INTRODUCTION

fonnwork is a inouJd or die used to shape and [Link] the concrete

until it attains sufficient strength to calTY its own weight. The. fonnwork is a
kind of "baking tin", which holds the concrete until it hardens to attain the
required shape and size.

much on the fonnwork system.
• Fonnwork should be properly designed, fabricated, and erected to
receive fresh concrete.
• If fonnwork is not done properly the desired shape of concrete is not
possible.
• When concrete is compacted, it exerts pressure and the fonnwork
must be strong and stable to take this pressure_ The form should be
leak proof to retain the concrete & slurry.
• Accidents happen because offaultyformwork and scaffolding/staging_
• Proper care and attention to be paid-at all stages of form work in

construction

TRADITIONAL APPROACH

The traditional practice is to use ballies as supports for shuttering. This

)
practice is labour intensive, many times unsafe and unreliable. It does not
produce good quality of concrete surface necessitating plastering and
)
rendering. The reuse value of these materials is also very low.

since more reuses can be derived_ However, as they are heavy, manual
"fiilhdling and frequent shifting may consume excessive labour.

Steel and plywood formwork

Framework uses steel and plywood that acts as sheathing. Normally,

they are .in the form of panels of standard sizes with provisions for fixing
with adjacent ones. These panels are supported by steel flexural members
(walers or soldiers), which are supported by form ties in wall formwork, slab
staging and beam formwork. By using some suitable rigid clamping
accessories among panels in wall formwork systems heavy steel supporting
flexural members can be eliminated.

Steel,plywood and timber beams

, / I
, ~F

Plywood is used as sheatl:iifig. It is supp-oitea- iitregular intervals by

.timber beams, which are further supported by steel flexural and axial
members. Plywood with timber beams as their immediate supporting
members have ample flexibility to suit a wide range of form geometry.
Timber beams are light in weight and more in number, whereas steel is used
1
-') where higher strength is required. Systems, in which the timber beams are
.) engineered, produce good cost effectiveness. L&T uses glue laminated
timber beams called H-beams, in most of its applications.

RELEASE AGENT
• A release agent is required to prevent adhesion between concrete and
,)
formwork.
... Release agent is coated onThe'form surfaces by brush, Toller. or spray )
,.)
equipment before use. "
•. Release agents are more commonly known as mould oils or soap oils.
• As name implies, a release agent's main purpose is to act asa parting. )
"
agent and permit the forms to be easily removed away from the
concrete during striking. This helps prevent da.-nage occurring at both
form and concrete surfaces; a very important fact in concrete
,J
construction. Certain release agents provide further additional benefits
)
.f;.-
such as sealing effect on absorbent timber or ply forms, which produce
more uniformly colored concrete. When smooth impermeable forms' :J
are used they can help prevent the formation of blow holes on the ,J
concrete face.
------ --------- -- -- - - --- -- ---- ------- .- ----- -------~---------:---- \- . ---- --- -. -- - -

• There are several types of release agents and surface. sealers available.
These carry varying recommendations for use on different form
materials, which have smooth, textured or profiled surface finishes.
The engineer will decide the surface treatment to be used from the
previous experience of similar work. Where high quality of concrete
surface is required the supplier may be contacted for specialist advice .
prior to 'construction commencing, sample panels may be cast on the
job to test performance. t.

TYPES OF RELEASE AGENT

The three main types of release agents are
Neat oils with surfactant
. These are dark in color and consist of mineral oils of low viscosity with
small quantity of surfactant added. The surfactant increases the wetting
capabilities of the oil when applied to the form surfaces. Soap is a common
form of surfactant and its use as an additive in release agents help reduce the
formation of blowholes on the surface on the concrete. Neat oils with
. surfactant are a general puqibse· release agent which are found particularly
useful for steel forms but may be used for all types of formwork surface
except plastics such as GRP or polypropylene.
Mould Cream Emulsions
These are milky white in color and consist of water and emulsifying·
agents. Mould cream emulsion is an effective release agent and helps to
minimize blow holes. However it is only suitable for use on absorbent timber
or plywood forms. These generally need several coats of release agents to
seal the surface before they can be used for the first time .. Emulsion type .
release agents will freeze in winter conditions and also have a tendency to be
washed from form surface by heavy rain.
Chemical release agent
These [Link] yellow brown in color and consist of very low
viscosity oil containing a small amount of chemical additive. After
application the oil evaporates leaving a chemical deposit on the surface of
forms. This reacts with the concrete on formwork to provide excellent
release qualities. Chemical release agents are recommended for all high
quality work and can be used on any type of formwork surface. They are
resistant to removal by rain and can be left for long periods before placing
, the concrete yet still provide satisfactory release.

Application
)
.. Release agent shouM ~ applied with partieuIar eare and only. coated
on the surfaces in a thin uniform film.
• Nooe must be allowed to come in cOntact with ·any reinforcement or
construction joints.
• Careless excessive application is not only costly' and wasteful; it will
stain and seriously affect the durability of concrete surface.
• If too much is applied by mistake, the excess should be wiped off.
Formwork Sealers
• These. are paints, varnish~s, lacquers or other special impermeable
coatings, which are applied on form surface to improve their qualities.
• Sealers are normally referred to as barrier paints. They cover the form .
)
f!lce and edges with hard protective coating producing a surface .
resistant to abrasion and effectively sealed agamst' moisture
penetration. This treatment greatly increases the life of-forms.
• Sealers are mostly used on timber or plywood forms to help produces ()
quality concrete surface which are uniform in both color and surface
appearance.
• They must be applied only when the form surface is new, dry and has
not been previously treated with release agent: The most common type
of sealer is polyurethane resin; this is airdrying with a (;le~topale

yellow finish.
. ~/
• A minimum of two coatings must be necessary but the manufacture's
instruction must always be carefully followed.' When the surface
becomes damaged or scoured, from concrete abrasion the {orms must
be recoated. The forms must be prepared by removing illl traces of
release agent with detergent and the surface roughened with glass
paper before resealing.
