Guide to Formwork for Concrete
Also Known As:
The ACI 347R-14 standard has objectives that prioritize safety, quality, and economy in formwork construction. The standard provides guidance on the specification documents that engineers and architects should provide to contractors. The guide then advises formwork engineers and contractors on the best practices to meet these specifications safely and economically.
The standard is divided into chapters that cover various aspects of formwork, including design, construction, and materials. It also has a separate chapter dedicated to considerations specific to architectural concrete. In addition, there are sections dedicated to formwork for bridges, shells, mass concrete, and underground work.
The standard concludes with a chapter on formwork for special methods of construction, which includes slipforming, preplaced-aggregate concrete, tremie concrete, precast concrete, and prestressed concrete.
