Core Features with Data Support

Steel formwork is renowned for its excellent mechanical properties. Made of Q235 or Q355 steel, its component strength reaches 235-355 MPa, with a composite rigidity of over 10000 N/mm, enabling it to stably bear concrete pressure up to 50 kN/m² without deformation during casting.

With high manufacturing precision, its panel flatness error is controlled within ±0.5 mm per meter, and the joint gap is less than 0.3 mm, effectively preventing slurry leakage and ensuring a smooth concrete surface after formwork removal, reducing subsequent finishing work by 30%.

It has excellent integrity and earthquake resistance, capable of withstanding seismic intensity up to 8 degrees, providing reliable support for building structures. Additionally, its service life can reach 15-20 years with proper maintenance, and it can be reused 50-80 times, reducing long-term construction costs by 40% compared to wooden formwork.

Its main drawbacks include a weight of 40-60 kg/m², requiring hoisting machinery for movement and installation, and an initial purchase cost that is approximately 2-3 times higher than that of traditional wooden formwork.
