Formwork Beams
19 novembra, 2024

Formwork beams are a crucial component of concrete forming systems, providing the structural support needed to handle the loads of fresh concrete during pouring and curing. These beams are engineered for strength, durability, and flexibility, allowing them to adapt to various formwork designs and configurations.

Available in materials like wood, aluminum, or composite, formwork beams are lightweight yet robust, making them easy to handle while maintaining high load-bearing capacity. Their modular design ensures compatibility with other formwork components, enhancing efficiency and precision on the job site. Ideal for walls, slabs, and custom structures, formwork beams are a cornerstone of safe and effective concrete construction.

Safe Load Table

Symbols used in table are as follows:

Fb = Allowable unit stress in extreme fiber in bending, psi.

W = Total uniformly distributed load, pounds

w = Load per linear foot of beam, pounds

Fv = Horizontal shear stress, psi, induced by load W

E = Modulus of elasticity, 1000 psi induced by load W for l/360 limit
