U beam formwork is a customized steel mould system used for producing precast concrete U-shaped girders. It normally consists of side molds, inner molds, bottom molds, end molds, support screws, hydraulic components, working platforms, vibrators, access ladders, and other accessories. The system is widely used in urban rail transit and viaduct bridge projects where U girders are required for low structural height, good noise reduction, space efficiency, and modern appearance.
The U‑beam formwork system supports the growing use of U‑beams in urban rail viaducts, offering benefits like light weight, noise reduction, and space efficiency. Utilizing hydraulic inner molds, it produces high‑quality precast beams through one‑time pouring.
Made from high‑strength materials with adjustable sizing, the formwork is easily assembled, highly reusable, and provides universal forming application across varying U‑beam designs, delivering an efficient solution for modern viaduct construction.
>> Product Advantage
1. Formwork Composition: The precast U-beam formwork assembly comprises side molds, inner molds, a bottom mold, support screws, a spanning top structure, operational platforms, vibrators, access ladders, block plates, and related accessories.
2. Design & Safety Features: The U-shaped design provides partial encapsulation of the train, enhancing operational safety within the "trough." Acoustic panels on the beam walls absorb train noise, minimizing disturbance to adjacent areas.
3. Technical Design Highlights: The system employs a force-balanced design. The inner mold utilizes a hydraulic folding mechanism paired with a rationally designed hoisting system, ensuring stable and balanced lifting. Side mold stripping is reliable and convenient, facilitated by single-block nodal design. The bottom mold features a rotatable front section with a tapered profile for efficient piece placement. Additionally, the end mold is designed for easy detachment.

>> Product Uses
Here are four specific application scenarios of U beam formwork:
1. Highways & Major Roads: Used for the precast production of T-beams for bridges on expressways and national/provincial trunk highways.
2. Railways & Passenger Dedicated Lines: Used for the precast production of T-beams for railway bridges, including high-speed and heavy-haul lines.
3. Urban Elevated Roads & Interchanges: Used for the precast production of T-beams for urban viaducts, elevated expressways, and large-scale interchanges.
U Beam Formwork is a customized steel mould system used for producing precast concrete U-shaped girders in bridge, viaduct, metro, and urban rail transit projects. Compared with conventional beam mould systems, Precast U Girder Formwork is designed according to the beam section, span, casting yard layout, and project drawings, helping contractors achieve stable forming accuracy, smooth concrete surfaces, and efficient repeated casting.
As a professional U Girder Formwork solution, the system can include side molds, bottom molds, end molds, working platforms, support systems, vibrators, and hydraulic inner molds. The hydraulic U beam formwork design helps improve demolding efficiency, reduce manual operation, and support one-time concrete pouring for precast U girder production. For projects requiring strict dimensional control and high reuse performance, steel formwork for U girder construction provides better rigidity, durability, and long-term cost efficiency.
Our U Beam Mould and U Shaped Beam Formwork can be customized for different project requirements, including urban rail viaducts, light rail transit lines, municipal elevated roads, and bridge precast yards. Whether you need a U girder mould for urban rail transit, a custom U beam formwork for viaduct construction, or a precast U beam formwork for LRT project, the formwork structure can be engineered to match your drawings, production process, and on-site installation conditions.
For overseas contractors, bridge builders, and precast yards looking for a reliable U beam formwork manufacturer China, we provide project-based design, manufacturing, trial assembly, shipment, installation guidance, and technical support. Each precast concrete U beam mould is built to support efficient casting cycles, accurate alignment, reliable sealing, and consistent concrete quality throughout repeated use.
