If you want to build a house, you needto make formwork for foundation. Without the creation of formwork it is impossible to conduct all further construction activities. This form was invented at the same time as concrete. Initially, a liquid building material needs a form in order to be able to use it.
How to make a foundation for a foundation - removable and non-removable
A conventional removable form is made beforework with their own hands, and when the foundation is frozen, understands. Very often it is built right where it is built. But if you do everything professionally, then the formwork is ordered from specialists or bought at enterprises that are engaged in creating shields for this kind of work. In the first case, you need plywood or boards, fasteners and two or three days of work. This option is cheaper and easier. But there is a risk of breaking the foundation, since the solidified concrete can swell, there will be no smooth surface, and the wall can not be built on it. And if the boards on the inner side of the formwork were uneven, then the foundation will need additional thorough finishing, and this is an extra expense of materials, facilities and time.
In the second case, the shield form is made onenterprise. Good qualities in this version: fast assembly, flawlessly flat surfaces, especially the interior of the formwork, and a reliable factory fixing. What is not very pleasant is the price of production boards. If the house is built only for yourself, it is very unprofitable. It is much better to take such a form somewhere in rent than to buy one.
