Quick Answers

Is table formwork the same as flying formwork?
Yes. They describe the same method: a pre-assembled slab forming table sized to a structural bay. "Flying" refers to the crane move that lifts the whole table out and sets it on the floor above between pours.
What plywood thickness should a flying table deck use?
18 mm film-faced plywood is the working baseline for typical secondary-beam centres and normal slab depths. Step up to 21 mm where beam spacing is wide, the slab is deep with heavy live load, or the finish leaves no room for between-beam deflection in the soffit.
How many times can a table formwork deck panel be reused?
It depends on adhesive class and site handling. A phenolic EN 636-3 panel such as Pro Form carries up to 20 reuse cycles; a higher-melamine MUF EN 636-2 panel such as Form Extra carries up to 15. These are maximums, not guarantees — unsealed cut edges and drop damage cut them short.
Does Vinawood supply table or flying formwork systems?
No. The table frame, beams, props, heads and lifting hooks come from a system vendor. Vinawood supplies the plywood deck panel that faces the concrete on top of that table — the consumable part you replace as it wears.
Why does a table deck fail early?
Most early failures trace back to the site, not the panel. Edge swell starts at unsealed saw cuts and drilled holes, drop damage during the fly cracks the deck, and standing water between pours works the film loose. Edge sealing, careful handling and dry storage extend deck life.
