A formwork panel of a formwork system, comprising:
- a laterally adjustable filler assembly, including:
- two side rails;
- a laterally adjustable inner rail comprising a first receiving end abutting against one rail, a second receiving end abutting against another rail, and a filler removably attached to and extending between the first receiving end and the second receiving end;
- and
- a tie inserted into a respective one of the two side rails and inserted into the laterally adjustable inner rail thereby connecting the respective one of the two side rails to the laterally adjustable inner rail,
- wherein the tie is inserted into the respective one of the two side rails and is inserted into the laterally adjustable inner rail via a press fit and is configured to be removed from the respective one of the two side rails and reconnected to the respective one of the two side rails and the tie is configured to be removed from the laterally adjustable inner rail and reconnected to the laterally adjustable inner rail,
- wherein the filler prevents movement between the first receiving end and the second receiving end.
