The following tools are needed for installation:
Pliers for cutting the reinforcement; knife for cutting
plastic, reinforcement fastening hooks; binding wire for
connecting the forms, as well as measuring tape and
amarking pencil.
The installation will take a fiew of hours. For calculating
the total length of the formwork, add 10 to 15% for
connections and overlapping.
The footing mold is designed for a 20-cm layer of
concrete. In case of thicker layer, the upper width of
the molds will expand up to 3 cm. This will create a
need for 0.5 m³ more concrete per 100m of foundation.
Tips for making common connections are shown in
figures aside. Steps, inclines, curves, extensions (for
chimney foundation etc).
