Background
Infrastructure development in Indonesia is the second
priority after education. This proves that construction
activities are expected to continue to grow in line with
developments in Indonesia. The implementation of
activities has positive and negative impacts. One of

the negative impacts is the waste generated from

wood concrete. Therefore, innovations are needed that
can replace wood for concrete formwork so that it can
provide non-recyclable wood waste.

01 Corn Cob
The ratio of Hepiyanto and Mohammad Arif Firdaus
(2019) examined the use of corn cob ash in substituting
cement. From the research it was concluded that the use
of corn cob ash as much as 8% can increase the
compressive strength of concrete by 54.9%.

Adrian Philip Marthinus et al (2015) conducted a study by

adding fly ash as a cement substitution. From this study, it
was shown that the addition of fly ash to the concrete
increased the load carried by 35.83%..

Fibers
The next research is research conducted by Angga
Onky Perdana et al (2015). In this study, fiber fibers

capacity of the structure. In his research, it was found
that the addition of fiber fibers to concrete can

Processing the main material by carrying out different

treatments for each waste, such as filtering fly ash using
a sieve no. 200, burning corn cobs and then filtering the
ashes using a sieve no. 200, and cutting palm fiber

After 24 hours from the day of casting, the Permanent Formwork is then removed from the
mold and given a moist curing treatment by wrapping the test object with a wet cloth and

Compressive Strength Test

Figure shows the compressive strength of concrete using the Universal Testing
Machine (UTM) and Compression Testing Machine (CTM). The test was carried out
using a cube specimen measuring 50 x 50 x 50 mm and a cylinder with a size of 100 x
200 mm which were fabricated at the time of casting.

Installation and How it Works

In its use, Permanent Formwork does not need to be dismantled so that it can
contribute to increasing the capacity of the structure. The installation of this
product:
• Permanent Formwork is casted first and cured for 28 days.
• Separately, fabrication of reinforcement bar is carried out according to the
needs of the structure. For beam reinforcement consists of tensile

reinforcement, compression reinforcement, and shear reinforcement (stirrup).

• Reinforcement is installed in Permanent Formwork. At the time of installation,
it does not require concrete decking. Here's the difference from the
conventional method. Thus, the use of Permanent Formwork can speed up
processing time (efficient).

Benefits for Users

The creation of this product is certainly a new beginning for
the construction industry in Indonesia. Not only does it
provide benefits for building owners by minimizing the use
of costs, this product is also able to have a positive impact
on workers because it facilitates and speeds up the

construction process where this mold, which initially had to

be assembled and required a long process, can now be used
in only 3 processes.
Not only in the world of construction, this product is
expected to be a reference for further academics in
developing wood molding substitutions.

CONCLUSION
Based on the results of the activities, the following
conclusions were obtained:
• From the test data, Permanent Formwork has a fairly high
strength, namely an average of 12.2 MPa, where this high
compressive strength can play a role in carrying dead loads,
reinforcement, and concrete.
NFT Point.

• From the test data on normal concrete, it shows that the average
compressive strength of normal concrete is 32.5 MPa, so this
"Permanent Mold" is able to effectively increase the strength of
structural elements where the strength is almost half the strength
of normal concrete.
• The use of Permanent Formwork can also reduce the number of
cracks in the beam. This is the effect of the use of palm fiber
which can inhibit the rate of crack development.
