support prop. Its specific design ensures that horizontal scaffolding beams fit securely into place.

What are the uses of table formwork heads?

Table formwork heads act as connectors. Installed atop adjustable steel props, they provide stable support for primary beams and formwork panels.

What are the advantages of table formwork heads?

Table formwork heads are essential for constructing safe, stable concrete formwork platforms. They allow for height adjustment of the shoring system and facilitate the rapid assembly and dismantling of steel-propped formwork systems.

Which scaffolding system do table formwork heads belong to?

Table formwork heads are used with adjustable steel props or shoring frame systems to securely support primary beams and formwork panels.

What materials are used to manufacture table formwork heads?

Table formwork heads are made of steel to ensure the durability and strength required to withstand heavy loads; the steel surfaces are treated with anti-corrosion coatings or paint to enhance resistance to corrosion.
