BT20 Formwork Beam, 2.90 m, Fully Protected – set of 50 pcs. (145 Linear Metres)

BT20 Formwork Beam, 2.90 m, Fully Protected – Set of 50 pcs. (145 Linear Metres)

BT20 Formwork Beam, 2.90 m, Fully Protected is a durable formwork beam designed for professional slab and wall formwork systems. Manufactured from high-quality C24-grade spruce timber and featuring a 27 mm three-layer panel web, it provides excellent rigidity and stability for reinforced concrete construction work.

This set includes 50 formwork beams, each 2.90 m long, giving a total of 145 linear metres. Full protective cladding with PPL profiles protects the beam edges against mechanical damage and helps extend its service life, even under intensive use on construction sites.

Key Advantages of the BT20 Formwork Beam

• Durable construction – C24-grade spruce timber provides strength and stability during use.
• Rigid web – the 27 mm three-layer panel web increases the overall stiffness of the beam.
• Full PPL protective cladding – protects the beam edges against damage and wear.
• Versatile application – suitable for slab and wall formwork systems.
• Convenient set of 50 pcs. – a total length of 145 linear metres makes it easier to plan and prepare materials for construction projects.
• Reusable design – proper handling and storage help maintain the beams' performance over multiple work cycles.

Applications of the 2.90 m BT20 Formwork Beam

BT20 beams are used as load-bearing components in formwork and shuttering systems. Their design allows them to transfer loads occurring during reinforced concrete construction, provided they are used in accordance with the formwork design and the system manufacturer's guidelines.

Typical applications of BT20 beams include:

• ✔ slab formwork and reinforced concrete floor slabs,
• ✔ wall formwork and vertical structures,
• ✔ supports and walers in formwork systems,
• ✔ construction of floor slabs, beams and other reinforced concrete elements,
• ✔ professional use in residential, industrial and infrastructure construction projects.

Beam spacing, support spacing and permissible loads must always be selected according to the specific application, technical design and documentation supplied by the formwork system manufacturer.

Technical Specifications

* The stated load-bearing parameters should be verified against the manufacturer's current technical documentation before using the beams in a formwork design.

Full Protective Cladding – Additional Beam Protection

The fully protected BT20 beam features edge protection provided by PPL profiles. This cladding helps reduce the risk of mechanical damage during transport, handling, installation and dismantling of formwork components.

Additional protection is particularly important when equipment is used intensively on construction sites. It helps keep the beam edges in good condition and improves resistance to typical wear and tear.

How to Use and Store BT20 Formwork Beams Correctly

• ➤ Check the technical condition of each beam before use, paying particular attention to the timber, web and protective cladding.
• ➤ Do not use beams with cracks, permanent deformations or damage that could affect their load-bearing capacity.
• ➤ Use the beams in accordance with the formwork design and the formwork system manufacturer's recommendations.
• ➤ Avoid impacts and improper lifting that could damage the beam structure.
• ➤ Store the beams on a level, stable surface, limiting their exposure to moisture and dirt.
• ➤ Clean the beams after use and prepare them for safe storage.
