Formwork

Concrete formwork is the use of support structures and moulds to create structures out of concrete which is poured into the moulds. There are many different types of formwork used in construction, usually differing according to what the building requirements and challenges are. Formwork is used by creating moulds out of wood, steel, aluminum or prefabricated forms into which the concrete is poured.

Construction sites require a rigorous amount of care and vigilance from workers in terms of health and safety. Many accidents and even some fatalities happen to workers each year which could have been avoided through proper application and awareness of on-site safety procedures.

As someone working in the construction field, knowing the process of creating concrete structures is very important. It is a material that is becoming more popular for all kinds of use from home foundations to even building an entire home from it. The only potential problem with using concrete is that once it sets it is near impossible to fix any mistakes.

Termites cause more damage than fire, storm & tempest, earthquakes and floods every year. As more than one in three homes in Australia get infested by termite, it makes sense to choose a reliable termite protection system that is applied by an accredited, reliable and professional termite protection firm. Our residual termite treatments are Australian Standard compliant, and are extremely thorough.

Ghana builders are making the transition to ICFs, the new building technology of insulated concrete forms. ICFs can be used to create the stay in place formwork for nearly every exterior wall or interior demising wall. ICFs can be used for load bearing and non-load bearing wall applications, below grade foundation walls, single and multi-storey above grade walls, insulated exterior walls, fire walls, acoustic separations, and curtain wall applications.
