Prestressed concrete is suitable for different types of structural systems which range from pre-tensioned and post-tensioned structures, both cast-in-place and precast, and other pre-stressed components along with normally reinforced concrete. To increase ROI, the forms and stressing facilities should be applied continually.

Precast concrete is one type of construction under which casting is done in a recyclable mould or “form” and cured in a controlled surrounding as well as transmitted to the construction site and hoisted into place. It is primarily applied in the erection of buildings with repetitive design and components, like schools and apartments.

Note the different thickness: A standard plywood thickness on site is 18mm. this is usually sufficient for most pours. However, if the formwork is curved, a thinner plywood is used to facilitate bending.

When concrete is fresh and in its liquid state it must be restrained within a mould in order for it to set in its required shape. A smooth outer surface provides the main support for the concrete as it sets. Formwork is the term used to describe this mould. For most in-situ pours, the formwork is made of wood.
