Beam Formwork in Construction

Formwork is nothing but a mould for concrete to be settled down until it is hardened. Fresh concrete is poured in between the formwork sheets. Once the concrete solidifies, de-shuttering is done. Formwork is a temporary structure and generally, it is not demonstrated in the drawings. Types of formwork for concrete construction are based on the material of formwork and the type of structural element.

In beam formwork, the process is to produce a box surrounded by frames at the perfect size of the beam and fasten it firmly on the kicker left from the base or at the last phase of beam concreting. The box is detained in an exact position with steel column clamps or bolted yokes and supported with timber studs or props.

Aluminium beams are fabricated as telescoping units which allows them to span supports that are located at varying distances apart. Telescoping aluminium beams can be used and reused in the construction of structures of varying sizes.

Nova Formworks is a leading company in India in the development of formwork systems manufactured from composite plastic material. We have been operating in India for the last decade and have served some of the major builders, and contractors in the country. We offer plastic formwork systems which are of pristine quality and help in increasing the efficiency, cost-effectiveness & reducing the time of construction.

The construction of beam formwork requires time as well as it spends nearly 20 to 25% of the structure’s cost. It is one of the key factors that influence that construction’s success in terms of cost, speed, quality, and safety. So what are you waiting for?
