Mit #einhäuptigen# Kletterschalsystemen (SSC Systemen) ist es möglich, die hohen Lasten aus dem Betongewicht (Querkraft auf Anker) und die Differenzkräfte aus dem Frischbetondruck in die Aufhängepunkte der Konsolen abzuleiten.

Diese Verformungen können durch die Verwendung eines Stützbocksystems zur #einhäuptigen# Lastabtragung vermieden warden.

single headed


Explanation:
I have found "4-way heads" "lowering head" "supporting heads" in English, and from the German descriptive text, I assume it would be safe to talk of "single headed" climbing formworks or systems. These latter can come in several varieties.
