Formwork removal times must be calculated based on concrete maturity, temperature, and target stripping strength.

Requires systematic internal inspection within the construction company. srps en 13670

The standard mandates that formwork must be sufficiently strong, rigid, and stable to support the fresh concrete without significant deformation. It also sets requirements for the surface finish (roughness, texture) depending on the specified concrete cover and aesthetic requirements. A key point is the requirement for formwork joints to be tight enough to prevent loss of cement paste (leakage), which would weaken the concrete. Formwork removal times must be calculated based on

This is where theory meets practice. The standard requires procedures for: It also sets requirements for the surface finish

With Serbia’s EU accession process and the globalization of engineering services, it became imperative to align with documents. SRPS EN 13670 replaced old national regulations, ensuring:

| Aspect | Old SRPS (Pre-2010) | SRPS EN 13670 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Prescriptive, fixed rules | Performance-based, flexible with verification | | Tolerances | Often lenient | Stricter, related to EXC levels | | Curing | General advice | Detailed methods and duration by concrete type | | Inspection | Not systematic | Mandatory hold points | | Liability | Implicit | Clear: contractor responsible for execution |
