ULMA Solution

Project demands and deadlines were a key issue for the client. To meet the client’s demands ULMA project managers and engineers developed a large “flying” table that could be moved and cycled through the job site to reduce labor time while improving productivity for the customer.

The Mega VR table flying form table measured 15 feet by 38 feet and is based on ULMA’s versatile MK system. The Mega VR tables increase job site productivity as tables could be quickly moved into position in preparation for pouring concrete. They are and easily stripped in preparation for the next shoring phase of the project thus reducing crane time needed. This was the ideal solution for this project.

The Mega VR tables were assembled on site. Ease of use, increased site productivity, quick cycling of equipment and direct onsite service was the key to this project success.
