Formwork Design

This document contains calculations to determine the concrete pressure acting on a wall formwork and design the formwork based on that pressure. It first calculates the concrete pressure at different heights of the wall based on parameters like concrete mix design, temperature, and pour rate. The maximum pressure of 75.93 kPa is then used to design the formwork components like plywood, walings, and soldiers based on allowable deflection, bending moment, and shear force criteria. The recommended spacing for each component is calculated and the design satisfies the spacing criteria check.
