- Culvert box construction – drainage and irrigation crossings
- Pier and abutment formwork – bridge substructure
What thickness of shuttering plate is needed for bridge construction?
For bridge deck pours with concrete depths of 200mm to 300mm, 8mm to 10mm thick shuttering plates are typically used. For longer spans, 12mm plates with stiffeners are recommended.
