Permanent Formwork Solution

What is Stremaform®?

Stremaform® is a prefabricated stay-in-place formwork system designed for forming joints between separate concrete pours. Once positioned within the reinforcement, the formwork remains permanently within the completed concrete structure.

Unlike conventional temporary formwork, Stremaform® does not need to be stripped after concreting. This can simplify construction sequencing, reduce on-site labour and minimise the additional materials and handling associated with traditional joint formwork.

Applications

Stremaform® Joint Solutions

01

Construction & Working Joints

Stremaform® provides an efficient solution for forming defined construction and working joints between separate concrete pours while accommodating reinforcement where required.

02

Expansion Joints

Prefabricated Stremaform® expansion joint elements can separate concrete components where movement is required and can accommodate project-specific joint configurations.

03

Controlled Crack Joints

Stremaform® can also form predetermined controlled crack joints in reinforced concrete construction and can be integrated with suitable sealing solutions where required.

Built for Concrete Construction

Stremaform® for Slabs, Walls and Foundations

Concrete Slabs

Ideal for dividing large slab areas into controlled concreting sections while accommodating reinforcement and required joint arrangements.

Concrete Walls

Used within reinforced concrete walls to create working, construction or expansion joints without conventional joint formwork removal.

Foundations

Particularly useful in heavily reinforced foundations where conventional formwork installation and stripping can be difficult or time-consuming.

Infrastructure

Suitable for complex civil and infrastructure projects requiring efficient concrete sequencing and reliable joint formation.

Key Advantages

Benefits of Stremaform® Stay-in-Place Formwork

No Formwork Stripping

Stremaform® remains permanently within the concrete structure, eliminating the need to remove conventional joint formwork.

Faster Installation

Prefabricated elements reduce the amount of on-site fabrication and adjustment required during construction.

Reduced Labour

Less fabrication, stripping and disposal can reduce labour requirements associated with concrete joint formwork.

Custom Solutions

Stremaform® can accommodate different structural dimensions, joint configurations and complex project-specific requirements.

Faster Construction

Stremaform® vs Conventional Formwork

Conventional Joint Formwork

  • Fabricated and adjusted on site
  • Requires supporting and fixing
  • Must be stripped after concreting
  • Additional labour and handling
  • More temporary material usage

Stremaform®

  • Prefabricated stay-in-place system
  • Installed directly within reinforcement
  • No stripping required
  • Reduced on-site fabrication
  • Consistent joint formation

Stremaform® Technical Support and Project Solutions

Not every concrete joint has the same requirements. Joint type, concrete dimensions, reinforcement, waterproofing, structural loading and construction sequence can all influence the appropriate Stremaform® solution.

Wright Stone Construction Systems works with contractors, engineers and project teams to identify suitable Stremaform® solutions for project-specific construction requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions About Stremaform®

What is Stremaform®?
+
Stremaform® is a prefabricated stay-in-place formwork system used to form construction, working, expansion and controlled crack joints in reinforced concrete structures. Once installed, the formwork remains permanently within the concrete.

What is stay-in-place formwork?
+
Stay-in-place formwork is installed before concreting and remains permanently within the completed concrete structure rather than being stripped after the concrete pour. This can reduce labour, construction time and temporary formwork materials.

What is Stremaform® used for?
+
Stremaform® is used to create joints in reinforced concrete slabs, walls, foundations and other structural elements. Applications include construction joints, working joints, expansion joints and controlled crack joints.

Where is Stremaform® used in construction projects?
+
Stremaform® can be used in concrete slabs, walls, foundations, basements and large structural concrete elements, as well as civil and infrastructure projects where efficient and reliable joint formation is required.

Can Stremaform® be used for concrete slabs?
+
Yes. Stremaform® can be used as stay-in-place formwork for construction, working and expansion joints within reinforced concrete slabs.

Can Stremaform® be used for concrete walls?
+
Yes. Stremaform® elements can be incorporated into reinforced concrete walls to create defined construction, working or expansion joints between separate concrete pours.

Does Stremaform® need to be removed after concreting?
+
No. Stremaform® is stay-in-place formwork and is designed to remain permanently within the concrete structure, eliminating the need to strip conventional joint formwork after the concrete pour.

How does Stremaform® improve construction efficiency?
+
Stremaform® reduces the need for on-site formwork fabrication and eliminates stripping of temporary joint formwork. This can simplify construction sequencing, reduce labour requirements and improve productivity on concrete projects.

Can Stremaform® incorporate waterstops?
+
Yes. Stremaform® joint solutions can be configured with appropriate waterstop systems for concrete structures requiring sealed or watertight joints.

Can Stremaform® be customised for specific projects?
+
Yes. Stremaform® can be produced in project-specific configurations to accommodate different structural dimensions, joint arrangements and complex component geometries.

What is the difference between a Stremaform® working joint and expansion joint?
+
Working or construction joints divide concrete construction into separate concreting sections while maintaining the required structural relationship between pours. Expansion joints separate concrete components so movement can occur between them. Stremaform® solutions are available for both applications.

Where can I buy Stremaform® in Australia?
+
