Modern Practice in Formwork for Civil Engineering Construction Works

Formwork and falsework are temporary structures that are built to support parts or the whole of a permanent structure until it is self-supporting. Individual components of formwork and falsework are assembled and form the temporary structure. In other words, Formwork means the surface, support, and framing used to define the shape of the concrete until it is self-supporting.
