    Form Design Spreadsheets
     
    William C. Epstein, professor of construction management at California Polytechnic State University, has developed interactive spreadsheets for design of formwork components following procedures outlined in Chapter 6 of ACI SP-4, “Formwork for Concrete,” 7th edition. One spreadsheet deals with forms for elevated slabs, and the other with wall forms. These spreadsheets were created as a teaching and learning tool, and are in no way intended to supplant the qualified engineer or designer to whom formwork planning should be entrusted.

    The spreadsheets are in Microsoft Excel format. You will need that program to download the files.
