Beamform Other Applications
Beamform is one of the most adaptable, versatile, easy to use, quick to install and environmentally friendly permanent formwork systems available today.

The benefits of using Beamform as the preferred method of groundbeam formwork are extremely varied and are shared by the Client, Contractor and Groundworker. These parties can be confident that they are using a product which has been successfully used for the past decade, is suitable and fit for purpose, reduces waste, reduces programme, reduces the need for skilled tradesmen and improves Health and Safety.

The pictures below demonstrate just how flexible and adaptable Beamform really is, whilst still maintaining concrete cover without any loss of quality in the finished foundation.

  • Radius beams are no more difficult than straight beams. If necessary units can be scored on their outside face to open up to follow the line of the reinforcement.
  • Stepped beam units are sufficiently strong and stiff so as to sit across connecting beams at step ends. They can be propped or tied into place using lacer bars allowing the stepped foundations to be monolithically poured.
  • As well as being stacked, units can be stood on end. 2 units 750mm deep giving a formwork panel size of 1m x 1.5m.
  • Acute or obtuse angles and triple pile caps are easy to install without the need for special corner pieces. Units can be used in un-reinforced trenches to save on wasted concrete.
  • Single site operatives are able, with minimum supervision, to install in excess of 250m of Beamform per day
