I have often wondered the opposite. But have never used snap ties. Some of the jobs we do now are far to big to use snap ties or even coil ties. But as you know, with this kind of work often it is best to just stick to what you know as if it goes wrong it’s not good!

@bmformworkconcreteconstruc9783
@bmformworkconcreteconstruc9783 Ай бұрын
It’s easier faster and more accurate nailing ply cleats to the ply string. Because the wall is hollow bricks you have to drill and fix every individual riser. You do get very quick at this method but my string method is far quicker. I did it for about 10years for each method and string is much better.

Youre a true professional. I made the mistake of pouring too fast (more tham 2 foot lifts, no inner ties) and some of the form work let go. Also the pressure caused my walls to be out of plumb. Were talking about over 400 feet of a property lined U-shaped planter. Couldnt vibe the 2nd top half of it because i knew the forms wouldve exploded so there are places that need patching. Felt sick to my stomach but it is what it is. Shouldve stuck to my original plans to pour first half of the wall first with the footing then the other half of the wall.
@bmformworkconcreteconstruc9783
@bmformworkconcreteconstruc9783 2 ай бұрын
Sounds like you should have used ties! A quick concrete pressure calculation from google or chat gpt will tell you have much pressure to allow for. Then you just have to make your forms strong enough to hold that much weight. Never design around pouring slow. Build it to suit maximum concrete pressure as sometimes the concrete doesn’t go off or is a high slump or gets poured fast or plasticiser is added which all keep the concrete at maximum pressure. Build forms to suit that.

It is oil. To repel the water in the concrete. If you repel the water from the surface you will get more cement against the forms which creates a stronger, smoother finish with less air bubbles.

Very nice work. I appreciate your attention to detail and well thought out processes. Do you prefer to nail the packet and cleat from the side to the riser as in the video? Why not face nail the riser to the cleat? Seems like it would make for a cleaner face to not have the end of plys on the concrete. But it would offset the cleat from your layout, so perhaps not as convenient in that case. Curious of your thoughts. Thanks for sharing
