Abstract:
There is no single piece of plant equipement used by the contractor which lends itself more readily to the completion of good concrete work than the forms, yet we often find a greater neglect of them than of any other part of the plant. Reviewing projects wherein concrete has been used with the aid of forms, we find a great waste of time and materials, showing that not enough thought was given to the proper designing and handling of this part of the work.
