 Product Description 

BOFU reusable formwork is an easy and intuitive system of PC-ABS formworks for building concrete walls, basements, columns. Compared with the traditional timber or steel systems, BOFU reusable formwork is handier, more cost effective and faster to set up, save time and labor charge. Modular formwork has panels of various sizes, fastened together by means of fast-lock nylon handles. Thanks to the several possible panel combinations, and special inner and outer corner elements, the possible wall thickness goes from 10 to 40 cm.

Concept

 Product Characteristics 

Product Introduction 

Handier

The biggest panel of BOFU reusable formwork is 120x60cm, weight only 10.5kg, which can be lift and set up by only one person easily, need no
crane on the site.

easy set up

 Different size of BOFU reusable formwork panels can be firmly locked by simply turn the special handles to 90 degree. The panels have rib on the back, which makes the system need not traditional wood blocks and nails.

The panels have holes to fit tie rod, guarantee the strength of the whole system.  

Strength 

The material of BOFU reusable formwork is PC-ABS mixied with special glass fibres which enable panels to hold high pressures. The handles are made by high strength Nilon, each panel
locked by at least 4 handls, which makes the whole system strong enough to pour 40cm walls.

enviroment friendly

The BOFU reusable formwork system need not cut and nail due to the variety size, and nearly need no wood, the material can be recycled after broken, will not pollute the enviroment. In propely use, the formwork system can be reused about 100 times.

Consequent

Concrete does not stick to plastic, thus the panels need no oil before using, and can be cleaned simply by water. The surface of the wall which built by BOFU reusable formwork is smooth, can be left without rework.

Walls and corners

Using BOFU reusable formwork , it is possible to pour up to 40cm thick and 3 meters highstraight walls one time. Combining with special corners and compensation panels, right angle walls, three way T-walls and four way cross walls can be fomed easily. The low weight and modularity of  reusable formwork makes it ideal for fence walls as it is possible to move large gangforms by hand.

Basins and elevator shafts

The low weight of BOFU reusable formwork simplifies the pouring of tanks, basins and swimming pools in areas with limited or no access to heavy equipment.  reusable formwork also ideal for elevator shafts as it can use without aid of crane, can make an easy, fast and precise job by hand.

Doors and windows

To make doors and windows by BOFU reusable formwork is simple, by inserting inside the formwork a wooden frame corresponding to the size of the opening needed, and then pour the walls with doors and windows.

 Adjustable Column panel

The BOFU reusable formwork column panels are interconnected using the standard nylon locking handles. Each panel will require 9 handles. The forming face has 6 parallel rows of fixing holes to allow the orthogonal connection of the panels in a “star” shape. The rows are placed at a distance of 100/50mm the one from the other, allowing the forming of square and/or rectangular columns with side of 150 to 600mm.

 Set up Showing 

BOFU  reusable formwork system for walls with precise lengths or enclosed 4 within other walls. A single filler requires 2 x wood plates (1 each side), 4 x stays (each comprising a spacer, a tie rod and two win nuts), 8 x reinforcement bar (2 for each wood plate) .

1. assemble the formwork as described earlier leaving an opening in the panels where the wood plate has to be mounted. The space remaining will be panelled off by the wood plates (do not use the wood plate along or next to corners, but in a flat area, usually about halfway along the wall)

2. to keep the plates in place and prevent them from falling, fit the spacers and the tie rods in the plates’ holes

3. mount the reinforcement bars on the tie rods, one for each stay (i.e. 4 each side for a 3.00m high formwork)

4. lock the reinforcement bar in place by fastening tight the win nuts, making sure the reinforcement bar is kept horizontal. At this stage the wood plates are blocked to the system
