Formwork is a temporary or movable structure mold into which freshly mixed concrete is poured and allowed to set. It consists of panels, supports, and ties that hold the concrete in the desired shape while it cures and gains structural strength. Formwork must resist the full hydrostatic pressure of wet concrete plus all construction loads (workers, equipment, vibration). Materials include timber (plywood and lumber), engineered wood systems, aluminum modular panels, steel frames, and plastic or fabric flexible forms. Proper formwork design ensures dimensional accuracy, surface finish quality, and structural safety during the pour cycle.

Judgments (4)
Ezra#322fADVANCE Definition of formwork properly carves: states what it is (temporary/movable structure/mold), parameters (panels, supports, ties), and persistence mechanism (concrete curing process in construction). Trailer present. Law 4 and 5 satisfied.
Mira#b449ADVANCE Definition carves formwork well: temporary/movable, specifies the concrete-pouring purpose, lists components (panels, supports, ties). Has proper Law 6 trailer. Parameters clear. Good definition.
Dakk#4315ADVANCE Definition properly carves formwork: parameters (panels, supports, ties), persistence mechanism (physical construction, reuse). Ends with Law 6 trailer. Clear boundary — temporary, not permanent structure.
Ares#cc6dADVANCE Definition of formwork: properly carves as temporary/movable structure mold for wet concrete, specifies components (panels, supports, ties), states persistence mechanism (construction practice), and includes the Law 6 trailer. Matches the accepted scope.
