3) CALCULATION OF PRESSURE ON FORMWORK (TWO SIDE):
The following is an extract from CIRIA Report 108 for Calculating Concrete Pressure on
Formwork:
Considering height of 3.0 m and pouring rate of 0.5 m/h
Therefore the design pressure:
Pmax = D [C1 R + C2 K H - C1 R ] KN/m2
= 25 [1 0.5 + 0.45 x 1 3.0 - 1 0.5 ] KN/m2
= 34.71 KN/m2 , D h = 25 x 3.0= 75 KN/m2
Taking lesser value i.e. 34.71 KN/m2
at = from top.
And the pressure envelope is as follows
1.38m
5m
3.0 m
Pmax = 34.71 KN/m2
Based on the above pressure we check for the safety of Plywood & Panel.

A) CHECK FOR PLYWOOD:
Technical data of plywood
Modulus of Elasticity E = 4600 N/mm2
(Cross grain)
Allowable Shear = 4.83 N/mm2
Considering Plywood Strip 10cm
Width of plywood strip = 0.10m
Span of plywood
(B/w Secondary beam) =330 mm
Loading Intensity 0.10 KN/M run:
34.71 KN/M2 x 0.10m= 3.471 KN/M
Check through Bending Stress, Shear & Allowable Deflection
Max. Bending Moment BM = WL2 = 3.471*0.33*0.33 = 0.0377 KN-M
10 10
Max. Shear Force V = 0.60WL = 0.60*3.471*0.33 = 0.687 KN
Allowable Deflection = L/270 = 330/240 = 1.375 mm
For 0.10m strip * 18mm thick of Plywood
Section modulus Z =bd2/6 =100(18)2/6 = 5400mm3
Moment of Inertia Ixx =bd3/12 =100(18) 3/12 = 48600mm4
Moment Area about N/A axis Q =100*9*9/2 = 4050mm3
Width of plywood strip B = 100mm
Bending Stress Fbr = M = 0.0377*1000*1000 = 6.98 N/mm2
Z 5400

6.98 N/mm < 17.58 N/mm ------------------------------- (SAFE)
Shear stress Fvr = VQ = 0.687*1000*4050 = 0.5725 N/mm2
IxxB 48600*100
0.5725 N/mm < 4.83 N/mm2 --------------------------- (SAFE)

Max. Deflection max WL4 = 3.471 * (330)4 = 1.26 mm
145EI 145*4600*48,600
1.26 mm < 1.375 mm -------------------------------- (SAFE)
CHECK FOR PANEL:
Maximum Size of the Panel Is 0.9x3.0
Maximum Pressure Exerted by Panel will be the Concrete Pressure from
the Formwork.
Pmax = 34.71 Kn/m2

On the panel there will be concrete pressure acting horizontally.
Cross Section of the Panel = 900x3000x3 mm
Cross Section of the Secondary Beam = 100x50x3 mm
Modulus of Elasticity for the Panel = 210 Kn/mm2
Moment Of Inertia = 27380 mm4
Hydrostatic Pressure on Panel = 42.9 KN/M
