The term 'formwork' referst to a temporary mould into which concrete is poured and formed so that it can set to the required shape. Traditional formwork is fabricated using timber shuttering, but it can also be constructed from steel, glass fibre reinforced plastics, plywood and other materials. Shuttering is most common type of formwork, constructed on site using timber and plywood. A special grade of plywood is necessary for shuttering, as it must be water-resistant. Shuttering is relatively easy to produce, although it can be time consuming for large structures or complex shapes. This type of temporary formwork is used when the labour costs are lower than the cost of producing re-usable formwork from materials such as steel or plastic.
