Name of The Project Structure Location Detail Date SR No Description Checked Found O.K. Remark

The document discusses formwork materials and loading considerations for formwork design. It lists common formwork materials like timber, plywood, steel plates and tubes. It describes vertical loads like dead load from concrete and forms, and live loads from stored materials and workers. It also mentions lateral loads from fresh concrete pressure. The document provides a formwork inspection report template to check location, dimensions, bracing, joints and other formwork criteria.
