Sheathing are vertical timber planks provided all along the – perimeter of the column. Sheathing is generally nailed to yokes Side yokes and end yokes The side yokes and end yokes consist of two – numbers and are suitably spaced along the length of the form work. Side yokes are interconnected together through two long bolts. Wedges Wedges are used to tighten various elements of the form work. – Checking column formworks Vertical alignment and alignment between faces Any possible to leakage Size of column Proper supporting Smoothness of surface of formwork Cover blocks Cover blocks are used to maintain a uniform cover thickness. Main thing is the durability of concrete depends on cover thickness. Also, cover helps to Prevent those corrosive agents reaching the reinforcement. Protect the reinforcement in terms of time from strength loss during fire.
