 The Precise
Trimform System has been utilized very effectively for concrete homes, apartments,
warehouses, prisons, as well as in the earth sheltered industry due to the systems
versatility and ease of use. Almost any style home can be built out of concrete, including
multi-story homes.

 Precise Forms has been recognized around the world as an innovative leader in
monolithically poured structures. The Precise Trimform System will enable you to form and pour
the walls, beams, columns, and deck in one continuous pour. The window and
door openings are cast in place simultaneously with the walls and ceilings. With the
rising cost of lumber, all concrete structures are a definite alternative. The
modular design of the Precise Trimform System permits unlimited configurations and
architectural designs. Precise forms are available in the attractive smooth finish
or our popular brick patterns. A pitched ledger is available for homes with a
pitched roof.
 The Precise
Trimform System has been utilized very effectively internationally as well as in the earth
sheltered and underground home industry. The Precise Forming System is simple
to operate. Few tools are required and unskilled laborers are easily
trained. Developers are setting and pouring a unit a day. Entire subdivisions have
been built using the Precise Forming System.
This system greatly reduces the need for loose hardware which lowers
your accessory cost, setting time, stripping time, and labor cost. The system is
self locking, but slots are provided for those special jobs when wedges are desired. Learn
more about our attached hardware.
With the Precise Trimform System your options are almost limitless. The
smooth aluminum forms can be combined with the textured forms to add creative design
elements to homes and apartments.
Precise aluminum forms are the key to fast, low-cost construction
because it requires far less labor than conventional wood frame construction. Using the 3'
wide, lightweight Precise forming system, a small crew can form and monolithically pour an
entire building level in just days. When the forms are stripped the exterior walls are
complete, ready for painting. The entire structure is closed in, protected from the
weather so interior finishing moves ahead rapidly, without costly delays because of
weather conditions.
All-concrete construction drastically reduces the annual, long-term
expense of insurance premiums because of its natural resistance to fire, vandalism or
other forms of damage that conventional construction is so susceptible to.
Concrete is the most fire-resistant of all building materials. The
chart shows that all-concrete construction can provide a fire resistant rating of up to 3
hours.
All-concrete construction eliminates noise complaints because it is
naturally soundproof. It practically eliminates the intrusion of exterior noise and
dramatically reduces the transmission of sound from unit to unit.
All-concrete construction significantly reduces annual maintenance for
the life of the structure. It is impervious to rodents and insects. Unaffected by hail,
flood or other water damage and requires less frequent painting.
The biggest advantage of all-concrete construction over conventional
wood lies in energy conservation. It can become increasingly important in the sale, rent
ability or profitability of any investment property as fuel shortages and fuel costs
continue to rise.
To create the deck, the Precise Trimform Ledger System uses a series of
telescoping beams and shoring posts to support standard forms. The forms are locked
together using bolts and nuts or by using the Set-n-Lok System.
