For structures where the concrete will be visible after completion, off-form finish requirements must be considered from the outset. To achieve a high-quality finish, considerable attention needs to be given to the concrete mix, formwork materials, detailing and sealing, as well as industry best practice. Failures relating to off-form concrete finishes are often connected to the quality and grade of the formply product, the type of finish specified and how the formwork product was used.
Off-form Concrete: Specifying plywood formwork for high-quality decorative finishes helps industry professionals avoid common mistakes with off-form concrete finishes by examining the following key topics: specifying an appropriate off-form finish under Australian standards (AS 3610 ““Formwork for concrete”); how formwork materials impact the concrete surface finish; and the relevant considerations when selecting formply products. We also consider how the effects of weather may influence your choice of formply product. Outdoor Plywood
