FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Plastic slab formwork is a reusable system used to support and shape fresh concrete during slab construction. It provides a practical alternative to conventional formwork for concrete slabs and typically consists of panels, beams and props.

The system is designed for slab thicknesses from 100–500 mm, depending on the applicable configuration and project requirements.

The standard panel size is 600 × 1220 mm, with a square-frame configuration for slab construction.

The specified load capacity is 15–25 kN/m², depending on the applicable system arrangement.

The system weighs approximately 18–22 kg/m², supporting practical manual handling during installation.

The system uses 40 × 40 mm and 40 × 80 mm square-pipe primary beams, along with adjustable props. Standard prop spacing is 1.2–1.5 m, subject to the required support arrangement.

The panels are designed for 100+ reuse cycles with proper handling, cleaning, storage and maintenance.

The specified assembly time is approximately 30–35 minutes per 20 m² section with 3 workers, depending on site conditions and system configuration.

The specified early-stripping period is 4–7 days. Actual stripping should be based on the required concrete strength, structural requirements and the approved site procedure.

It is suitable for applicable residential, commercial and industrial slab construction, including floor and roof slab applications within the system's specified requirements.
