FORMWORK . INTRODUCTION. FORMWORK is a mould or open box, like container into which fresh concrete is poured and compacted. When the concrete is set, the FORMWORK is removed and a solid mass is produced in the shape of the inner face of the FORMWORK . The top of the FORMWORK is normally left open. Falsework is the necessary support system that holds the FORMWORK in the correct position. FORMWORK FOR concrete . STRUCTURES SHOULD BE. 1. Strong enough to resist the pressure or the weight of the fresh concrete plus any constructional live loads. 2. Rigid enough to retain the shape without undue deformation. 3. Economical in terms of the total cost of the forms and the concrete surface finishing when required. 4. Sufficiently watertight to avoid leakage at the joints. FORMWORK ECONOMY.
FORMWORK ECONOMY In order to reduce the cost of formwork for concrete structures the following are to be considered: 1. Design the formwork to …
