Contrete reaches its full strength in 28 days. Then, why are we removing shutter in 7/ 14 days?..

Answer / v.kapil

Concrete get its 50 % strength in 3 days and 66.6% in 7 days
with OPC grade of cement, we designed our structure for
full load including of factor of safety but actually such
loads never come structure in its whole life span, only 40-
50% loads ware accoured during construction so we can
remove our form work after 7-10 days but after confirmation
of cube results of 7 days.

Answer / saif raza

As deshuttering period is desrcibe in IS code for diffrent

for deshutering purpose minimum strength required is
between 65 to 75% & concrete gain more then 65% atseven
days so it is safe to remove.
