TYPES OF FORMWORK Types of formwork commonly used in Sydney construction in h frames and v-shore framework. • STEEL H FRAMES • V-SHOR FRAME SYSTEMS
STEEL H FRAMES • Steel H Frame formwork is utilised for many builds across the country and is commonly seen on Highrise sites and large construction projects. • They are a strong, reliable temporary structure erected at the base of your scaffold to form an even base for your project. • These temporary structures aid in levelling your build and providing you a base to move upwards.
V-SHOR FRAME SYSTEMS • A V-Shor Frame System gives the builder a versatile and flexible frame design that consists of 3 main components: Frames, Braces and Adjustable bases. • Its flexible design allows the engineer to increase or decrease frame grid positions relative to the concrete thickness that is to be supported. PAINTING • V-Shor is capable of carrying up to 35.1kN per leg which make it the ideal framework for highway bridges and other projects where large concrete slabs must be moved into place. • Formwork is paramount in Construction and it cannot be substituted by technology. The better the formwork and the easier it is to work with the safer the Construction site and the more time efficient the project becomes. More Information
