Abstract: Handling equipment is provided to facilitate the placement, removal and repositioning of large form sections that are supported by a plurality of composite trusses. The trusses themselves are made up of chords, struts, couplers, connectors and brace components of standard sizes cooperatively interconnected to provide composite trusses that may be of various length and height. Deck panels and supports therefor are mounted on a plurality of trusses to provide a complete section of forms that is used and moved unitarily. The job site longitudinal movement of sectional forms of large size is aided through use of a plurality of tilting form glides while cross dollies provide unidirectional or multidirectional movement patterns for trusses which they support. One tilting form glide component provides distributed loading support for the chords of trusses as the sectional forms are moved longitudinally or outwardly past the edge of a building, or it can optionally provide, together with cross truck and track components, a lateral moving capability for the form sections.
