If your shuttering is heavy, you will always need a crane to move them which means that you will have to wait for crane availability, and lose precious time and money while doing so. So, youll save a lot of time if you go for shuttering that is as light as possible, meaning around 4 kilos per meter for the height of 150 mm, as then you can easily and safely move them, without any equipment or tools. For the very same reason easy handling choosing the lightest magnets possible, and ones that are not permanently attached to shuttering, is a smart decision.
Stepless adjustment to different wall thicknesses is a big plus. Again it saves time and of course money if you can handle most thicknesses with one and the same frame system. For example, Elematic FaMe shuttering system can handle thicknesses from 70 500 mm, with accessories even up to 800 mm.
If you need a hammer, a box wrench, screws or similar to attach the magnets, it of course means an extra step in the building process and every step takes time. So, its best to skip jigsaw puzzles and go for simplicity a magnet that works as it is, without any extras.
Are you using old tables? If yes, the surface plate may not be as straight and even as it once was, which may have an effect on the orthogonality of the side forms. You can correct this with shuttering but only if your system is equipped with an adjusting screw. Elematic shuttering system offers a possibility for adjustment within 89 91 degrees.
Precise design, guaranteed 90-degree-corners, and, once again, lightness of the molds are the features to go for. You can find a 1×1 m window mold that weighs less than 20 kilos and is guaranteed to hold its 90° corners in the Elematic system, for example. The corners and connectors in that system are cast aluminum parts that fit to all different profile heights with a universal T-bolt connection (H = 99, 119, 149, 199 mm).
Does the supplier hold stock for quick delivery of products? Do they have stock in the same continent? If yes, it is easy for you to get new items, replacements or spare parts to the system without long waiting times.
The form formwork in the concrete structure is used as a mold for the structure where the newly poured concrete is only subsequently poured to harden. The type of concrete formwork structure depends on the type of formwork material and structural elements. The form formwork can also be named according to the type of structural member structure, such as plywood formwork for slab and beam formwork, and column formwork for beams and columns.
The construction of the formwork takes time and costs as much as 20% to 25% or more of the structural cost. These temporary structures are designed for economic expenditure. The operation of removing the formwork is called peeling. The peeled formwork can be reused. The reusable form is called the panel form, and the unusable form is called the static form.

The material of the formwork should be cheap, easily available and suitable for repeated use. The formwork should be precisely set to the desired line, and the level should have a flat surface.
The concrete formwork should be as light as possible. The material of the formwork should not be warped or deformed when exposed. It should build a solid foundation.
