Heavy Duty Truss System MK

Versatile truss system for the construction of large concrete spans between supports. Mainly oriented towards non-residential and civil engineering constructions. It features great flexibility and numerous configuration possibilities.
Versatile truss system for the construction of large concrete spans between supports. Mainly oriented towards non-residential and civil engineering constructions. It features great flexibility and numerous configuration possibilities.

The MK truss is a large load bearing base structure for large spans between supports. It is used as a formwork unit support for slab formwork, such as ENKOFORM HMK and ENKOFLEX beam formwork. It features great flexibility, with multiple possible configurations according to needs, both for non-residential constructions and civil engineering.

System components:

    • The MK truss is based on the joining of two triangular structures. Each triangular structure is configured by means of MK waler and junction joints, braced together. Trusses of various bearing capacities can be created with different lengths of walers.
    • Horizontal and diagonal braces are used to join two structures, creating a robust structure for multiple applications: MK gantry shoring truss, MK arch truss, footbridges, construction of large tilted slabs, etc.
  • Easy to adapt and reinforce according to project requirements
  • Simple handling and assembly, allowing construction deadlines to be adjusted
  • Walers can be handled without crane
  • Modular structure of interconnected walers. Capable of adapting to any project requirements
  • Adjustable to bridge shape, solves superelevations and slopes
  • Minimum number of ground shorings. Used with high-load bearing capacity shoring (MK-360 Shoring, MK-150)
  • Flexible and multifunctional: as bi-supported beam, as multi-supported continuous beam and as cantilever beam
  • Easy to be dismantled and shipped
  • Safe system: possibility of incorporate platforms and protection handrails
