PSB® Conform.

Key PSB® Conform Information

  • PSB® Conform is specifically designed for shuttering applications, providing robust support for heavy loads during the concrete pouring process, ensuring stability and security of formwork systems throughout construction. Its strong structural composition prevents deformation under the weight of fresh concrete.
  • PSB® Conform is suitable for environments with high moisture exposure, minimizing the risk of thickness swelling.
  • PSB® Conform offers exceptional durability, providing long-lasting performance even in demanding construction environments. Its resistance to wear and tear during the formwork process helps reduce maintenance costs and extend the lifespan.
  • PSB® Conform is resistant to warping and deformation, making it ideal for challenging environments.
  • PSB® Conform is ideal for creating reusable formwork for concrete pouring, enabling precise shaping and reducing waste in construction projects.
  • PSB® Conform offers a cost-effective solution, being reusable up to 40+ times.
  • PSB® Conform delivers standard performance with a modulus of elasticity of 3,500 Newtons per square millimeter (N/mm²) and a modulus of rupture ranging from 18 to 22 Newtons per square millimeter (N/mm²).

PSB® Conform Applications.

Concrete Forming

PSB® Conform Shuttering board’s strength, resistance to wear and moisture, provide significant cost savings and reusability.

Best Practices.

Since the PSB® Conform will be exposed to moisture, the edges of the boards must be coated. In the case of resizing, the newly cut edges must also be coated.

For components being fastened, such as beams, rafters, joists, and trusses, pre-drilling is essential. The diameter of the pre-drilled hole should be smaller than the screw diameter to ensure effective engagement of the screw threads.

During transportation and storage, ensure that sufficient protective covers are provided to safeguard the PSB® Conform.

Use screws, nails, or staples for fastening, ensuring the length is at least 2.5 times the thickness of the board, but no less than 50-75 millimeters (mm). Fastening should occur at intervals of 150-300 millimeters (mm) on intermediate supports (depending on roof pitch), every 150 millimeters (mm) on board joints, and every 100 millimeters (mm) along roof edges.

Use an appropriate release agent to prevent concrete from sticking to the PSB® Conform and to improve the ease of formwork removal.
