Steel structures are commonly used for high-rise buildings, long-span structures, industrial and warehouse buildings, and temporary structures due to steel's strength, light weight, speed of construction, and ability to create large spaces. Steel structures have advantages such as strength, flexibility, ductility, stability, earthquake resistance, and lighter weight compared to other materials. However, steel loses strength at high temperatures and is susceptible to corrosion. Common steel sections include angles, channels, I-beams, T-beams, round/square bars, and plates. Steel connections are made through bolting, riveting, and welding. Portal frames provide wide spans and are lightweight but require large members and cranes for erection.

2. What is Formwork?
ā¢ Formwork in construction is the use of support structures and moulds to
create structures out of concrete which is poured into the moulds. Formwork
can be made using moulds out of steel, wood, aluminium and/or
prefabricated forms.
ā¢ Formwork is an ancillary construction, used as a mould for a structure. Into
this mould, fresh concrete is placed only to harden subsequently.
ā¢ The construction of formwork takes time and involves expenditure up to 20
to 25% of the cost of the structure or even more.
ā¢ The operation of removing the formwork is known as stripping. Stripped
formwork can be reused. Reusable forms are known as panel forms and non-
usable are called stationary forms
3. A good formwork should satisfy the following requirements:
ļ· Easy removal Rigidity
ļ· Economy Smooth surface
ļ· less leakage Strength
ļ· Quality Supports
ā¢ Easy removal :Construction of formwork should permit removal of various parts in desired sequences
without damage to the concrete.
ā¢ Economy :Material of the formwork should be cheap, easily available and should be suitable for reuse
ā¢ less leakage :The joints in the formwork should be tight against leakage of cement grout.
ā¢ Quality: Material of the formwork should not wrapper get distorted when exposed to the elements
4. A good formwork should satisfy the following requirements:
ā¢ Rigidity :Rigidly constructed and efficiently propped and braced both horizontally and
vertically, so as to retain its shape sequences without damage to the concrete
ā¢ Smooth surface : The formwork should be set accurately to the desired line and levels
should have plane surface.
ā¢ Strength : Strong enough to withstand all types of dead and live loads.
ā¢ Supports : As light as possible and Should rest on firm base.
5. Categories of formwork
ā¢ Conventional:
The formwork is built on site out
of timber and plywood or moisture-
resistant particleboard. It is easy to produce but time-consuming for larger
structures, and the plywood facing has a relatively short lifespan. It is still used
extensively where the labour costs are lower than the costs for procuring
reusable formwork. It is also the most flexible type of formwork, so even where
other systems are in use, complicated sections may use it.
ā¢ Modern-Day Formworks: This formwork systems are mostly modular, which are designed for
speed and efficiency. They are designed to provide increased accuracy and minimize waste in
construction and most have enhanced health and safety features built-in. The main types of
formwork systems in use now are:
1- System column formwork 2- Horizontal panel 3- Slip form 4- Tunnel form
6. Categories of formwork
Engineered/Pre-fabricated Formworks:
ā¢ This formwork is built out of prefabricated modules with a metal frame (usually
steel or aluminium) and covered on the application (concrete) side with material having the wanted
surface structure (steel, aluminium, timber, etc.). The two major advantages of formwork systems,
compared to traditional timber formwork, are speed of construction and lower life-cycle costs (barring
major force, the frame is almost indestructible, while the covering if made of wood; may have to be
replaced after a few ā or a few dozen ā uses, but if the covering is made with steel or aluminium theform
can achieve up to two thousand uses depending on care and the applications).
7. Steel formwork
ā¢This consist of panels fabricated out of thin steel plates stiffened
along the edges by small steel angles.
ā¢The panel units can be held together through the use of suitable
clamps or bolts and nuts.
ā¢The panels can be fabricated in large number in any desired
modular shape or size.
ā¢Steel forms are largely used in large projects or in situation where
large number reuses of the shuttering is possible.
ā¢This type of shuttering is considered most suitable for circular or
curved structures.
8. Steel formwork

9. plywood formwork
Timber for formwork should satisfy the following requirement: It should
beā¢well seasoned
ā¢ light in weight
ā¢easily workable with nails without splitting
ā¢free from loose knots
Timber used for shuttering for exposed concrete work should have smooth
and even surface on all faces which come in contact with concrete.
ļ· Sheeting for slabs, beam, column side and
beam bottom 25 mm to 40mm thick
ļ· Joints, ledges 50 x 70 mm to 50 x 150mm
ļ· Posts 75 x 100mm to 100 x 100mm
10. Plastic formwork
ā¢ Glass reinforced plastics (GRP) and vacuum formed
plastics are used when complicated concrete shapes are
required (e.g. waffle floors).
ā¢ Although vacuum formed plastics will always need
support, GRP can be fabricated with integral bearers
making it self supporting.
ā¢ Like steel, plastic formwork can be re-used many times, as
long as care is taken not to scour the surface whilst
vibrating the concrete.
11. Aluminum formwork
ļ· Often used in pre-fabricated formwork, that is put together on site.
ļ· Aluminium is strong and light, and consequently fewer supports and ties are required.
ļ· The lighter sections will deflect more, but this can be avoided by simply following the
manufacturers recommendations.
1. It can be used repeatedly with low average use-cost.
2. Construction is Convenient and Effective.
3. Saving on Construction Time.
4. Wide Application.
5. No construction Garbage on Site.
6. Flexibility.
7. Good stability, high bearing capacity.

15. Erection sequence for a column
Prior to positioning column formwork check that steel for the colum
n has been inspected and cleared for casting.
- Position formwork for the column from predetermined grids.
- Plumb formwork both ways and securely support using adjustab le steel props.
- The propping angle should be 45Ā° to the floor.
- Ensure the steel props are safely secured to the column formwo rk and the floor, and that
adjustment for pushing and pulling is operational.
- Set out the positions of column clamps from a storey rod.
- Transfer the column clamp positions from the storey rod on to - column formwork.
-
16. - Use nails to support the arms of column
clamps while wedging.
- Position and wedge the bottom, middle
and top clamps sets.
-
- Check the formwork at the top for
square.
-
- Position and wedge the remainder of the
column clamps.
-
- Using a plumb bob suspended from a gauge block plumb the column.
17. Circular and octagonal column
Circular column formwork
ā¢ Fabricated steel, usually two piece, and of
ten with a hinge.
ā¢ Fibre cement pipes which are left in place
as permanent formwork.
ā¢ Timber sheathing tied with standard colu
mn clamps. Corners need to have infill pie
ces. Alternatively, metal strap can be use
d without the need for corner infills.
18. Erection sequence for a column
ā¢ Beam soffit must be thickened timber or strengthe
ned plywood.
ā¢ Beam sides 18mm plywood or 25mm boards, with
studs (cleats) at 500 to 600mm centres.
ā¢ Deep beams (over 600mm) should have walkers an
d ties.
ā¢ Use angle fillets in the beam side to soffit joint wh
ere possible.
ā¢ Allowance must be made for height adjustment of
the props or false work.
Erection sequence for constructing beam formwork
includes
ā¢ Position of sole plates;
ā¢Marking out and setting heights for false works;
ā¢Assemble and position props, adjustable head jacks,
false works , bearers and Spreaders;
ā¢Construct and erect side walls and beam soffit.
20. Column bracing formwork
ā¢Column formwork bracing performs two functions:
ā¢It must maintain the accuracy of the column form position and plumb so that it is
within tolerance.
ā¢Withstand results of forces acting on either the column formwork or the bracing. Th
e forces may be wind or impact. These impact forces can occur from the collision of
concrete buckets or cranes hoisting materials
21. Form work for stairs
ā¢Points to consider when designing stair form work:
Stair formwork must support the weight of concrete the weight of the throat
of the stair and the steps will have to be supported.Because of the slope of the
stair, some of the force i s transmitted sideways. All formwork must be well
tied together to prevent sideway movement.Consider the finish of the stair
treads and type of no sing. Space may have to be left for purpose made n osing.
22. FAILURE OF FORMWORK
ļ¼Formwork failures are the cause of many accidents and failures that occur
during concrete construction which usually happen when fresh concrete is placed
ļ¼Generally some unexpected event causes one member to fail, then others
become overloaded or misaligned and the entire formwork structure collapses
ļ¼Improper stripping and shore removal
ļ¼Inadequate bracing
ļ¼Vibration
ļ¼Unstable soil under mudsills, shoring not plumb
ļ¼Inadequate control of concrete placement
ļ¼Lack of attention to formwork details ļ¼Inadequate cross bracing and horizontal
bracing of shores
ļ¼Forms sometime collapse when their shores/ jack are displaced by the vibration
caused by:
23. ā¢ passing traffic
ā¢ movement of workers & equipment on the formwork
ā¢ the effect of vibrating concrete to consolidate it
