Frequently Asked Question

  • Yes. Dimensions and interfaces follow mainstream aluminum formwork standards, making them compatible with most beam–slab aluminum formwork systems using standard prop heads and walers.

  • Under normal site conditions and proper handling, steel props and accessories are designed for 300+ reuse cycles. Actual lifespan depends on load discipline, surface protection, and maintenance.

  • Diagonal bracing is required for tall props, cantilever slabs, balcony edges, wall support, or any condition with lateral instability risk. For low-height slab support, bracing depends on local safety codes and layout design.

  •  Height is adjusted via threaded collar or pin-lock mechanism, allowing fine adjustment within millimeter-level tolerance to meet slab elevation requirements before pouring.

  • For standard adjustable steel props used in aluminum formwork, the safe working load typically ranges from 20–30 kN per prop, depending on extension height and installation condition. Capacity decreases as height increases. Final load must follow project-specific shoring design.

  • All products are inspected before shipment. Any confirmed quality issues are handled through replacement or corrective action based on project conditions.

  •  Yes. The accessories follow mainstream industry standards and are compatible with most flat-tie aluminum formwork systems.

  • Standard accessories usually require 7–15 days depending on order quantity and production schedule.

  • Common terms include T/T with deposit and balance before shipment. Other terms can be discussed case by case.

  • Yes. Standard samples can be provided for evaluation, subject to availability.

  • Yes. The system is fully customizable based on project drawings, floor heights, wall layouts, and structural requirements. Modular panel design and standardized connection interfaces allow flexible configuration and seamless integration with various construction sequences and reinforcement layouts.

  • With proper installation, handling, and maintenance, aluminum formwork typically achieves 200–300 reuse cycles. Consistent structural performance across cycles results in a low average cost per pour compared to traditional formwork systems.

  • Panel flatness and system verticality are controlled within ±5 mm. Precision extrusion, CNC machining, and controlled welding processes ensure tight tolerances, resulting in smooth concrete finishes suitable for plaster-free construction.

  • The system is designed to withstand high lateral concrete pressure, with load capacity determined by panel thickness, frame height, and support spacing. When installed according to design specifications, the system provides reliable structural rigidity and controlled deflection during concrete pouring.

  • Our aluminum formwork is manufactured primarily from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy, offering an optimal balance of strength, stiffness, corrosion resistance, and weldability. The material properties ensure stable load-bearing performance under fresh concrete pressure and repeated reuse cycles.

  • Wall thickness accuracy depends on tie-rod tightening consistency, waler stiffness, and workmanship. Proper torque control typically limits wall thickness deviation to ≤3 mm, which meets structural tolerances for most residential and commercial projects.

  • Tie-rod systems provide higher load capacity and wider applicability, especially for thick walls and high concrete pressure. Flat-tie systems offer faster dismantling and no wall penetration but lower load tolerance. Tie-rod systems are preferred for high-rise, heavy concrete, and structural walls.

  • After stripping, tie rods are removed while plastic or conical sleeves remain, forming a controlled penetration hole. These holes are sealed using non-shrink mortar or waterproof plugs to meet façade and basement waterproofing requirements.

  • Tie-rod spacing is determined by wall thickness, pour height, and concrete slump. In residential high-rise projects, spacing is commonly 400–600 mm horizontally and vertically, engineered to control deflection while maintaining surface flatness.

  • The system resists fresh concrete lateral pressure through tie rods working in direct tension, transferring loads to double steel walers. This creates a predictable force path and allows higher concrete pour rates compared with flat-tie systems, making it suitable for high-rise and thick wall applications.
