Column Form Cuts Cracks
Greenstreak Column Forms isolate a 4-12" floor slab from the stationary column so the slab is free to contract or expand.
The round shape eliminates the inherent stress concentrations of rectan- gular forms, reducing the possibility of crackins.
The Tloor and column area can be ooured at the same time since the circuiar form is left in the concrete. This eliminates the problem of maintaining the same elevation in the separate pours and eliminates the time required to remove the wooden form.
Initial time saving in assembling the form is especially lmportant: The flat strip is pislis6 up with one hand on each end anil the tongue is shoved into the slot where it automatically locks and the form is ready to use. Standard form diameters are [8", 24" .30" , and 36". Standard dePths 4",5",6", and 8". with other sizes available.
