Comparison and Analysis of Common Formwork Types in Construction Engineering
Comparison and Analysis of Common Formwork Types in Construction Engineering In recent years, the construction industry has developed rapidly, which has brought a larger and more diversified use of building formworks. Nowadays, building formworks can be divided into the following formwork types. 1. Steel formwork Steel formwork can be divided into small steel formwork and large steel formwork. The average weight of the small steel mold is about 50-60kg/m2, and mechanical equipment must be used for hoisting. There are also more seams when used, so the frequency of use in existing projects has decreased. The average weight of the large steel mold can reach more than 100kg/m2, and it is completely dependent on mechanical hoisting in use. The advantage is that there are fewer splicing joints and the overall flatness of the concrete is high. The steel formwork needs to be actively maintained during on-site use, or the surface quality of the concrete will be greatly affected. Large steel ...
