Abstract
A support head mountable on a support post for supporting a beam in a formwork system is provided. The support head includes a top member for contacting and supporting the beam, a base member mountable on top of the support post, and a pin. Each of the top and base members has a tube with opposing pin holes. The tubes are configured to form vertically extending telescopic tubes, with the pin holes aligned along a horizontal axis. The pin is insertable into the pin holes, and has spaced apart depressions thereon. The pin is slidably moveable in the pin holes from a first position to a second position. In the first position, the depressions are offset from the pin holes. In the second position the depressions are aligned with the respective pin holes thus lowering the first tube and the top member in height.
