Abstract:
Part I of this report discusses present practice, form-work problems, and the need for improved formwork practice to promote safety, uniformity, and economy in this important phase of concrete construction) Part 2 is a general discussion of responsibility of the engineer or architect and what information (other than that covered by Part 3) should be provided in his plans and specifica- tions; and Part 3 consists of suggested requirements for formwork practice. In Part 3 Chapters 1, 2, and 3 cover general provisions, minimum design requirements, loads and allowable unit stresses, construction requirements, and form materials applicable to formwork for the great majority of projects involving concrete) Chapters 4 and 5 deal with special concrete structures and special methods of construction.
