Formwork
Formwork is temporary or permanent moulds into which concrete or similar materials are poured. Traditional timber formwork is built on-site out of timber and plywood or moisture resistant board. Engineered Formwork systems is built out of prefabricated modules with a metal frame. Stay-In-Place Formwork systems are assembled on site, usually out of prefabricated insulating concrete forms.
The formwork stays in place (or is simply covered with earth in the case of buried structures) after the concrete has set, and may provide thermal and acoustic insulation, space to run utilities within, or backing for finishes. Formwork can also be manufactured out of cardboard which is disposable formwork and used by the building trade for column, circular and pillar moulds.
