ACI 347R-14, "Guide to Formwork for Concrete," is a critical industry standard that provides essential recommendations for the design, construction, and safety of concrete formwork. It defines key responsibilities for contractors, addresses lateral pressure calculations based on placement speed and temperature, and outlines procedures for material selection, inspection, and safe stripping/reshoring.

Why ACI 347-14 Matters
Content:
- When to strip: based on field-cured cylinder strengths (e.g., 70–75% of design f’c for slabs, 100% for long spans).
- Procedures to avoid impact damage.
- Re-shoring requirements after stripping.
