what is shuttering co efficient?

Answer Posted / Ankit Prasad

The shuttering coefficient (also known as formwork factor) in civil engineering refers to the ratio of the volume of concrete placed within a formwork or shuttering, to the gross volume of the formwork. It is used for estimating the amount of concrete required for a given space. The shuttering coefficient varies depending on the shape and arrangement of forms and can range between 0.65 and 0.85 for common geometric configurations.
