formworks
Temporary concrete shapers
Formworks are the temporary molds or structures into which concrete is poured and held while it sets.
Typically made of wood, metal, or plastic panels, formwork determines the shape of the finished concrete—walls, columns, foundations.
The crew assembled the formworks before the pour.
Once the concrete cures, the formwork is stripped away.
