FAQ
- What is the most critical hold point for formwork?
- Pre-pour formwork inspection is the most critical hold point. This confirms that dimensions, levels, bracing, and shoring capacity all match the engineer's design before concrete is placed. Once concrete is poured, formwork defects result in either costly remediation or structural non-compliance. This inspection must be signed off by a competent person before the pour can proceed.
- When can formwork be stripped?
- Stripping schedules depend on the structural element, concrete strength gain, and ambient temperature. AS 3600 provides minimum stripping times, but the project specification may impose longer periods. The ITP should include a hold point or witness point at stripping to verify that the minimum curing period has been met and the concrete has reached the required strength (often verified by test cylinders).
- Does the formwork ITP need to cover falsework separately?
- Falsework (temporary support structures for elevated formwork) should be included in the formwork ITP as a specific section with its own hold points. Falsework has additional requirements for foundation bearing capacity, bracing, and load path verification that aren't covered by standard ground-level formwork inspection.
