Aspectos clave sobre selección de tableros, rotaciones en obra, especificaciones y envíos.
Es un término comercial habitual para los tableros de polímero empleados como superficie de encofrado. Para evaluarlo, se deben analizar el tipo de polímero (PP o PVC), la sección transversal, las medidas y las instrucciones de uso.
No, pertenecen a familias de materiales diferentes. Tener el mismo espesor no implica igual peso, rigidez o comportamiento estático; se deben comparar con datos técnicos verificados.
Dependiendo del cuidado en obra, el desencofrado y el acopio, los tableros alcanzan habitualmente entre 40 y 80+ puestas de hormigonado bajo condiciones correctas de uso.
El precio se define en función del polímero (PP/PVC), espesor (15, 18, 21 mm), volumen de compra (tableros, palets o camión completo) y el destino de entrega acordado.
Se comprueba a través de las fichas técnicas del fabricante y certificados de conformidad. SerPlywood acredita la composición del polímero y los porcentajes de reciclabilidad en su documentación técnica.
La resistencia al agua es su mayor ventaja frente a la madera (no se hincha ni se deslamina). Sin embargo, la flecha bajo carga y la dilatación térmica requieren un diseño adecuado.
