| Pecaform
(PVC formwork) |
| .. |
| Pecaform is used to construct
footings and ground beams of the building. It is made by laminating a layer
of polyethylene to each side of a high tensile steel wire mesh. This combination
creates a material that is both light and structurally strong, making it
very easy to handle. The formwork is cut-to size and bent to shape at factory
and arrives at site ready for installation. There is no need to strip formwork
after the concrete has cured. No waste is produced. A clean and neat site
can be obtained in the foundation stage with Pecaform. |
