Using elongated forms to customise manholes and access chambers

If the round manhole form you’re looking to use suddenly requires a short notice variation to accommodate multiple pipes adjacent to each other, don’t despair. Perhaps your digger has uncovered inlets that are spread a little far apart. But you won’t have to worry about long wait times as you organise a correct fit. You can rely on elongated forms (also known as extended forms) to fully accommodate the configuration of pipes into your manhole, and instantly get your project back on track.

Extended forms are customisable panels inserted into manhole forms that can be adjusted to suit the size variations you require. If need an exact fit in time, extended forms will do the trick. Does this sound like the kind of adaptable tool you’ve been searching for? Allow us to take you through the basics of how they work.

It’s important that any manholes you’re pouring suit the correct size and accessibility required for their service. If you’re pouring a standard round manhole and realise that you need to change the shape or size of your forms to an extended form, you should reconnect panels correctly so the edges of the panels remain flush against one another. Ensure that you don’t split the forms at the keys, as key edges are angled and must connect with like panels. If you’re looking to utilise elongated forms for your project, Manhole Form Hire offers these extension panels for your convenience.

If you’re looking to expand or extend your manhole forms and you are tight on time, extended forms are the perfect tool to safeguard your project pipeline. Don’t waste time worrying about resizing your forms and going back and forth to find the right fit, utilise the malleable functionality of elongated forms and bypass all the hassle.
