One of our project carpenters awaits the arrival of a piece of formwork for the placement of a concrete wall.
'Msheireb Downtown Doha' is an urban renewal project in the heart of Doha, the capital city of Doha. Being carried out by Msheireb Properties and costing QR20 billion, the project has demolished 35 hectares of the old city, to create a new mixed use neighbourhood.
An example of a Cantilevered Channel Soffit supported by Soldier System Frames, attached to the All Steel Variable Radius Panel System.
The load from the soffit is sufficiently high that it requires additional support from the blue steel props to stop it from creating an adverse deflection in the soffit line.
The wall form and the soffit form were lifted out together by means of a lifting caddy that bolted direct to the Soldier frames with Full Moment connections.
This is the inside face formwork to a round tank wall poured complete with integral cantilevered channel soffit and weir wall.

Unfortunately, the aluminium plant finally closed in October 2012. In the words of the Australian Aluminium Council Ltd:
"The Kurri Kurri aluminium smelter began operation in 1969 and was acquired by Hydro, a member of Hydro Aluminium Group based in Norway, in 2002.
Hydro Aluminium produced various types of ingots which are used to produce a vast range of products, including roofing materials, foil, truck bodies, boats, doors, windows, commercial shopfronts, cables, tubing and many others.
Hydro Aluminium invested $40 million to upgrade the last remaining side-worked prebake technology in Australia. This upgrade was completed in November 2005 and aimed to significantly reduce emissions and increase production capacity by 6,800 tonnes per annum.
The Kurri Kurri aluminium smelter closed in 2012."
