GENERAL INFORMATION
1. A qualified person must accurately calculate the applied loads and select the appropriate form tying products and determine compatible tie spacings. 2. In form tying operations, proper installation practices must be maintained. Failure to follow approved practices, such as missing form ties, misalignment of form ties, incorrect form tie lengths, excessive pour rates, etc., can cause form failure.
3. NCA recommends the user of the information contained herein and the installer of our products adhere to the Canadian Standards Association CAN /CSA - S269.3 -M92 Concrete Formwork and American Concrete Institute -ACI 347 Guide to Formwork. The applied safety factor for a product will depend on the degree of hazard or risk involved in the product application. This safety factor is governed by national codes, local codes and / or by design professionals. With regards to concrete construction, onsite conditions such as, poor concrete placing technique, concentrated loads on the formwork, improper use of cranes or concrete pumping could increase the degree of risk. If such site conditions exist, the user must increase the safety factor to compensate. For most applications NCA suggests a minimum 2:1 safety factor for hanging accessories and stresses that this safety factor should be strictly adhered to or the application be reviewed by a design professional. The material included in this publication uses this 2:1 safety factor for convenience but also provides the ultimate capacities so other safety factors may be used where applicable. WARNING : Improper, careless and/or haphazard use of the products shown in this document can expose workers to extreme danger, injury and death. If uncertain about installations or use of any NCA product, contact the nearest NCA Sales office or Technical Department for explanations and/or recommendations. National Concrete Accessories products are manufactured according to strict specifications and are subject to numerous tests under a stringent quality control program. These products are designed to be capable of meeting or exceeding all necessary safety requirements for the concrete construction and forming industry. All product test data shown, were obtained through an independent testing facility or tests conducted by NCA. However, the performance of a quality product can be affected by the manner in which it is used in the field. Therefore, the following precautions should be taken by all involved persons. 4. To avoid crushed wales and/or bent Tyholders when using a double waler system, maintain a spacing between the walers comparable to the tie diameter being used plus 13 mm (1/2"). 5. Any welding required on a forming project should be performed by a certified welder. Bending or welding of high tensile steel products should not be permitted.

Note: NCA does not warrant any product that has been welded, altered or modified in any way after leaving an NCA plant or warehouse. After final inspection of location and alignment, telltale devices should be installed in strategic places on the formwork to facilitate detection of formwork movement during concrete placement. During concreting, the formwork should be continuously monitored by competent persons. These monitors should have a reasonable area of safety and a means of communicating problems or emergencies to the placement crew. 6. Never exceed listed product safe working loads. Note that all product load ratings shown in this bulletin are ratings for new or "as new" products only. Extreme caution must be exercised when using any product that is in other than new condition. Any reusable product that shows wear, misuse, overloading, corrosion or any other factor that would compromise its safe working load should be discarded. 7. Caution must be exercised when using washer devices to span double wales. Waler gaps are excessive when the washer device does not bear directly on the primary waler members. 8. NCA products are not to be applied or installed until the user and/or the installer has a clear understanding of the information contained within the appropriate product publication. All contractors must instruct their employees in the appropriate use and installation of NCA products. To avoid injury and possible form tie problems DO NOT CLIMB ON FORM TIES. Over-vibration or re-vibration will cause lower concrete to remain in a liquid state for an extended period of time. This can cause excessive lateral form pressure and possible form failure Plumbing of the form, after concrete placement, should not be attempted. It is virtually impossible to force a form back into position if it is misaligned or has bulged during concrete placement. Runways for moving equipment should be provided with struts or legs as required and be supported directly on the formwork or structural member. Formwork must be suitable to support such runways without intolerable deflection, vibration or lateral movement. 9. Do not interchange products supplied by other manufacturers with those supplied by NCA. NCA cannot guarantee that products supplied by others will be compatible and/or interchangeable with NCA's quality concrete accessories. 10.Drawings and/or sketches shown in this bulletin are for illustrative purposes only. Check actual forming conditions for specific applications. Metric values listed are a soft conversion of imperial values.
The information contained herein supersedes all previous versions printed prior to this edition and is based on data and knowledge considered true and accurate. NCA reserves the right to update information without notice. Please read all statements, recommendations or suggestions in conjunction with NCA's condition of sale which apply to all goods supplied by NCA. No statement, recommendations or suggestions is intended for any use that would infringe any patent or copyright.
NOTE: For applications not specifically identified herein, approval in writing is required by the NCA Technical Department for special applications and uses of NCA products.

NCA Snap-Tys are fabricated to fit either prefabricated panels or built-in-place forms. They are specifically designed for quick, easy and accurate erection of light formwork. End sizes can be as short as 32 mm (1") for Steel Washer Snap-Tys or as long as you need them to fit a special condition. Snap-Tys can be fabricated for any required wall thickness up to 6 m (19'-6") in length. Spreader washers are precisely located to give exact wall thicknesses. Break points are located at specified distances back from the wall face to permit clean stripping without spalling. All standard Tys are manufactured to provide set back from the wall face. The small Ty holes and washer indentations are easily pointed, grouted or plugged. Consult the Technical Department for minimum wall thicknesses. For exposed concrete or where a longer set back is required, the NCA Space-TyTM is suggested. Snap-Tys are stocked in 120 mm or 211 mm (4" or 8") ends for standard wall thicknesses.

TYSCRU
The NCA Tyscru is an extra strong, resistance welded Ty designed to take the abuse encountered in medium and heavy concrete construction. An extremely simple Ty, capable of many combinations and uses in the field, it may be used with or without Tycones or combined with Continuous Threaded Lagstud to form an Adjustable Tyscru. Determining your Tyscru Requirement Tyscru: The Tyscru length is determined by subtracting each set back requirement from the wall thickness at the tie location. Lagstud or lagstud bolt length is determined by adding the form thickness to the set back on one side plus the Tyscru coil length plus 13 mm ("). Lagstud or Lagstud Bolt are furnished standard in even 50 mm (2") lengths. Select the next higher full unit over actual length determined. For extreme adjustment requirements, 25 mm to 50 mm (1" to 2") may be added.

TYSCRU
Wall thickness: Distance between the form facings at the Tyscru location. Set Back: Required distance of Ty metal from the finished concrete face with or without the use of Tycones. Set back may be required at one or both faces, usually both. Total set back is the sum of set backs from both wall faces. When Tycones are used, their length is equal to the required set back.
Form Thickness: Distance measured between the finished concrete surface to the outside face of the flat washer includes plywood sheeting material, studs, wales and washer. Coil Penetration: Distance the Lagstud should penetrate the Tyscru coil length plus 13 mm ("). General instructions: For extreme penetration or extended concrete curing requirements, the Lagstud or Lagstud Bolt is normally greased to facilitate removal. To break the bond and permit easy removal, it is a good practice to turn the lagstud or lagstud bolt a quarter to one-half turn, in and out, eight to twelve hours after the concrete has been poured.
The minimum Lagstud Bolt length required is equal to the sum of the flat washer, waler studs, form ply, set back and the coil length plus 13 mm ("). Plumb Wall Form

Drop-In Anchor
The lag thread NCA Drop-in Anchor features an internally threaded all-steel shell, with an preassembled expansion cone insert. The Drop-In Anchors are designed to work as part of the forming system, matched to the thread of NCA Lagstuds or Lagbolts. The Drop-In Anchors are made from carbon steel and electroplated galvanized for corrosion protection. The Drop-in Anchor is used for any application requiring anchorage in solid concrete or homogeneous igneous rock. Ideal for lagging, NCA Drop-In Anchors are also effective for hanging bolting or anchoring application with NCA Tylags, Lagstud Bolts or Lagstud. Not recommended for uncured concrete (less than 7 days old), lightweight concrete or masonry block or brick.

NCA suggests a minimum safety factor of 2:1. On site conditions such as, poor concrete, placing technique, concentrated loads on the formwork, improper use of cranes or concrete pumping could increase the risk. If such site conditions exist, the user must increase the safety factor to compensate. For anchoring situations not associated with forming, industry practice is to apply a safety factor of 4:1 minimum. For applications of greater risk a larger safety factor may be selected. For edge distance and load reductions contact NCA technical representative. Specifications subject to change without notice.

For permanent anchorage of fixtures to concrete 3:1 Computed Load to Ultimate Strength For lifting of pre-cast elements 4:1 Ultimate Strength to Dead Load. For Falsework support 3:1 Working Load to Ultimate (concrete plus form and liveload allowance). For temporary form anchorage: 2:1 Working Load (computed load plus liveload allowance) to Ultimate Anchorage Strength (as related to concrete strength). The following are recommended reductions in ultimate strength for use of 1" and/or 1" diameter Screw Anchors and Bolts in low strength concrete. For 3.45 MPa (500 psi) concrete use 33% of 13.7 MPa (2,000 psi) values. For 6.9 MPa (1,000 psi) concrete use 60% of 13.7 MPa (2,000 psi) values. For 10.3 MPa (1,500 psi) concrete use 80% of 13.7 MPa (2,000 psi) values. Note: For lifting and shear applications all bolts should be securely tightened and have a bearing plate or washer under the bolt head.

Preparatory Work: None Limitations: The NCA Wilson Anchor Sleeve is not recommended where high heat is used, such as inside an oven. Caution: When using the NCA Wilson Anchor Sleeve outdoors or under freezing conditions, the sleeve must be sealed around the bolt to prevent moisture penetration or filled with Antifreeze. Installation: The bottom of the sleeve is passed over the top of the bolt until the threaded portion engages the self-threading top of the sleeve. The sleeve is turned until the proper projection is obtained. The entire assembly is cast into the concrete, with the top of the sleeve at foundation level. When the anchor bolt is ready for adjustment, the top of the sleeve is cut off and discarded. The bolt may now be adjusted within the sleeve. Expansion or non-shrinking grout is cast into the sleeve around the bolt when equipment is set. Other applications are done in a similar fashion.
NOTE: Grout estimate based on .46 cu/ft yield per 55 lb of non-corrosive grout.

Determining total load To determine the total load to be supported by each falsework bracket, compute the total mass (weight of concrete) plus the liveload (weight of form and other temporary loads) and divide by the number of brackets to be used. Example: The dimension of a concrete beam to be poured over two columns and supported by 4 brackets is as follows: 750 mm wide x 1200 mm high x 18,500 mm long (30" wide x 48" high x 740" long) Density of concrete assumed Live load or mass per unit area assumed Mass of beam .75 m x 1.2 m x 18.5 m x 2400 Mass of live load .75 m X 18.5 m X 365 = = 2,400 kg/m3 365 kg/m2 (150 lb/Ft3) (75 lb/Ft2)
= 39,900 kg (18,100 lbs) = 5,065 kg (2,300 lbs) _________________________________ 44,964 kg (20,400 lbs) = = 441.10 kN 110.28 kN (99,100 lbs) (24,800 lbs)

Expamet Hy-rib
NCA Expamet Hy-rib is easily formed on the jobsite, making it adaptable to varying bulkhead conditions. Sheets allow quick tying of reinforcing. The thinness and flexibility of Hy-rib allows it to be used in dense rebar sections. It accommodates heavy bending and doweling of rebar more cheaply. This would be difficult to do with conventional plywood. With some construction joints, plywood is almost impossible to remove. With Expamet Hy-rib, the sheets remain in the concrete with no labour involved for removing the sheets.

APPENDIX
Ensure that internal vibration has not caused Snap-Ty Wedges to bounce around, loosen or fall off. It is important to properly position the Snap-Ty head and the wedge.
The Ty Head must not be positioned lower than the midpoint of the wedge. The proper Ty Head position is at the midpoint of the wedge slot, or higher.
Walers spaced too far apart may cause crushing of the wales or bending of the wedge, causing the form to bulge outward. Incorrect wall thicknesses will result and cause the Ty Spreader Washers or Cones to become embedded in the concrete. Embedded Ty Washers or Cones will make it difficult to break back the Tys.
102
APPENDIX
Ty cones and metal washers are used to act as form spreaders only. The wedge should not be overtightened by any method. Attempting to draw-up warped wales with the wedge should not be attempted. Metal spreader washers will bend out of shape and plastic cones will break if over tightening is attempted, resulting in incorrect wall thickness.
To achieve proper form structures, it is important that all form tys are installed and used properly. Excessive loads will be transferred to adjacent tys and can result in form failure if tys and/or their required hardware are omitted.
Ensure that form tys are properly aligned. Increased loads placed on form tys because of misalignment may cause form failure to occur. Also, reduced load capacities can result from form tys damaged because of misalignment during installation.
103
APPENDIX
The maximum space between double walers should be 13 mm (") more than the nominal diameter of a forming device being used ie He-Bolts, Taper-Tys, She-Bolts and Lagstud Bolts.
Wales may be crushed or washers may bend if too much space is allowed between the walers. Too much space causes the form to move outward and will result in incorrect wall thickness and spreader cones becoming trapped in the concrete. Incorrect wall thickness can also be caused from washers being deflected due to the increased lateral form pressure. Lag stud bolts and other lag thread products must have proper lag penetration. A minimum of one diameter of the bolting device past the coil is the proper penetration. As an example, a lagstud bolt that is 25 mm (1") in diameter should extend a minimum of 25 mm (1") past the coil. Form failure can result if threaded items are penetrated incorrectly. Excessive wear on the bolts first few threads are caused from improper penetration and the entire bolt load is placed on a smaller portion of the coil welds. The coil welds can fail and cause form failure because of this increased load.
104
APPENDIX
Do not force tys into position. Forcing the tys may damage the ty and result in form failure. Do not use incorrect length Tys and do not mix incorrect form Ty lengths with correct ones. Doing so will cause a transfer of lateral pressure to adjacent tys and may result in form failure. Do not use the form tys for climbing. Impact wrenches should not be used to tighten form tying devices. Do not vibrate the concrete excessively or the concrete at the bottom of the form will stay in liquid state longer than should be expected. The liquid state will cause a higher than expected lateral form pressure and could cause a form failure. The recommended rate of placement should not be exceeded. If the concrete at the bottom of the form is still in liquid state do not continue to place concrete. Form failure may result. Working parts below the specified requirements should not be used with forming accessories. Use accessories and hardware of proper length, diameter and capacity. If it is necessary to use a greater safety factor, the safe working load must be reduced accordingly. Use caution when welding any forming system component. Material properties may be affected by welding and result in lower product performance. A good working knowledge of materials, heat treating and welding procedures is required before welding any forming accessory. National Concrete Accessories does not guarantee any product altered in any way after leaving the factory.

As you increase the height of plastic concrete to the forms, the pressure will build at a rate of 150 PSF per foot of depth. This will be true as long as all concrete remains in a plastic state. Example: Ten feet of fluid or plastic concrete bears on the bottom foot of forms with a pressure of 10 X 150 lbs/ft3 or 1500 PSF.
Concrete cures and gains strength faster with an increase in temperature. Example: At 21 C (70 F), concrete sets in approximately 1 hour. At 4.5C (40 F) concrete will set up in about 1 hour.

Consult the National Concrete Accessories Technical Department when concrete strengths are less than 3.4 MPa (500 psi). Estimated practical load values are shown for various strengths of concrete. Safety factors (ultimate load: working load) is determined at 2:1. Use lighter anchor unit in concrete above 4.8 MPA (700 psi) for same load capacity. A good forming practice is to preload re-anchorage units to safe working load prior to pouring lift. Slippage will indicate inadequate concrete strength. This practice is especially critical in concrete under 3.4 MPa (500 psi). These are guide figures drawn from comprehensive tests and accumulated data, and performance will vary somewhat under different conditions. For specific job conditions a check test is recommended under field conditions after a selection is made. It is not considered desirable to plan canteliver operation below 2.7 MPa (400 psi). Type 50, cement jobs have run as low as 450 psi @ 7 days. Below 400 psi, cycle increases for 400 psi minimum are indicated as good procedures.
