Temporary formwork is used in construction to support fresh concrete until it cures. There are different types of formwork materials including timber, steel, aluminum, fiberglass, and plywood. Factors like strength, rigidity, cost, and number of reuses vary between each type. Formwork design involves sheets, studs, ties, and other components configured for walls, beams, slabs, columns, and decks based on the structural element. Slipforming is a specialized technique where formwork is continuously lifted as concrete is placed, allowing vertical structures like chimneys to be built without side forms. This method was used to rapidly construct tall building cores and highway pavement.

building construction
 To supporting the laying of concrete till it gets matured ,such as

5.  It should be well seasoned.
 It should be light in weight.
 It should be easily workable with nails without splitting.
 It should be free from knots.

6.  The steel forms can be put sufficiently larger number of re-uses.
 There is no danger of the formwork absorbing water from the
concrete and hence the chances of honeycombing are minimized.
 The quality of exposed concrete surface obtained by use of steel
form is excellent.
 Steel forms are stronger and having long life.

7.  It is possible to have perfectly plain and smooth surface by
use of plywood shuttering.
 By use of large size panels it is possible to effect saving in the
labour cost of fixing and dismantling.
 Number of re-uses are more as compared with timber
shuttering.

8. The formwork for R.C.C. wall consists of sheets, studs , braces,
wedges, M.S. tie bars , sole plate, stakes etc.

9.  The sheets are supported by vertical studs and horizontal Wales.
 The ties are provided to maintain the distance between the sheets
and to resist the bursting action of concrete.
 The small pieces of timber knows as spacers may be used and they
are to be removed as the concrete reaches that level.
 In addition the wire ties and bolts may be also provide.
 If bolts are used, they are to be provided with grease so as to make
their removal easy after 2 to 3 days of pouring concrete.

10.  The decking consists of plywood or
timber planks.
 The decking is supported on wooden
joists which are properly spaced
depending upon the loads to be borne
within permissible deflection limits.
 The maximum spacing of vertical
posts or shores deepened upon the
strength of stringers or the capacity of
shores to bear the loads.
 The vertical posts ,lateral supports,
shore braces, steel base plants and
wooden wedges , provide a strong
centering to beam and slab floor to
bear all the loads due to them.

11.  The details of formwork for
an R.C.C. beam which is
usually constructed
monolithically with slab.
 The boxes for beam consist
of two sides and one bottom
supported on vertical posts.
 These boxes are shaped to
the exact dimension of the
rib of the R.C.C. floor.

12.  Column box consists of two ends and two sides ,
each built as panel of planks sheeting. At top, cuts
are made if column is to receive girder or beam.
 The height of each panel is equal to the storey
height minus the slab thickness and the floor
sheeting.
 The width between two opposite panels is kept
equal to the actual dimension of the column plus
twice the thickness of sheeting.
 Yokes are equally spaced on both the sides and
ends. They project at both the ends by about 25
cm.
 Formwork components for any column are
require to be designed properly to resist high
pressure resulting from the quick filling of the
concrete.

14.  Slip form technique is a special technique of placing concrete.
 This technique is useful for vertical construction as well as horizontal
construction.
 In case of vertical construction like chimneys and silos, using slip formwork,
concrete is continuously placed, compacted and formwork is pulled up by
hydraulic jacks , giving reaction against main reinforcements. the rate of concrete
to withstand without the support of formwork. This technique is suitable for
uniform shaped structures.
 This technique was adopted for the core construction of Bombay stock exchange
building having irregular shape and may opening. This core of 380 feet tall
structure was completed in 38 days with formwork slipping rate of about 12.5 cm
per hour.
 The slip form paving method was first time adopted delhi-mathura concrete road
construction in1990.
 In the Mumbai- Pune six lane express highway construction and Ahmedabad-
baroda express highway construction slip form pavers were used.
