formworker/shuttering carpenter

"A formworker is responsible for installing and repairing temporary frameworks that support the building process during construction. These temporary structures can be made out of various materials but are most commonly either wood or metal and are used to help the moulding of concrete and other materials."

https://www.practicaladultinsights.com/what-does-a-shutterin...
"A shuttering carpenter is a professional who specializes in creating formwork or shuttering, which are temporary structures used in the concrete pouring process. Shuttering refers to wooden boards or metal plates that are positioned and supported using rods and stakes known as falsework; once these boards or plates are in place, concrete can be poured within the created molds. The molds will hold the concrete in place as it sets, thereby creating a solid, smooth structure. A shuttering carpenter will usually be specially trained to work in this field. "

formwork carpenter


A formwork carpenter is a type of skilled worker who specializes in constructing formwork that acts as a mold in which concrete can be poured and supported until it sets. This type of carpenter will work with various types of formwork and falsework to create a usable mold before any concrete pouring processes begin. The formwork carpenter may or may not also help in the process of pouring the concrete and monitoring as it sets. Once the concrete has set fully, the carpenter will be responsible for removing the falsework and formwork.

Een betontimmerman of bekister is een bouwvakker die bekistingen van hout of metaal maakt. In de (traditionele) bouw maakt hij de bekistingen volgens de aangeleverde vormtekeningen.

Samen met de ijzervlechter, die het betonstaal op de juiste plaats monteert, geeft de betontimmerman dus vorm aan de betonnen bouwelementen, voornamelijk funderingen en de hoofdconstructie (kolommen, vloeren, liftkokers, wanden, balken en lateien) van gebouwen.

"What does it take to become a CONCRETE SHUTTERER?

A concrete shutterer’s job description includes fabricating and setting up the forms in which concrete is poured to create walkways, walls, pillars and other structures. Work alongside construction workers by erecting and setting forms for concrete structures, they build wooden moulds and clamp them using appropriate hand tools in fabricating concrete beams, columns and panels. They also introduce rebar or wire mesh to reinforce the material, use trowels and other tools to spread and smooth concrete, and mold expansion joins and edges. They interpret blueprints and read survey stakes with a view to establish appropriate grades, prepare worksites for concrete footings and assemble concrete forms on specified locations."
