Formworks

Foundation formworks can be designed in various ways. ❋ Peter Wehrmann (1993)

Similar to beam formworks, the sheeting of column formworks is prefabricated according to the column dimensions from sheeting boards connected by cover straps. ❋ Peter Wehrmann (1993)

Prefabricated formwork panels are indispensable for beam and column formworks. ❋ Peter Wehrmann (1993)

Prefabricated formwork panels, however, are also recommended for series production of foundation and ceiling formworks. ❋ Peter Wehrmann (1993)

In that case the construction of the panels differs from that of panels for beam and column formworks but the technology of prefabrication is the same. ❋ Peter Wehrmann (1993)

After cleaning, the cleaning holes of wall and column formworks are to be tightly closed since the maximum pressure of the concrete mix is occurring at the foot of the formwork where the cleaning holes are situated. ❋ Peter Wehrmann (1993)

This example serves for practising the prefabrication of formwork panels for beam and column formworks, in particular the prefabrication of a bottom panel for beam formwork. ❋ Peter Wehrmann (1993)

I am referring to lumber that is used in foundries, formworks, everything. ❋ Unknown (1989)

To increase the availability of lumber, what we have to do is substitute wooden formworks with steel ones. ❋ Unknown (1989)

We have to save a lot in lumber and, above all, we have to introduce steel in the formworks [encofrados] because steel can be used hundreds of thousands of times while lumber can only be used once or twice. ❋ Unknown (1989)

If the rolled metal is not treated well; if it's treated very badly, to make the formwork from sheet steel, it can take up to -- for 100 formworks -- if we try to regulate it, it can take up to 200 and if it's treated well, it can last up to more than ❋ Unknown (1988)

We have to know how to save because lumber can be used for two, three, four, or five formworks, depending on how it's used, depending on how its treated. ❋ Unknown (1988)
