Form panel having marginal sections

Abstract

A form panel 1 has marginal sections 2, arranged at parallel edges or running around all the edges, which have a hollow cross-section and have in each case located at right angles to a lining skin 3 an abutment web 4 composing the outermost edge of the form panel 1. The abutment web 4 can be laid against a corresponding abutment web 4 or against a marginal strip 5, for instance a flat marginal strip 5 of a neighboring form panel. The further webs of the hollow marginal section 2 are in the form of an approximately U-shaped section 6 with two U-limbs 7, 8 and a crosspiece 29. The edges of the U-limbs 7, 8 are overlapped by the abutment web 4, and at least one U-limb, suitably the U-limb 7 remoter from the lining skin 3, is firmly connected, e.g., welded, to the abutment web 4. The abutment web 4 has a fastening flange 9 engaging, particularly lapping over the side of the lining skin 3 facing the concrete, but at the same time suitably sunk into the lining skin 3. A groove 10 for receiving and embracing the edge of the lining skin 3 is formed by the flange 9 together with the fastening web of the marginal section 2 and the intermediate portion of the abutment web 4, said fastening web formed by the U-limb 8 which is closest to the lining skin 3 and during use contacts the side of the lining skin facing away from the concrete. The lining skin is clamped in the groove with the aid of screws/bolts traversing the lining skin.
