GKS Floor-forms are manufactured out of 14 gauge HR Sheets (2 mm THICK) with press-folded flanges and stiffeners. Gussets & angles are welded onto the corners in order to maintain squareness of the edges even after considerable usage. The overall design ensures high rigidity and strength to weight ratio.
GKS Floor-forms are manufactured to convenient standard sizes that almost always meet the requirements of the project sites.
Non-standard floor-form sizes & different HR sheet thicknesses for heavyduty & light-duty applications can be offered on request.
GKS Adjuster Floor - forms are recommended to fill up gaps in the slab centering, thus eliminating the need for timber altogether.
Standard Adjusters are made in widths of 375 mm and lengths of 1150 mm, 900 mm, 800 mm & 600 mm.

GKS Heavy Duty adjustable steel props are manufactured out of Dia. 50 NB and Dia. 40 NB ERW pipes of "C" Class thickness conforming to IS: 1161 GradeYST22.
The threaded portion of GKS Beam Props is formed using a state of the art “Thread - Rolling” facility.
This unique manufacturing method ensures 100% interchangeability between the threaded pipes and the SG cast - iron nuts. Added to this, rolled threads are known to be much stronger and have better wear resistance & surface hardness ensuring a longer life-span of GKS props at projects
GKS Heavy Duty Beam Props are manufactured to convenient standard sizes that are usable for a wide range of slab heights. Non-standard sizes as well as props made out of "B" Class pipes can be offered on request.

For slab heights ranging from 5 - 6 meters, the use of conventional standard prop sizes is most often not possible.
In such cases, GKS Fixed Prop Extenders coupled with standard GKS Beam Props serve as an ideal solution to meet the additional height. In such arrangements however, provision of brazing in both directions is essential to ensure safe transfer of loads upto 2MT.
Heights : 2000, 1830, 1500 & 1000 mm.
Widths : 915, 1220, 1530 & 1830 mm.
GKS All Purpose Scaffolding Units (APS Units) consist of two verticals and one horizontal cross bar, both manufactured out of Dia. 40 NB 'B' class ERW pipes. The sockets for vertical buildup of APS Units are made out of Dia. 50 NB 'B' class ERW pipes conforming to IS 1161 GradeYST22.
The unique feature of GKS APS Units is the provision of lugs, welded at 500mm centres, which provide the necessary flexibility required to achieve any convenient height when used as access scaffolding. The Lugs also provide positive support to the horizontal cross bars.
Horizontal cross bars are designed with unique three-way coupling clamps welded at both ends to clamp the ledger pipes connecting the units.

The GKS system of Wall-Form Shuttering provides the end-user with the highest degree of cost to benefit while ensuring an excellent concrete finish. Our Wall-Form systems can be used for the construction of RCC Walls, Columns, Beams, Floors, Culverts, Docks & Precast units.
GKS Wall-Form Shuttering systems consist of Standard Panels, Channels or Heavy Duty Soldiers, Pipes or Channel Walers. All these components are assembled together by four types of specially designed clips.
Our Wall Form Panels & Soldiers are manufactured out of MS Slotted Angles of 45x45x5 mm and 12 SWG (2.5 mm thk) MS Sheets to make them rigid & strong.
In cases where Wall-Form Shuttering is required to achieve a curved profile, GKS flexible Wall-Forms are the best option.
The Waler Tubes are bent to suit the curvature of the specified profile. GKS Flexible Panels match this curvature when connected to the waler tubes by Single Clips.
GKS Double Adjustable Panels / Splines are the ideal solution when it comes to filling up of any gaps between Flexible / Standard Panels. GKS Splines can be used to fill gaps in both straight wall / curved wall construction.
