Wall formwork MidiFORM

MidiFORM wall formwork is a robust and versatile frame formwork system for medium and large-scale projects. It is available in a range of sizes, allowing it to be tailored to the specific project.

 

What are the characteristics of MidiFORM medium and large-scale formwork?

The core component of the MidiFORM system is closed-section, hot-dip galvanised profiles. The panels are made from high-quality 15mm thick plywood (birch plywood coated with a phenolic film weighing 220g/cm²). The height of the outer profile is 121mm and its thickness is 1.75mm. The width of the cross-member in the closed profile depends on the width and height of the panels and is either 25mm or 40mm.

MidiFORM frame formwork can be positioned vertically or horizontally. The system’s versatility, thanks to the 5cm increments in panel width, allows it to be adapted to virtually any height and width of a structure. The steel frames feature enlarged pockets for tie rods with conically profiled holes, which facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the tie rods whilst protecting the plywood from premature damage. The reinforced design results in less formwork deflection under heavy loads and a reduced need for accessories, which in turn enables faster work. In addition, the formwork panels can be joined together using standard (screw-type) connectors or wedge connectors, which join, align, stiffen and compensate for panel elements using wooden inserts.

Application of the MidiFORM wall formwork

The MidiFORM system is designed for the construction of:

  • foundation strips,
  • load-bearing walls,
  • columns with rectangular or square cross-sections,
  • joists, beams and girders,
  • lift shafts,
  • arched walls,
  • abutments,
  • and other engineering structures.
