FORM - WORK CLADDING

SLAB FORMWORK AIR GAP AND SPACER BATTEN

SHEATHING
Slab formwork essentially supports the weight of the concrete
during the curing process and when the concrete slab is
positioned on permanent supports. Bases (also known as
FULLY BREATHABLE MEMBRANE,
sills) are required that are made from wood or metal and POLE HOUSE REFLECTIVE IN WARM AND HOT CLIMATES
these bases support the vertical stringers which in turn
JOIST
support the horizontal joists. The horizontal joists create a flat
WALL FRAME AND BULK INSULATION
surface where timber, plywood, steel sheets, aluminium or
fiberglass can be used as a base onto which the concrete is STRINGER INTERNAL LINING
poured.

In most cases, formwork can be re-used and the method of

removing the formwork once the concrete has been set is
known as stripping. After the formwork has been stripped, it
must be cleaned to ensure the faces of the panels remain
straight and there is no built-up of concrete. Reusable forms WALL FRAME

are known as ‘panel forms’ while non-usable forms are known CLADDING
as ‘stationary forms’. SHORES

WEDGE
Wall formwork used for concreting of shear or RCC wall in
dams, wing walls, basement rcc walls etc. Wall shuttering
made up of vertically arranged upright timbers (bearers) to BRICK VENEER
TIMBER SPACER
which plywood sheeting boards are nailed at the inner side.
The upright timbers are diagonally braced with the help of
BOLT WITH NUT HEAD
boards at both sides.
STRUTS AT EQUAL WOOD FORMS
SPACING REBAR
It is extremely low as compared to the other concrete
because the actual forces are very low against it. BOARDING
WIRE SNAP TIES
The panel on both sides has been put in position, the tie is
used as a spacer.
WEDGE
Wall support systems are usually sloped at satisfactory
intervals. BRACINGS CONCRETE WALL
