Stremaform® formwork element
The fabrication and construction of joints/ stop-ends in reinforced concrete structures are often very difficult to construct on-site. The need for continuous reinforcement hinders access for formwork erection and for watertight structures the need for a metal, expanding or rubber bar waterstops is an added complication. A stop end constructed using traditional timber or steel formwork is often difficult to fix. Stremaform® can be used for all sizes of joint. The surface produced by Stremaform® is equivalent to or better than one produced by conventional scabbling. The subsequent concrete pour binds to the rough face produced to provide a shear key. Independent testing confirms the very high shear transfer loads achieved.
Stremaform® formwork elements manufactured by FRANK are the ideal solution to these problems. Stremaform® – an expanded metal mesh embedded in reinforcing steel on both sides - is prefabricated in our factory and supplied to the construction site ready for installation. The ideal lost formwork for producing quality joints in reinforced concrete.
The main application of Stremaform® is for concrete construction joints and for expansion joints.
Approval by all relevant testing bodies and technical notification given for Deutsche Bahn - for Stremaform® formwork elements in reinforced concrete construction joints.
