Fabric formwork
9
Technology Description
Fabric formwork allows the design of concrete elements in a flexible way, using a soft formwork than can be shaped according to an optimised layout. It can be used for walls, columns, and elevated slab soffits (an exterior or interior architectural feature, generally the horizontal, aloft underside of any construction element).
Relevance for Net Zero
Fabric formwork saves on average 35% of concrete compared to conventional rigid wood or steel panel formwork, but is applied in locations where site logistics might be prohibitive or experienced labour less locally available.
