    Different types of formwork: how to choose the one that suits you best

    The formwork is something being used in concrete constructions as a “mould”, where concrete is poured in. Formwork types vary in materials, for instance, or elements to be built. Thus, they can also be named after the type of construction of structural elements such as the ones for walls, slabs, formworks for beams, for pillars for beams and columns, etc.

    Concrete Formwork – Conventional Vs. Engineered

    As a construction contractor you know the importance of good equipment for safety and efficiency. The right concrete formwork can reduce the headaches on your job that prevent smooth work flow. It’s important to consider how the differences between conventional and engineered formwork play into this equation. This is especially true considering the fact that construction formwork is 20 to 25% of the cost of structures built with concrete.

  • An Overview of Concrete Forming Technology

    An Overview of Concrete Forming Technology

    Reinforced concrete is, by a large margin, the most widely used building material on earth - by mass, we use as much reinforced concrete as every other material combined. One reason for this volume of use is concrete’s versatility - because concrete is placed as a liquid, it can be used to form structures of virtually any size and shape. Placing concrete thus requires some way of forcing the liquid concrete into the shape that you want it to take. This is traditionally done with concrete molds called forms or formwork [1]. Liquid concrete gets poured into the formwork, it solidifies [2], and the formwork is removed, leaving behind solid concrete in the shape of your structure.

    Wood has been the concrete contractor’s formwork of choice for years. It’s relatively inexpensive and easy to understand, light weight, can be easily cut to size, and easy to replace and dismantle. However, lumber formwork also has its disadvantages. It has limited usage and cannot be reused on one job to the next. Wooden formwork also been known to absorb water from concrete when dry, reducing the strength in concrete structure. On the other hand, lumber with too much moisture can compress wet concrete and cause cracks when shrinking occurs.
