About

At AFD we have experience and lots of it. We have been successfully constructing formwork from our own design drawings for over 20 years. This means that our drawings can be built from with confidence. We believe that with our drawings you can save up to 10 % from your labour costs and be accurate in a material count to almost 100%.

AFD drawings make constructing formwork easier for you, your foreperson, your leading hands, your carpenters and for your framing crew. Just imagine your people not head scratching looking through plans any more. Our drawings are easy to read for anybody to follow. All drawings are produced to an engineering standard which you or AFD can get certified.

See what a difference AFD detailed drawings can make to your square metre rate of production. We have a huge amount of design, manage and formwork construction experience. From large to small scale jobs. From multi-story to broad-acre jobs to units. From commercial to civil jobs. From Power Stations to Bridges all at Tier 1,2 and 3 levels.
