Description
Since the beginning of concrete construction, the decision to remove formwork and allow the structure to support itself has been a matter for judgement between the needs for speed of construction and for avoidance of collapse or damage. This publication describes the criteria governing the striking of formwork. It reviews methods for predicting striking times using computer programs and describes the applications of these systems. Users are also guided on techniques for reducing striking times where these are considered excessive.
