these skills, you must learn basic concepts and terminologies. For the most
part, you'll get this information from the Information Sheets.
This module is prepared to help you achieve the required competency
in "Fabricate, Install and Remove Wooden Formworks."
It will be the source of information for you to acquire knowledge and
skills in this particular competency independently and at your own pace,
with minimum supervision or help from your learning facilitator.

Remember to:
 Work through all the information and complete the activities in each
section.
 Read information sheets and complete the self-check. These competency-

ASSEMBLING FORM PANELS AND STIFFENERS

Learning Objectives

After reading this information sheet, you must be able to:

 Know on how to perform the procedure in assembling form panels and

stiffeners.

A. Procedure in Assembling Form Panels and Stiffener using Plywood

and Lumber

1. Prepare all the materials and tools needed.

2. Position materials such as form sheeting and stiffener correctly.

The stiffener should be consistent with standard spacing for
studs or nailer with tolerance of 10 mm.O.C.
3. Assemble form panels. Check for squareness, levelness and
alignment to specified tolerance. Make sure that the smooth
side of the board is placed outside the frame.
4. Nail the form sheating to the stiffener using as many nails as
necessary to make the panel Istable stable in in itself. Fasten
first the two sides of the form sheating with the stiffeners
making sure it is flushed to its edges. Then fasten the ribs for
strength at 50 cm. apart. Drive 3° CWN to fasten it.
Note: Always check for squareness.
5. Clinch the nail tips. Tum over the panel and clinch the
penetrated nail tips.
6. Check form panels in compliance with job requirement.
7. Label the finished form accordingly as specified in the working
drawing.

B. Procedure in Assembling Form Panels using Forming Boards

1. Prepare the work. Make available the tools and materials. A
work table is to be manufactured.
2. Enter all sizes required into the working drawing. Derive the
sizes from the dimensions of the beam for which the formwork
is to be made. Prepare the size distribution of the cover straps
in particular.
3. Cut up the boards. The board width should not exceeded 140
mm. Do not place the rough edge of the board to the inside of
the formwork.
4. Cut the stiffening cover straps to length. Cover straps to have a
width of approx. 55 mm with 25 mm projection for comer joints!

 5. Put the cover straps on the arranged boards according to the
size distribution made. Use measuring rod, if necessary!
6. Nail the cover straps on the board-panel. It is provisional nailing
with short nails (40 mm). Use as many nails as necessary to
make the panel stable in itself.
7. Nail the cover straps on the boards from the opposite side. Tum
over the provisionally nailed board-panel and nail it with 70 mm
long nails. Two nails per board are to be diagonally arranged at
the cover strap joint!
8. Clinch the nail tips. Tum over the panel again and clinch the
penetrated nail tips!
