1. INTRODUCTION
Formwork is the surface, supports and framing used to define the shape of concrete
until it is self-supporting.
Formwork includes:
identify hazards
assess risks that may result because of the hazards
decide on control measures to prevent, or minimize the level of the risks
implement control measures
monitor and review the effectiveness of the measures
Control measures must be the order of priority before other work commences.

2. DESIGN
2.1 BUILT-ABILITY
The design of the final concrete structure can have a major effect on the ease of
formwork construction, and consequently, on the safety of persons during
construction. Generally, the more basic and simple the final concrete structure,
the safer it is to erect using formwork system.
2.2 DOCUMENTATION

2.3 ON SITE PLANNING
All parties involved at the project site shall coordinate and cooperate with each
other during the planning and preparation stage to determine and safeguard the
system of work based on risk assessment and control process. An effective
quality control system must be implemented for the construction of formwork.
Materials and components that are damaged or excessively worn must not be
used.
-6-
3. SITE COORDINATION & ADMINISTRATION
The risk to a person’s health and safety must be considered when designing a
work program for erecting, altering and/or dismantling formwork. At the very
least consideration must be given to : -
3.2 STORING
Wide work area is to be identified and set up for the unloading of the
formworks material and accessories. It should be properly fenced up and
security shall be of up most priority due to the high value in the secondary
aluminum market
-7-
- ensuring mechanical aids are used to handle loads wherever possible
- storing loads on trolleys to minimize double handling or on raised
platforms to minimize manual lifting from ground level
- having adequate storage space or lay down area to safely store
materials and equipment and to minimize double handling
3.3 MANPOWER

3.4 ON SITE TRAINING
All persons who may be exposed to workplace health and safety risks
resulting from formwork construction must be provided with information
and training that is specific to the formwork system.
3.5 ACCESSIBILITY
Designated access ways must be provided and be kept clear and free of
obstructions because of the constantly changing work environment,
-9-
restricted access through frames and supports and due to the large quantity
of formwork materials and accessories. Persons must be instructed to use
the access ways and keep them clear of any rubbish, plant or materials.
Emergency access and egress must be considered and provided to all parts
of the worksite where persons are required to work.
3.6 HAZARDS
Minimise the working heights for persons performing the assembly and
dismantling formwork.
- 10 -
Do not allow drop stripping of formwork as it is an unsafe practice.
- 11 -
4. FORMWORK ERECTION
Based on the approved construction drawings, the project surveyor shall ensure
that the guideline and foundation level are properly set up, marked and peg for
walls, column etc. Leveling must be checked prior to commencement of
formwork installation to ensure accurate positioning.
Cleaning of panels especially the concrete contact surface and side panel
of the formworks after each usage should be done immediately using
proper tools.
Ensure that the concrete contact surface of formworks panels are properly
coated with recommended Mould or Form Oil (a concentrated concrete
form release agent) which are diluted either with water, kerosene or fuel
oil (depending on manufacturer specification) that will chemically reacts
with the alkalies in concrete to form a slippery soap film that prevents
from sticking and concrete buildup on aluminum form surfaces. It protects
and prolongs the useful lives of the aluminium formworks.
Ensure that the following steps/precautions are taken when applying the
Mould or Form Oil on the formwork panels : -
- The best results are obtained when a uniform application of Form Oil
is applied immediately following stripping and subsequent cleaning
of the panels. Always ensure that the coated form surfaces are
allowed to dry prior to placing concrete.
- Do not over apply. Excess Mould or Form Oil, runs and puddles can
adversely affect performance and should be picked up promptly with
rags.
The above steps should be repeated before the next cycle of usage.
- 12 -
4.3 OTHER TRADES - REBAR, M&E & PLUMBING
The support works such as rebar, Mechanical & Electrical (M&E) and
plumbing are to commence immediately once the set up is completed and
confirmed by the project surveyor.
The support works for the slab section commence after the slab formwork
panels are assembled.
Spacers should be fixed to both sides of the rebar section for positioning
and eliminate the rebar from resting on the surface of the formwork panels.
Always commence wall erection from the external corner of the wall
section to ensure both joint external corner wall panels will support each
other for standing position. Pin and wedges are to be used to secure the
panels together. Always insert the pin from the inside out for easy
removal of pin after concreting.
Once the initial wall corner panels are assembled, place the wall corner
panels on the allotted set up position.
- 13 -
Commence to erect simultaneously the balance of the wall panels from
either side of the external wall panel.
Proceed to assemble the internal wall corner. Place these panels into the
correct position on the lines which were set up by the surveyor. Proceed to
assemble the balance of the internal wall at both sides.
The internal and external walls are to be held together by flat ties with the
flat tie sleeves (reusable) in between them. These flat tie sleeves which are
cut to exact length to maintain the wall thickness and are to be coated with
the Form Oil before each usage. By doing this, it will facilitate the
removal of the flat tie sleeves from the concrete upon striking process.
Additional wall panels or kickers are fixed on the external wall panels in
accordance to the required height for the formation of the slab concrete.
Check to ensure that the verticality of the kickers is correctly aligned.
The kickers shall remain at its position for the subsequent forming of next
level wall.
Fixed the slab corner panels to on top of the wall panels with round pins
and wedges. The position of the pins should be from top down to ease the
dislodging process.
The main beams to be flips up and end beams are fixed to the slab corner.
Prop to be connected with main beam by slot in prop to prop head.
The beams sections are accurately position to enable the slab panels to be
connected systematically.
- 14 -
Commence to assemble the slab panels from the corner section of the slab.
Subsequently, fixed the whole slab area by pinning the slab panels
together with the main beams (comprises of prop head, end and mid
beams).
Steel structure external working brackets are used to provide a work area
at the external wall section if required.
Once the first level is completed and external formwork panels removed,
fixed the external working brackets to the 1st floor level at position
slightly below the kickers which are fixed on 1st floor external slab.
The external working brackets are secured to the external wall section
from the inside using bolts and nuts.
Once all the external working brackets are put in place, timber planks and
strips are placed on the floors and railings respectively to create an
external working platform for the assembly of the subsequent level of the
external formwork panels and kickers.
Another set of external working brackets are later fixed on the subsequent
level using the method as prescribed above.
Once the subsequent level of external formwork panels are fixed, the
external working brackets at one level below are removed and moved to
the subsequent level. This process is repeated until the completion of the
subsequent floors.
- 15 -
By practicing the use of numbering system in combination with the colour
identification scheme, it have been proven to avoid confusion and assist in
the process of identification of panels position once they are transferred to
the next level/floor.
5. CONCRETING
Ensure that the position of the walls and column formworks are in
accordance with the set up marking.
Check the verticality and horizontality level of the wall and slab panels
respectively.
Ensure that all pins, wedges and ties are properly secured and tightened.
Re-check the opening such as door and window panels are correct.
- 16 -
During concreting, always ensure that immediate step is taken to remove /
clean all the excess concrete that is stuck on the back of the formwork
panels. Non removal will result in the formwork panels getting too heavy
and also the scrapping task after the concrete has dried up becomes more
tedious.
6. FORMWORK STRIPPING
Formwork panels shall be removed without damaging the concrete and tie
bar shield. Bars or other tools shall not be used as a lever against the
concrete in removing the formwork panels.
The appropriate time for the stripping of formwork panels will vary
according to the environment and type of concrete used. The formwork
panels of the wall, column and beam section can be usually dismantled
after 10-12 hours. However, this process shall subject to approval of the
project structural engineer after taking into consideration the grade of
concrete used, additional props stand ordered, etc.
Always ensure that the wall section panels are removed first follow by the
column and beam sections.
For safety reason, ensure that no workers are facing the pin and wedges
when removing using hammer. Pin and wedges removed are to be
collected and placed in containers to minimise lost and replacement.
- 17 -
Always ensure that all the formwork panels are to be properly cleaned and
applied with the Form Oil to protect the surface of the formworks before
re-used.
For the external wall section, the kickers on the upper portion of the floor
level shall remain intact to support and align the next level/floor of
formwork panels that are going to be assembled. The assembly of the
external formwork panels can be done by using the external working
platforms that are fixed to the wall areas.
The appropriate time for the stripping of formwork panels will vary
according to the environment and type of concrete used. The formwork
panels of the slabs section are usually dismantled after 36 hours. However,
this process shall subject to approval of the project structural engineer
after taking into consideration the grade of concrete used, additional props
stand ordered, etc.
The end beams and middle beams have to be removed first after
dismantling the wall panels. Proceed by removing the long pins and
wedges on the joint bars for the end and middle beams. However, the prop
stands are to remain undisturbed during this process to lend support for
the weight of the concrete slab.
Proceed to dismantle the slab panels by commencing from the end of the
slab area. Once the slab panels are dismantled, continue to remove the
slab corners.
The above steps should be repeated before the next cycle of usage.
