Metal Formwork for Creating Concrete Structures of Various Purposes

Metal formwork is a modern construction material used for building concrete structures of any complexity. It is a system of steel panels, frames, and fasteners that allow forming precise shapes for concrete pouring. The use of metal formwork significantly speeds up the construction process, improves the quality of concrete structures, and reduces labor costs.

You can buy high-quality metal formwork in the RМС “GROUP” construction store in Yerevan, where a wide range of products for private and commercial construction projects is presented.

Types of Metal Formwork by Application

These systems play a key role in creating concrete structures of various purposes. The choice of a specific formwork type depends on the scale of work and the requirements specified in the project documentation. The RМС “GROUP” store in Yerevan offers several types of metal formwork, divided according to their application:

• Panel formwork. Consists of steel panels connected to each other. Used for building walls, columns, partitions, and foundation blocks.
• Column formwork. Designed for forming columns or pillars of different diameters. Allows quick adjustment of the size and configuration of columns.
• Frame (panel) formwork. A lightweight and convenient system that ensures clean and precise concrete lines, suitable for multiple uses.
• Modular formwork. A system similar to a construction set, allowing the assembly of structures of any shape, including curved elements, arches, and complex architectural forms.
• Panel formwork with a metal frame. Used for large projects or multi-storey construction. Distinguished by increased strength and stability.

You can purchase construction materials at affordable prices without leaving your home. On the website, you can order the production of metal structures according to drawings with delivery to your site. Send your request to [email protected] or call +374 43 40 80 80.

Design Features

Metal formwork is known for its strength, durability, and reliability, making it indispensable in modern construction.
Steel panels withstand high concrete pressure and do not deform during pouring. This ensures smooth and accurate walls, columns, and slabs. Metal is resistant to moisture, mechanical damage, and repeated use. Formwork can be used for many years, making it an economically beneficial solution.

Metal formwork systems are suitable for residential and commercial construction, industrial facilities, bridges, foundations, and stair structures. Modern systems are equipped with standard fastening elements, allowing quick and safe assembly without additional costs. They ensure precise geometry, reducing concrete consumption and waste.

Installation Stages

Installation begins at the corner of the future building. Two panels are installed perpendicular to each other and secured with braces (support elements that hold metal sheets in a vertical and fixed position). Then, subsequent panels are installed one by one starting from the corner units. It is crucial to position each panel correctly and securely fasten it. Typically, panels are connected using screw fasteners.

After installing each new part of the formwork, additional braces are mounted. They can be placed in the middle of the panel or at the junction of two adjacent panels. The interval of supports is calculated in the project documentation.

You can buy metal formwork for any construction project at RМС “GROUP” in Yerevan. Reliable structures, precise dimensions, and high quality will ensure the durability of your building, speed up the construction process, and make it safe and cost-effective.
