How long does it take to deshutter a slab?
Under IS 456, with OPC at normal temperatures, slab soffit sheets can come off after 3 days if props are re-fixed at once; the props stay 7 days for spans up to 4.5 m or 14 days for longer spans. PPC, PSC and cool weather need longer.
How many days to remove column formwork?
16–24 hours after casting under IS 456, for OPC concrete at normal temperatures. Strip carefully so the edges are not chipped, then start curing the column at once with wet hessian.
