HAND-E-FORM ®
 HANDSET FORMING SYSTEM
EFCO’s handset solution is HAND-E-FORM®. The EFCO HAND-E-FORM system is the most
versatile handset forming system on the market today. Used in over 25 countries all over
the world, cost-conscious contractors are quickly realizing the benefits of this forming
system and its best value and lowest in-place concrete cost features. The real cost of
forming concrete is the cost of the forms plus the cost of using.
The EFCO HAND-E-FORM system is low cost, easy to use, and supplied for general-purpose
concrete construction. This means the system is ideal for:
• straight walls • walls with brick seat offsets

• round tanks • tunnels
• foundations • culverts
• cut up areas • columns
• abutments • and many, many more
The only limitation to the EFCO HAND-E-FORM system is the imaginations of the architect,
engineer, and the contractor.
The simple mechanics of the HAND-E-FORM system enables construction crews to quickly
learn how to assemble and cycle the equipment. HAND-E-FORM panels are lightweight and
conveniently sized. Even the largest panel can be set and stripped with one crew member.

basic methods of moving. These are the EFCO Crazy

Releasing Loads and Moving Large Modules Pour to Pour The modular steel Z-BEAM® stringer is used over the
shore to pick up the loads and concentrate them over
Even with a good plan in place to release heavy shoring loads on an E-Z DECK® system, the torque required the shore head. To maintain shores in a vertical position,
to release the load is directly proportional to the applied load on the E-Z DECK Wing Nut. EFCO also offers an adjustable swivel head when there

The E-Z DECK Jack Wrench delivers the necessary release force to both arms of the Wing Nut simultaneously modular and with its moment end connection, can be

The moment end connection develops the full strength
