Different Types of Formwork

  • Traditional Formwork: Made of timber or plywood, commonly used for small projects.
  • Engineered Formwork: Prefabricated systems (steel, aluminum, or plastic) for efficiency and durability.
  • Reusable Formwork: Designed for multiple uses, reducing waste and costs.

Factors to Consider

  • Load-Bearing Capacity: Ensure formwork can handle the weight of concrete and other loads.
  • Construction Speed: Choose efficient systems to accelerate project timelines.
  • Cost: Balance initial investment with long-term savings.
  • Environmental Impact: Opt for reusable or recyclable materials.
  • Project Complexity: Tailor formwork to project requirements.

Safety Measures

  • Stability: Properly brace formwork to prevent collapse.
  • Fall Protection: Install guardrails and safety nets.
  • Material Handling: Use cranes or hoists for heavy components.

Application Fields of Hollow Plastic Building Formwork Shuttering

1. Transportation industry: ships, airplanes, passenger cars, train cars, roofs, core layers of cars, interior decoration panels.

2. Construction and decoration industry: building exterior wall panels, interior decoration panels, building partitions for residences, offices, public places, commercial decorative frames, clean room panels, ceiling panels, kitchenware, and sanitary ware.

3. Advertising industry: screen printing, computer lettering, advertising signs, exhibition boards, and signs.

4. Industrial applications: anti-corrosion engineering in the chemical industry, thermoformed parts, plates for cold storage, special cold preservation projects, and plates for environmental protection.

5. Other uses: templates, sports equipment, breeding materials, seaside moisture-proof facilities, water-resistant materials, various lightweight partitions for art materials.

Features and Characterise of PP Hollow Construction Formwork Template

1. Good water resistance. Even if it is completely immersed in water for many days, it will not deform due to moisture. It will not rot and rust.

2. Incompatible with cement, sticky, easy to remould after construction, and will not be deformed due to cement adhesion.

3. High construction efficiency and good quality. The surface of the building constructed with it is smooth and flat, and no secondary modification is necessary.

4. Save working procedures and improve construction efficiency. At the same time, when the template is processed, the surface of the template can be preheated to obtain the desired wall pattern.

5. Light weight and convenient construction.

6. Long life and many times of repeated use. The finally damaged plastic template can still be crushed again and reprocessed into a new template, saving resources and meeting the requirements of "green industry".

7. Good thermal insulation, which helps shorten the construction period.

8. The method of adding wood can be used for various treatments, and welding can also be carried out, so secondary processing can be carried out flexibly at the construction site.

Usage of PP Hollow Construction Formwork

· Method of use plastic building formwork(PP architectural concrete used formwork 18mm) as well as wooden formwork, plastic building formwork reinforcement direction with batten direction placed in cross shaped.

· No need to smear the mould release agent before using building plastic formwork construction.

· When cast-in-place the flat plate, spacing between the keels should be 20 ~ 25 cm, and the spacing between the wall plate and keels should be 10 ~ 20 cm.Hollow plastic building formwork in construction don't need releasing agent.

· The seam-line between plastic building formwork in construction should be taped.

· The length of nail should not be too long, generally about 30 ~ 35 mm.

· The strength to drive nails should be moderate.

· When removing the reusable plastic formwork, please start from the small part of one end, the support and the plates should be removed at the same time aiming at preventing the template widespread drops, don't let the corner drop on the ground vertically.

· The plastic building formwork accesses to be mixed used with wood Formwork, bamboo formwork and other material formwork.

Cost Analysis of PP Hollow Construction Formwork

·  This system gives more than 50 repetitions; hence running cost is low. The final work will get smooth finish with minor joint line which does not require plaster. One can do putty & paint it. With this system one can save 16 / sq. ft. if you don't do plaster and hence it is cost effective.

· This system is made from special grade PP plastic and hence no chemical reaction take place nor the material stick to it. Because of this property you cannot get any patched on the RCC finish. Also the gap between two plates are so negligible that no water nor cement gets leaked out at the time of RCC & it gets curing from the bottom of the plate also, which enhance the final quality of RCC casting.

· Comparatively our foam systems are very less in weight compare to conventional M.S. Plate and Plywood. Hence it is very easy to install, dismantle, transport from one place to another. Due to easy plugging systems & east to fit makes this foam shuttering system most labour friendly.

Remoulding effect of hollow plastic template

· By using PP Hollow construction formwork one need not nail or apply oil to the plates before casting RCC. Due to auto levelling of plugging systems the plates are automatically levelled. Hence 30 % time is saves in assembling & also while dismantling the same.

· All existing traditional scaffolding systems can be use in PP Hollow Formwork comfortably. You can cast Slab, Beam & Column, etc. A lot of the parts in the Shuttering ply are supportive to each other and you can cast a beam from 9 inch to 21 inch by this same plate by simply adjusting the locking systems.

· After every usage of PP Hollow formwork once can easily clean the plates by water. Where as in M.S. plate one have to apply oil to clean the M.S. surface plates. In PP plastic shuttering sheet if any breakage occurs by mishandling it can be very easily sealed by low voltage hot GLUE GUN.
