Assessment
What is Formwork?
Shuttering Tie-rod
Tools Used in Timber formwork
Wood Cutter
Crowbar
Hand saw
Qualities of Formwork
It should be water tight.
It should be strong.
It can be reusable.
Quality
Safety
Economy
Quality:
Forms must be designed and built with sufficient stiffness and
accuracy so that the size, shape, position, and finish of the cast
concrete are maintained.
Safety:
Forms must be built sufficient strength and factor of safety so that
they have the capable of all supporting loads.
Economy:
Forms must be built efficiently, minimizing time and cost.
Three stages in the process :
a) Assembly and erection .
b) Concrete placement.
It consists of
Timber sheeting
Vertical posts
Horizontal members
Rackers
Stakes
Wedges
It consists of
Ledger
Standard
Diagonal Bracing
Base Jack
Universal Jack
U Head Jack
Marine Plywood
White Wood
Timber Beam.
Lintel or Beam Formwork
FORMWORK FOR SLAB:
Formwork for Stairs
It consists of
Vertical & inclined
posts
Inclined members
Wooden Planks or
Plywood for Decking
Stringer
Riser Planks
Stiffeners
FORMWORK FOR STAIRS:
Time of Removal of
formwork
Sr. Period of Time
No Structural Member
In simply supported we
have to remove the
support from the mid
span to the ends.
To meet the design
behavior.
Walls and Columns
Jack Supports need to be removed from one face Column / Wall .
Anchors / Clamps to be removed.
Tie rods to removed completely.
First detach the Shorter Span Shutter
Detach the long span Shutter from one side the column / walls with
the help of Crane / more man and place it in properly in a leveled
surface.
Remove the jack from the other face and move the shutter into a
leveled surface.
The shutters need to be cleaned and Stack Properly.
Maintenance of formwork
Due to continuous use Plywood & steel plates
surfaces become uneven and require maintenance.
Tie rod holes must be repaired
For steel formwork plates must be leveled by mallet
and loose corners must be welded.
Cost of formwork
It is non absorbent.
No shrinkage of formwork
occurs.
Easy to use.
Dead load
Self weight of formwork
Pressure and loads from fresh concrete
Reinforcement
Imposed load
Construction workers
Stacking of materials
Horizontal loads
Environmental loads
Accidental loads
Wind loads
