What is Formwork?
Formwork is an essential part of many concrete jobs as it serves as the mould for which fresh concrete is poured and left to harden. Timber and plywood are the most common types of material in forms although many other products can be used such as steel, reinforced plastics and other materials. When timber and plywood are used it is commonly referred to as shuttering. A specific grade of plywood is needed and it must be water resistant. When done correctly, a large amount of concrete can be poured at one time. As the forms are responsible for providing the overall shape of the concrete installation, it’s essential to use an experienced contractor.

- A firm base to rest on
- Capable of being removed without damaging the concrete
