Insulating concrete forms (ICFs) are hollow blocks, planks, or panels made from rigid foam plastic insulation or from composites of cement and other mateterals and which have the ability to act as forms for cast-in-place concrete walls. While gaining in popularity as an alternative to light-frame construction, the lack of consistent and comprehensive standards has prevented ICF systems from reaching their full potential among builders and officials who may be unfamiliar with this construction technique.

Formwork for Concrete has been written to serve a broad range of needs for information on formwork. For the experience designer or builder of formwork, it is a ready reference on material properties, design data, and construction suggestions. For the engineer-architect it adds guidance in relating details of the sturcture's design to the problems and possibilities of executing them in concrete. For the novice the book provides an introduction to many common formwork practices, explaining basic design principles and encouraging a rational rather than rule of thumb approach to formwork. -- book jacket.
