FORMWORKS For COLUMNS

This document provides calculations to determine the materials needed for formwork on a multi-level construction project. It calculates the surface area of forms needed at each level, from the footing to the fourth floor. Based on these areas, it then determines the number of pieces of plywood and bracing strips required. It also calculates the weights of nails needed for the job. In total, the formwork area is 113.14 square meters, requiring around 40 sheets of plywood and 308 pieces of bracing. An estimated 16 kilograms of 4D nails and 7 kilograms of 11⁄2" nails will also be needed.
