INFORMATION SHEET NO. 2.1-2 MATERIALS FOR FABRICATING FORMWORKS

LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Upon completing this section, you should be able to KNOW the
DIFFERENT MATERIALS for FABRICATING FORMWORKS and FORMWORK DETAILS. A. Material
s used for Formwork Materials used for the construction of concrete formwork ran
ge from traditional materials such as wood, steel, aluminum, and plywood to nont
raditional materials such as fiberglass. Wood products are the most widely used
material for formwork. 1. Timber and Plywood Timber and plywood are the material
used most for formwork because it is high in quantity whereby the material is e
asy to get. Besides that , timber and plywood can be handled better because it i
s easy to cut it and fix as a formwork. This includes the easy handling of it .
2. Metal Panel Metal formwork has a very high reuse potential. So it is more eco
nomical than timber where repetitive work is necessary.
JZGMSAT QA SYSTEM
Page 8 of 33
3. Plastic (FRP) Another material used here is the fiberglassreinforced plastic

as a formwork. Its functions well because : Moldability Light weight Strength To
ughness
B. Construction of Forms consist of: 1. Plywood - It is made in thicknesses of 1
/4, 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, and 3/4 inch, and in widths up to 48 inches. The 8-foot lengt
hs are most commonly used. The 6/8- and 3/4-inch thicknesses are most economical
. 2. Supporters or studs - Vertical studs make the sheathing rigid. These studs
are generally made from 2 x 4 lumber. Studs also require reinforcing when they e
xtend more than 4 feet. 3. Braces - Braces give the forms stability. The most co
mmon brace uses a horizontal member and a diagonal member nailed to a stake and
to the stud or wale. The diagonal member of the brace should make a 30 angle with
the horizontal member. 4. Spacer - Spreaders must be placed near each tie wire.
Spreaders are cut to the same length as the thickness of the wall and placed be
tween the two sheathing surfaces of the forms. 5. Tie Wire - Tie wires hold the
forms secure against the lateral pressures of unhardened concrete. Double strand
s are always used. Ties keep wall forms together as the concrete is positioned.
The tie wire is made taut by twisting it with a smooth metal rod or a spike. 6.
Assorted CWN - refers to the different size of nail ranging from 1-4 (25 mm100 mm)
in length. C. Formwork detail for different structural members In concrete cons
truction formwork is commonly provided for the following structural members:

INFORMATION SHEET NO. 2.1-3 MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF LUMBER

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES of LUMBER. Basic understanding of mechanical properties o
f lumber is necessary for concrete formwork design. Wood is different from any o
ther structural material in that allowable stresses of wood are different accord
ing to the orientation of the wood. A. Bending Stresses The figure below shows a
simply supported wood beam with a concentrated load applied at the midpoint. Th
is process results in bending. The lumber is stressed internally to resist the e
xternal loads. Bending in a member causes tension forces in the extreme fibers a
long the face farthest from the load and causes compression in the fiber along t
he side closest to the applied load. The maximum stress induced in the fibers, w
hich occurs at the edges, is referred to as the extreme fiber stress in bending. Thi
s stress is highly dependent on the parallel-to-grain strength of the wood in bo
th tension and compression. B. Modulus of Elasticity (MOE) Modulus of elasticity
is a measure of stiffness. This factor (MOE) is a relationship between the amou
nt of deflection in the member and the value of load applied that causes the def
lection. The amount of deflection depends on the size of the member, the span be
tween the supports, the load, and the particular member specie of wood. The para
llel-to-grain MOE (i.e., the stiffness when wood is pushed or pulled parallel to
the wood grain) is about 30 times greater than the perpendicular-tograin MOE.
Bending stress

Page 14 of 33
C. Tensile and Compressive Strengths Tensile strength is a measure of the abilit

y of wood to resist pulling forces. On the other hand, compressive strength is a
measure of the ability of wood to resist pushing forces. For clear wood (wood w
ithout defects), the tensile and compressive strengths for parallel-to-grain loa
ds are approximately 10 times greater than for loads applied perpendicular to th
e wood grain.

INFORMATION SHEET NO. 2.1-4 ECONOMIC USE OF MATERIALS

ECONOMICS USE of MATERIALS Formwork is the largest cost component for a typical
multistory reinforced concrete building. Formwork cost accounts for 40 to 60 pe
rcent of the cost of the concrete frame and for approximately 10 percent of the
total building cost. Timber is an economical material of formworks construction
but it has a short life span. As the reusability of timber formwork is low and i
t can only be reused 8-15 times, several sets of timber formworks are needed for
a high-rise building or a large project. Hence, the cost of the formwork is hig
h in long run. Steel formworks might have the high cost at the beginning of the
construction but as steel formwork has a long lifespan and high reusability; it
can save the cost in long run. This is because less replacement of old formwork
is needed. It can save concrete volume needed because it can form a long span co
mparing to timber formwork. A. Tips for avoiding waste construction materials 1.
Study carefully the plan and detailed drawing. 2. From the given detailed drawi
ng, you can study its different parts, including sizes of these parts 3. Cutting
lumbers, always refer to the schedule of cutting 4. Always determine the method
s of measurement used in the plan for marking 5. Always remember the principles
for cutting measure twice and cut once 6. In cutting lumber and plywoods, always u
se effective tools.

INFORMATION SHEET NO. 2.2-1 FORM DESIGN

IMPORTANCE OF FORMWORKS, FACTORS INFLUENCING FORM DESIGN and FORM CHARACTERISTI
CS. Form is a temporary boarding, sheating or pan used to produce the desired sh
ape and size of concrete. The structural members of a building are built-up into
its desired shape and dimension through the use of forms which serve as mold fo
r the mixed concrete. Concrete mixture is generally semi-fluid that reproduces t
he shape of anything into which it is poured. Concrete form should be water tigh
t, strong enough and rigid to sustain the weight of the concrete. It should be s
imple and economically designed in such manner that they are easily removed and
reassembled without damaged to themselves or to the concrete. A. Form Design 1.
Importance of Formwork Protects the concrete Aids in the curing of the concrete
Supports any reinforcing bars or conduit embedded within it Represents up to one
-third of a concrete structure s total cost 2. Factors influencing form design N
ature of the structure Availability of equipment and form materials Anticipated
reuse of the forms Familiarity with construction methods that influence the form
work design Strength of the forming materials and the loads they must support Co
ncrete s final shape, dimensions, and surface finish B. Form Characteristics 1.
Ensure that the forms are tight, rigid, and strong. Loose forms permit loss of c
ement which can result in- Honeycombing. Honeycombing is when the concrete is not
satisfactorily consolidated or vibrated air pockets form within the concrete an
d present a pocked appearance. JZGMSAT QA SYSTEM Carpentry NC II Fabricating For

2. 3. 4. 5.
Sand streaking. Sand streaking occurs when concrete loses too much water due to
loose forms; the water carries sand with it through the gaps in the formwork and
causes streaking. Ensure that the forms are braced enough to align them and str
ong enough to hold the concrete. Take special care in bracing and tying down for
ms used for configurations, such as retaining walls. Ensure that the forms are w
ide at the bottom and taper toward the top. Ensure that wall forms are braced pr
operly. The concrete in wall forms, such as the first pour, tends to lift the fo
rm above its proper elevation. Reuse forms by constructing them in a manner that
allows easy removal and replacement with minimal damage.
