Stripping

Stripping

If formwork of load-bearing elements is performed, they may only be removed then, when the concrete has hardened. The hardening period of the concrete is 30 days. For other concrete elements, the formwork planks can already be removed after 2-3 days, unless there is a risk of damage or destruction of the concrete element, for example, under your own weight. The stripped elements may only be fully loaded after the concrete has hardened. If frost occurs during concrete hardening, the hardening period should be extended by the duration of the frost.
