Bridge formwork refers to a temporary or permanent mold system into which fresh concrete is poured and cast to form specific structural components of a bridge. This is a critical engineered system that must withstand the immense hydrostatic and dynamic loads of wet concrete, construction live loads, and environmental forces, while ensuring the precise dimensional accuracy and surface finish required for bridge structures. Our formwork systems are not merely containers for concrete but are high-precision tools that directly impact structural integrity, project timelines, and overall costs.
Our formwork solutions are tailored for all major bridge components:
Substructure:
Abutments and Wing Walls: Custom-sized formwork for complex earth-retaining structures.
Piers and Columns: Systems for circular, rectangular, or irregular-shaped columns of significant height, including single-piece "jump" or "slip" forming systems for tall piers.
Pile Caps and Foundations: Heavy-duty formwork for mass concrete pours.
Superstructure:
Girders and Beams: Formwork for precast I-beams, U-beams, and box girders, as well as cast-in-situ girders.
Deck Slabs: Large-area formwork systems supported by falsework or suspended from completed girders.
Segmental Balanced Cantilever Construction: Specialized self-launching form travelers for constructing bridge decks segment-by-segment from piers.
Bridge Overhangs (Haunches): Brackets and systems for forming cantilevered deck sections.
3.1. Structural Performance & Safety
High Load-Bearing Capacity: Engineered to withstand concrete pressures exceeding 90 kN/m², with options for higher ratings for specialized applications like pylon construction.
Minimal Deflection: Utilizes high-strength steel and aluminum alloys with controlled elastic deformation (typically < L/270 or L/360 of panel span) to ensure dimensional accuracy and seamless concrete finish.
Integrated Safety Systems: Features built-in guardrail posts, toe guards, and scaffold attachment points to comply with stringent international safety standards (e.g., EN 12812, EN 12813).
3.2. Unmatched Efficiency & Constructability
Modular Design: Standardized panel sizes with universal connection details enable rapid assembly and disassembly, reducing labor and crane time.
Adaptability & Reusability: Highly configurable systems suitable for diverse geometries. High-quality materials and coatings ensure long service life with over 100 reuses for steel systems, delivering low cost-per-pour.
Mechanized Systems: We supply advanced Self-Climbing Formwork (Auto-Climbing Systems) for bridge pylons and tall piers, which use hydraulic cylinders to climb, eliminating crane needs for each lift and drastically accelerating cycle times.
3.3. Superior Finish & Precision
High-Quality Facing Materials: Options include high-density, phenolic-coated film-faced plywood for smooth, consistent finishes, or steel skin for high-reuse applications requiring exceptionally flat surfaces.
Tight Tolerances: Manufactured to meet international tolerance standards (e.g., ±2mm over a 3m span), ensuring precise alignment and geometry of the final concrete structure.
Leak-Free Joints: Proprietary sealants and jointing systems prevent grout loss, minimizing surface blemishes and costly post-cast repairs.
Steel Formwork: For heavy-duty, high-reuse applications. Panels typically use hot-rolled steel sheet (minimum yield strength 235 MPa) with structural steel frames.
Aluminum Formwork: Lighter weight (approx. 1/3 that of steel) for faster handling and reduced crane demand, ideal for repetitive layouts.
Climbing Formwork: A system comprising wall formwork, working platforms, and climbing rails that uses hydraulic jacks to "climb" the hardened concrete structure.
Formwork Traveler: A movable formwork system used in balanced cantilever construction, capable of supporting and forming each new bridge deck segment.
Our systems are designed and certified to comply with major international standards, including EN 12812, EN 12813, and AS 3610. We provide comprehensive engineering support, including:

Pile cap steel formwork is used for concrete pouring of pile caps in civil engineering projects such as bridges, viaducts and highways. It is usually assembled from flat formwork made of Q235b steel, which has high strength and rigidity and can withstand large pressure and shear forces. The design and manufacture of Pansol pile cap steel formwork needs to consider the specific requirements and actual conditions of the project, including the size, shape, bearing capacity, service life and construction process of the formwork.
Circular Column Steel Formwork is a kind of formwork specially used for pouring concrete circular column structure, which is widely used in the construction industry for its excellent mechanical properties and durability. In practice, circular column steel formwork is usually used in bridges, buildings, water conservancy and other engineering fields, especially when it is necessary to pour round column structures.
The square pier formwork is a steel formwork system designed for the construction of square pier structures in bridge projects. It is suitable for bridge construction scenarios such as highways, railways, and waterways. It has the advantages of high strength, high precision, easy installation, and reusability, which can significantly improve the construction efficiency and quality of pier concrete pouring.
