The precast slab lifting beam is a lifting device designed for the handling of reinforced concrete precast slabs on construction sites. CIPAL designs it to meet the specific requirements of the construction sector. It thus ensures stable and constraint-free lifting of precast slabs, preserving the integrity of the component throughout every operation.
Precast slab lifting beam — even distribution of forces
The CIPAL precast slab lifting beam is available in monorail H or frame architecture depending on site constraints. Its pulley and sling system distributes forces evenly across the entire slab. It therefore prevents any deformation or cracking caused by unbalanced lifting. Fixed or adjustable suspension points furthermore adapt to different slab formats without complex intervention.
An integrated turning function
This beam furthermore incorporates a turning function. It thus enables precast slabs to be turned for loading or unloading as required on site.
Varied applications in construction and precast concrete
The precast slab lifting beam suits a wide range of applications in the construction sector. It is particularly suited to the handling of reinforced concrete precast slabs on residential building sites, the loading and unloading of slabs at depot or onto lorries, the turning of precast slabs for installation or storage in precast concrete workshops, and the handling of hollow core slabs or large-format concrete panels. Its robust design and standardised engineering furthermore enable fast manufacturing and short lead times to meet urgent site requirements.
The engineering department sizes each lifting beam according to the specific constraints of the application. It takes into account the type of lifting equipment, frequency of use and the operating environment. Every unit is moreover delivered with a complete technical file: operating instructions, structural calculations and CE marking.
