Abstract

A climbing support subsystem usable with a self-climbing system for multi-sided cores having three walls or an otherwise non-rectangular or non-square building core.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A climbing support subsystem for use with a self-climbing system, comprising:
a plurality of guiding shoes configured to engage with one or more slabs of a multi-wall core, each of the guiding shoes having a bearing surface;
at least one front vertical support member configured to engage with a support frame of a self-climbing system;
at least one rear vertical support member configured to engage with the support frame of a self-climbing system; and
a plurality of braces extending between the at least one front vertical support member and the at least one rear vertical support member,
wherein, during a climbing operation, the at least one front vertical support member is configured to bear against the respective bearing surfaces of the plurality of guiding shoes.

2. The climbing support subsystem of claim 1 , wherein the multi-wall core comprises a three-walled core defining an open face.

3. The climbing support subsystem of claim 1 , wherein the respective bearing surfaces comprise roller bearing surfaces.

4. The climbing support subsystem of claim 1 , further comprising a temporary truss configured to engage with walls of the multi-wall core.

5. The climbing support subsystem of claim 1 , wherein:
the at least one front vertical support member comprises a plurality of front vertical support members, and
the at least one rear vertical support member comprises a plurality of rear vertical support members.

6. The climbing support subsystem of claim 5 , wherein the plurality of front vertical support members bear against a plurality of second bearing surfaces of the temporary truss.

7. The climbing support subsystem of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of braces engages with both the at least one front vertical support member and the at least one rear vertical support member.

8. The climbing support subsystem of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of guiding shoes are configured to engage with the slabs in a clamping arrangement.

9. The climbing support subsystem of claim 1 , wherein the climbing support subsystem is configured to be disposed within the multi-sided core.

10. A self-climbing system comprising:
a plurality of working brackets configured to engage with walls of a multi-sided core to support a support frame;
a plurality of climbing brackets configured to engage with walls of the multi-sided core; and
a climbing support subsystem, comprising:
a plurality of guiding shoes configured to engage with a slab of a multi-wall core, each of the guiding shoes having a bearing surface;
at least one front vertical support member suspended from the support frame;
at least one rear vertical support member suspended from the support frame; and
a plurality of braces extending between the at least one front vertical support member and the at least one rear vertical support member,
wherein, during a climbing operation, the plurality of front vertical support members are configured to bear against the respective bearing surfaces of the plurality of guiding shoes.

11. The self-climbing system of claim 10 , further comprising:
a plurality of climbing cylinders configured to engage with the plurality of working brackets and the plurality of climbing brackets.

12. The self-climbing system of claim 11 , wherein the plurality of climbing cylinders comprise single-stroke hydraulic climbing cylinders.

13. The self-climbing system of claim 10 , wherein the climbing support subsystem is disposed within the multi-sided core.

14. The self-climbing system of claim 10 , wherein the at least one front vertical support member is engaged with the support frame.

15. The self-climbing system of claim 10 , wherein the multi-wall core comprises a three-walled core defining an open face.

16. The self-climbing system of claim 10 , wherein the respective bearing surfaces comprise roller bearing surfaces.

17. The self-climbing system of claim 10 , wherein the climbing support subsystem further comprises a temporary truss configured to engage with walls of the multi-wall core.

18. The self-climbing system of claim 10 , wherein:
the at least one front vertical support member comprises a plurality of front vertical support members, and
the at least one rear vertical support member comprises a plurality of rear vertical support members.

19. The self-climbing system of claim 18 , wherein the plurality of front vertical support members bear against a plurality of second bearing surfaces of the temporary truss.

20. The self-climbing system of claim 18 , further comprising a second support frame suspended from the support frame by the plurality of front vertical support members engaged with the support frame and the second support frame and the plurality of rear vertical support members engaged with the support frame and the second support frame.

21. The self-climbing system of claim 10 , wherein each of the plurality of braces engages with both the at least one front vertical support member and the at least one rear vertical support member.

22. The self-climbing system of claim 10 , wherein the support frame extends between two parallel walls of the multi-sided core.

23. A method of operating a self-climbing system relative to a multi-side core, comprising:
disengaging at least one working bracket from at least a first anchor point of the multi-side core;
climbing the at least one working bracket and at least one support frame engaged with the at least one working bracket,
during the climbing, guiding a plurality of front vertical supports suspended from the support frame via a plurality of guiding shoes engaged with at least one slab of the multi-side core;
engaging the at least one working bracket with a second anchor point of the wall section of the multi-side core above the first anchor point;
disengaging at least one climbing bracket from a third anchor point of the multi-side core; and
climbing the at least one climbing bracket to the second anchor point.

24. The method of claim 23 , wherein during the climbing of the at least one working bracket, the plurality of front vertical supports bear against a bearing surface of the plurality of guiding shoes.

25. The method of claim 24 , wherein the bearing surface comprises a roller bearing surface.
