Doka Projects — Formwork Solutions in Action

A selection of construction projects where Doka formwork and shoring systems have been deployed. Each case study highlights the forming challenges, the systems selected, and the outcomes achieved on site.

Supertall tower construction with Doka self-climbing formwork
Featured Project

Central Meridian Tower

Location: Dubai, UAE

Height: 387 m (78 stories)

Systems Used: Self-climbing platform, wall formwork, slab tables

The Meridian Tower required a 5-day floor cycle on a Y-shaped core geometry with variable wall thicknesses. Doka engineered a three-sided self-climbing rig that advanced independently on each core leg, allowing staggered pours and continuous steel-fixing below the active deck. Total cycle time from level 3 to roof was 14 months, with no lost-time incidents on the formwork crew.

More Reference Projects

Cable-stayed bridge pylon construction with Doka formwork
Infrastructure

Riverside Crossing Bridge

Location: Stockholm, Sweden

Twin 98-meter pylons formed using a combination of self-climbing platforms and custom radius panels. The pylon geometry transitioned from rectangular at the base to octagonal above the deck, requiring three different panel configurations per climbing cycle.

Water treatment facility construction with Doka circular formwork
Industrial

Northfield Water Treatment Plant

Location: Melbourne, Australia

Four 32-meter diameter clarifier tanks poured using adjustable-radius wall formwork. Doka's curved panel system reduced the number of joint lines from 48 per tank (conventional) to 16, cutting waterproofing costs and improving surface finish uniformity.

Multi-tower residential development with Doka slab formwork
Residential

Greenway Park Residences

Location: Toronto, Canada

Three 28-story residential towers on a shared podium. Doka provided 4,200 m² of table slab formwork and drop-head props, enabling a 4-day floor cycle with a six-person forming crew per tower. All 84 typical floors completed in 11 months.

Tunnel lining construction with Doka tunnel formwork
Infrastructure

Alpine Transit Tunnel

Location: Innsbruck, Austria

2.4 km of rail tunnel secondary lining formed with Doka's hydraulic inner formwork carriage. The system repositioned overnight, allowing daily 12-meter pours. Total lining duration: 8 months, with concrete temperature monitoring confirming thermal crack control per EN 1992.

Hospital construction project with Doka formwork systems
Commercial

Lakeside Regional Medical Center

Location: Houston, USA

Six-story hospital expansion with post-tensioned slabs and complex MEP penetrations. Doka table slab forms were pre-marked for 380+ slab openings per floor, reducing field layout time by approximately 40% compared to conventional stick-built formwork.

LNG tank foundation construction with Doka heavy-duty formwork
Industrial

Eastport LNG Terminal

Location: Doha, Qatar

3.5-meter-thick ring foundations for two LNG containment tanks. Doka supplied heavy-duty shoring towers rated for the 85 kN/m² hydrostatic head generated by the mass concrete pours. Embedded cooling pipes were positioned between formwork cycles to manage thermal gradients.
