Formwork

Repair, Replacement & Construction Methods
Formwork A temporary framework of wooden boards or metal rails set up along the perimeter of a work area to contain and shape wet concrete.

Formwork acts as the structural mold for your new sidewalk. It must be precisely leveled and staked to ensure the finished concrete has the correct thickness and pitches perfectly toward the curb. NYC DOT specifications dictate how long the formwork must remain in place to support the weight of the wet, curing concrete without bowing or collapsing.
