Seamless Connections: The Internal Corner in Aluminum Formwork Systems
The Internal Corner (ICI) is an important component in an aluminum formwork system that serves as a horizontal internal corner between the wall panels and the deck panels or beam soffit. It plays a crucial role in ensuring a seamless and well-formed connection at the intersection of these components, enhancing the structural integrity and overall appearance of the construction.
The Internal Corner is typically constructed using high-quality aluminum alloy, chosen for its strength, durability, and lightweight properties. It is specifically designed to fit into the internal corners of the formwork system, providing a secure and stable connection between the wall panels and the deck panels or beam soffit.
The primary function of the Internal Corner is to create a smooth transition and connection between the wall panels and the deck panels or beam soffit. It ensures that the formwork system maintains its shape and alignment during the pouring and curing of concrete, preventing any gaps, voids, or misalignments that could compromise the structural integrity of the construction.
The Internal Corner is installed horizontally at the internal corners of the formwork system, precisely fitting between the wall panels and the deck panels or beam soffit. It is securely fastened using hooks, pins, or other fastening mechanisms to maintain a tight connection.
