What it is
Panels and beams Panalex. Key specifications: surface types Dark brown phenolic film, approx. 220 g/m² per side (Finnish standards), base material Finnish birch multi-ply plywood, density ~710 kg/m³, fibre direction length, outer layer 1200, 1250, 1500 mm.
Formwork is temporary moulding in timber, plywood or metal that shapes fresh concrete until it hardens, together with the related closing and propping accessories.
What it is for
Used for building formwork for concrete pours and for pouring concrete, from formwork to vibration.
How to use it
Erect the panels and boards on the setting-out lines, treat the faces with release agent and seal the joints well so that grout does not leak. Connect them with tensioners and clamps and prop them so they do not deform under the pressure of the pour. Strike only when the concrete has reached the required strength, then clean the panels and stack them under cover.
