Did you know 42% of construction delays stem from formwork failures? Imagine losing $18,500 daily on stalled projects. Traditional wooden formworks crack under pressure – literally. But what if your concrete slabs could be built faster, stronger, and cheaper?
(formwork for concrete slab)
Our ASTM-certified steel formwork systems deliver 3x faster installation than wooden alternatives. With 8mm reinforced panels and military-grade locking joints, you get:
Feature | Wood | Plastic | Our Steel |
---|---|---|---|
Max Span (ft) | 12 | 18 | 32 |
Setup Time (hrs/100sf) | 4.5 | 3.2 | 1.8 |
From rooftop slabs to industrial floors, our modular systems adapt. Need 6" thickness? 12" embeds? Curved edges? We've engineered solutions for:

A: Formwork provides temporary support and shape for freshly poured concrete slabs until they gain sufficient strength. It ensures structural accuracy and prevents deformation during curing.
A: Steel formwork offers higher durability, smoother finishes, and faster reuse cycles compared to wood. However, it has a higher initial cost and requires specialized handling.
A: Proper alignment, adequate bracing for weight distribution, and water-tight joints are critical. The system must withstand concrete pressure and construction loads without deflection.
A: Yes, high-quality steel formwork can typically endure 50-100+ uses with proper maintenance. Its modular design allows easy disassembly and reassembly across sites.
A: Formwork should stay until concrete reaches 50-70% of design strength, usually 3-7 days depending on mix and climate. Always follow engineer specifications for removal timing.
