Formwork system
Various implementations described herein are directed to a formwork system. In one implementation, the formwork system includes aluminum extrusions and aluminum castings. The aluminum castings and the aluminum extrusions can be assembled by being pressed and riveted together.
1. A formwork system, comprising:
a first formwork panel, comprising:
an inner rail configured to be coupled to a first aluminum tie extrusion and a second aluminum tie extrusion and further configured to receive:
a portion of the first aluminum tie extrusion into a first side of the inner rail; and
a portion of the second aluminum tie extrusion into a second side of the inner rail;
a first aluminum side rail; and
a second aluminum side rail;
wherein the first aluminum tie extrusion is coupled to the first aluminum side rail and the second aluminum tie extrusion is coupled to the second aluminum side rail;
wherein the first formwork panel is configured to be coupled to other formwork panels of the formwork system using a standard clamp.
2. The formwork system of claim 1 , wherein the inner rail, the first aluminum tie extrusion, the second aluminum tie extrusion, the first aluminum side rail and the second aluminum side rail are made of structural grade aluminum.
3. The formwork system of claim 1 , wherein the first formwork panel includes a synthetic form face.
4. The formwork system of claim 1 ,
wherein the first formwork panel is configured to be coupled to
a corner extrusion of the formwork system via the standard clamp.
5. The formwork system of claim 4 , wherein the corner extrusion is made of structural grade aluminum.
6. The formwork system of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the inner rail, the first aluminum side rail and the second aluminum side rail includes a plurality of flanges.
7. The formwork system of claim 1 , wherein the first formwork panel further comprises a plurality of corner castings to couple a top portion and a bottom portion of the first formwork panel to the first aluminum side rail and the second aluminum side rail.
