N E T The HV DECKING SYSTEM provides a rapid, versatile and efficient means of casting onsite concrete decks in a wide variety of applications. Lightweight and easy to use, HV comprises just 3 main components and can be erected and dismantled by a team of two operatives without the need for special tools, making it one of the least labor intensive systems on the market. With all erection and dismantling undertaken from beneath the deck itself, HV minimizes requirements for working at height and makes a major contribution to site safety. The system’s modular nature simplifies the entire process, naturally creating a 1.8 m (6 ft.) grid that self-sets. This simplicity in use, combined with the system’s drop-head, allows for early stripping and re-use of beams and panels, thus enhancing site productivity while maintaining automatic back propping. Versatility is also a key feature of the HV; columns, wall corners, curved walls and many other potentially problematic features can be accommodated with ease by means of simple positioning and adjustment of panels and infill beams. Features and Benefits • Lightweight components facilitate rapid erection and dismantling • Enhances safety on site • Minimizes labor requirements and costs • Self-sets to save time • Early stripping maximizes equipment re-use • Single panel with GRP synthetic cover • Continual back-propping improves productivity HV Components The HV panel decking system comprises 4 main components: 1. HV Prop 2. Drop Head 3. Primary Beams 4. Secondary Beams HV-Prop • HV-Prop up to 10 ft. extension • HV-MAXI Prop up to 14 ft. extension Drop-head • Hot dip galvanized steel • Fixed to prop with 2 speed thread bolts • Fast stripping by cam action mechanism • No special tools – hammer only required for stripping Primary and Secondary Beam • Lightweight, high strength aluminum • Durable construction • Easy, fast and safe handling Main and Secondary Beam Flexibility with Main and Secondary Beams Main Beams 2.40 m (8 ft.); 1.80 m (6 ft.) and 1.15 m (4 ft.) Secondary Beams 1.80 m (6 ft.) and 1.15 m (4 ft.) The same colors are on the beams for easy identification.

FORMING & SHORING HV DECK SYSTEM The HV panels can slide along the main beams right up to the wall (cantilevering max. 6" beyond the center-line of the drop-head) so that erection of the formwork can start in a corner. Only a few props required Ideal bay 1.8 x 1.8 m = 35 sq ft up to 14" slab thickness with HV-props Make-up panels Full infilling without gaps is achieved by changing the direction of the span and shifting the positions of the main and secondary beams. This simple principle avoids the need for costly make-up panels.
