Formwork & Reinforcement

All projects include professional formwork, rebar or wire mesh installation, and precise elevation control to guarantee strength, consistency, and clean edges.

Formwork & Reinforcement by J&V Construction in Knoxville, TN

How we do it

The pour happens in a few hours; the formwork and reinforcement decide how it turns out. We set forms straight, braced and at the correct elevation, and place rebar or wire mesh on chairs so it ends up inside the concrete where it does its job.

Formwork and reinforcement are part of every concrete job we do, and we also take them on for builders and contractors who need forms set and steel placed for their own pour.

What's included

  • Form layout and setting to finished elevation
  • Bracing and staking for straight, clean edges
  • Rebar cutting, bending, placing and tying
  • Wire mesh placed on chairs at the correct depth
  • Inspection-ready setup before the pour
  • Form stripping after curing

Common questions

Do you only do formwork for your own pours?

No. We also set forms and place reinforcement for builders and contractors.

Rebar or wire mesh — which do I need?

It depends on the load, the slab thickness and the plans. We recommend the right reinforcement for your project during the site visit.
