Formwork with form panels and connecting means

Formwork particularly for pouring concrete structures with form panels (1) and means for connecting the panels, comprising marginal sections (2) having a closed, hollow cross section provided along parallel edges of and located at right angles to a lining skin (4) of form panels (1), said marginal section comprising an abutment web (5) that extends longitudinally along an outermost edge of the form panel (1) and serves to be laid tightly against a corresponding abutment web of a neighboring form panel, said marginal section further having a holding web (6) approximately parallel to the abutment web, said holding web having points of applications adapted for the attachment of connecting clamps (7) which embrace the marginal sections (2) Of adjacent form panels (1), said abutment web (5) having perforations (10) therein for inserting connecting bolts (11), the perforations (10) being arranged side by side, in spaced relationship along the longitudinal direction of the abutment web (5), each perforation (10) being oblong in shape for receiving a connecting bolt (11) having at least one projection (12) jutting out radially from an end of the bolt, the projection being insertable with the connecting bolt (11) through the oblong perforation (10) and engaging behind an edge of the perforation (10) in a locking position when twisted in the perforation, the perforations (10) in the abutment web (5) having a spacing and size which corresponds with dimensions of similar perforations in flat marginal strips (13) of neighboring form panels (1), the bolt (11) having a counter-stop (14) spaced axially from the projection (12), said axial spacing corresponding to an overall thickness of marginal strip (13) plus abutment web (5).
