What Is Concrete Form?

Types of Concrete Forms

1. Wooden Form

Uses of Wooden Concrete Form

1. The uses of wooden form is, when we need for laying concrete from any type of free-form design or any curves, then to make the form thin cross-section is employed.
2. The wooden form is the most conventional and basic type of concrete form, for casting concrete it is mainly used.

Advantage of Wooden Concrete Forms

1. The advantage of wooden concrete forms is, to make any shape of the residential building the wooden concrete forms are used.
2. Another advantage of wooden concrete forms is, the wooden form is the most conventional and basic type of concrete form, for casting concrete.

Disadvantage of Wooden Concrete Forms

1. The disadvantage of the wooden concrete form is, for the heavy concrete structure, the wooden concrete forms cannot be used.
2. A wooden concrete form is most costly.

Application of Wooden Concrete Forms

1. The wooden forms can be applied, when we need for laying concrete from any type of free-form design or any curves, then to make the form thin cross-section is employed.
2. It may be applying for any residential building construction and industrial construction.

2. Insulated Concrete Form

Uses of Insulated Concrete Forms

1. The insulated concrete forms use as insulating materials used for constructing building blocks.
2. To get the excessive energy efficiency, the concrete and forms are used like sandwiches.
3. The insulated concrete forms can be used as a building designer material.

Advantage of Insulated Concrete Forms

• It can be used for construct building blocks.
• By this we can obtain desired design on the residential building.

Disadvantage of Insulated Concrete Forms

1. The disadvantage of insulated concrete forms is, because of it is a hollow block, for this the strength of this concrete blocks is less from the other concrete forms.
2. For installation of this types of forms expert workers are needed.

Applications of Insulated Concrete Forms

1. The insulated concrete forms can be applied, to make a building block.
2. And it also can be applying, for the design of building walls and floors.

3.  Foam Concrete Form

Uses of Foam Concrete Form

• The foam concrete form can be used for; the specified finish is obtained and the concrete is poured upside down.
• Another uses of this is, by that foam concrete forms, we obtained creative look, create adverse spaces to the ultimate concrete cast.

Advantage of Foam Concrete Form

• The advantage of foam concrete form is, by this we can obtain a creative look, create adverse spaces to the ultimate concrete cast.
• By this we can decorate the building as our requirement.

Disadvantage of Foam Concrete Form

1. The uses of foam concrete form are costlier in the construction and needed more time for the construction. This is a common disadvantage of this.
2. For this expert’s workers are needed.

Applications of Foam Concrete Form

1. The applications of foam concrete form are, we obtained creative look, create adverse spaces to the ultimate concrete cast.
2. We can be applying for; the specified finish is obtained and the concrete is poured upside down.

4. Concrete Wall Forms

Uses of Concrete Wall Forms

1. The concrete wall forms techniques we used to make of large space walls, piers, and foundations.
2. When the wall forms are available in numerous shapes and sizes, in this technique to carry the reinforcement ties is used.

Advantages of Concrete Wall Forms

1. The common advantage of concrete wall forms is, it can be used to make of large space walls, piers, and foundations.
2. Another advantage of concrete wall form is; it can be easily usable.

Disadvantages of Concrete Wall Forms

• The disadvantage of concrete wall forms is, it is not used for small works like small residential building, etc.
• Another disadvantage of concrete wall forms are its increase the construction cost of the structure.

Applications of Concrete Wall Forms Is

1. We can apply the concrete wall forms, to make large space walls, piers, and foundations.
2. For decorating desired shape and size of the structure of a building, we can be applying the concrete wall forms.

5. Steel Concrete Forms

Uses of Steel-Concrete Forms

1. This form opts-in large-area walls, foundations, piers, etc.
2. This is generally made with engineering wood with steel framing.

Advantages of Steel-Concrete Forms

1. The main advantage of steel concrete form is its robust, sturdy, and longer lifespan.
2. Assembled and removing process is very fast compared to others.

Disadvantages of Steel-Concrete Forms

1. It is not economical because the cost is higher.
2. The weight of these are too much so it requires lifting equipment.
3. Corrosion will easily occur in this.
4. Shape and size are limited in this.

Application of Steel-Concrete Forms

• This is generally made with engineering wood with steel framing.
• This form opts in large-area walls, foundations, piers, etc.

Free Form Concrete

• Off-form concrete is a construction material that's created by pumping concrete through a nozzle to form it into a predetermined shape
• Sprayed concrete is an ideal material for constructing freeform structures because it can form curved shapes
• Wood has been the concrete contractor's formwork of choice for years because it's relatively inexpensive, lightweight, and easy to understand and replace
• Plastic concrete forms can be used to create slants or curves, and can work around landscaping obstructions
