High Strength Steel Frame Formwork For Large Scale Commercial Developments
Product Overview
Steel Frame Formwork is a robust, reusable system combining a high-strength steel frame with replaceable film-faced plywood panels. Designed for casting walls, slabs, and columns in demanding high-rise and infrastructure projects, it offers superior durability and cost-efficiency compared to traditional timber or all-steel solutions.
Key Features & Functional Benefits
- Exceptional Load Capacity & Rigidity: The welded steel frame (Q235/Q355) provides immense stiffness, safely withstanding concrete pressures up to 60-70 kN/m² with minimal deflection, ensuring precise dimensional control and a smooth concrete finish.
- Hybrid Economy & Easy Maintenance: The long-life steel frame (reusable 100+ times) is paired with replaceable plywood panels. This design drastically reduces long-term costs, as only the panels need periodic replacement, offering a lower cost-per-use than disposable systems.
- Rapid Modular Assembly: Standardized sizes and simple pin/wedge connections enable quick manual assembly without heavy machinery, significantly cutting labor time and crane dependency on site.
