Gyroid Form - Development and Fabrication

Development : 

Concrete Form-work 

We designed a form-work structure that could be used for several test pours. It consists of: 
  • -Plywood Base - or any flat surface
  • -8 pieces of 3/4" plywood for bracing and panel attachment 
  • -four pieces of 1/4" plywood - used as wall panels
Assembly:
  • Use a nail gun to fasten the 3/4" pieces to the 1/4" plywood. 
  • There will be a short side and a long side.
  • The Short side will take into consideration the adjacent 1/4" plywood dimension. (Corner detail 1)
  • The long side will take into consideration the adjacent 3/4" plywood dimension. (Corner detail 2)
  • At the corners, drill holes so that the panels can be braced to one another. (This will create easy fastening and removal)
  • Base will also be drilled so that it can be fastened to the 3/4" pieces.
