Practical Applications of Shuttering Magnets in Construction


1. Securing Formwork Panels
Wall & Column Forms: Clamps steel-faced formwork panels vertically or horizontally during concrete pours.
Alignment Control: Maintains precise spacing and prevents bulging under wet concrete pressure.
Junction Reinforcement: Locks corner joints and T-sections where forms meet.


2. Anchoring Accessories to Forms
Vibration Equipment: Temporarily mounts internal or external vibrators to optimize concrete compaction.
Conduits & Embedded Parts: Holds electrical conduits, anchor bolts, or dowel sleeves in position prior to pouring.
Sensors & Monitoring Tools: Fixes temperature or pressure sensors to track concrete curing.


3. Preventing Formwork Failures
Blowout Mitigation: Reinforces high-stress zones (e.g., deep foundations, thick walls) resisting burst pressure.
Lateral Bracing: Stabilizes free-standing forms against wind or accidental impacts.


4. Supporting Curved/Irregular Structures
Arch & Dome Forms: Clamps flexible steel forms to molds for complex geometries.
Tunnel Linings: Secures segmental molds in circular or elliptical tunnel projects.


5. Accelerating Formwork Assembly
Rapid Installation: Replaces bolts/welds for faster formwork setup and dismantling.
Reusable Fixtures: Attaches lifting eyes or temporary handles to forms for crane maneuvers.


6. Temporary Safety & Site Operations
Fall Protection Anchor: Provides instant attachment points for guardrails on steel forms.
Tool Mounting: Hangs levels, lasers, or signage on formwork during operations.


7. Precast Concrete Production
Mold Assembly: Aligns and clamps mold sections for precast units (e.g., beams, panels).
Fixture Positioning: Holds inserts or embeds in molds without drilling.


8. Repair & Reinforcement
Patch Forming: Secures small forms over concrete spalls or cracks during repairs.
Emergency Bracing: Stabilizes damaged forms mid-pour without welding.



Application Category Specific Use Case Operational Value
Formwork Securing Vertical wall panel alignment Locks steel-faced forms flush during concrete pour; prevents misalignment
Column form bracing Reinforces circular/square column molds against bursting pressure
Beam soffit support Holds suspended bottom forms in place without scaffolding
Accessory Mounting Concrete vibrator attachment Temporarily fixes internal/external vibrators to optimize consolidation
Embedded item positioning Secures conduit pipes, anchor sleeves or lifters prior to casting
Safety & Temporary Works Fall protection anchor points Instantly creates guardrail tie-offs on steel forms at height
Tool/signage hanging Mounts levels, warning signs or drawings during operations
Complex Geometry Works Curved wall form retention Clamps flexible steel liners for arches/radial structures
Tunnel segment molds Fixes precast tunnel lining forms during assembly
Precast Production Mold clamping Aligns and seals mold sections for beams/wall panels without bolts
Fixture retention Holds inserts, lifting eyes or embeds in molds
Repair & Adaptation Emergency form patching Secures repair forms over cracks/spalls mid-construction
Formwork modification Temporarily adds bracing or extensions to existing forms
