Formwork & Construction
H2O Beam
H20 timber formwork beams with spruce or LVL flanges and a 27mm plywood web — EN 13377 compliant, for concrete formwork and shoring applications.
Request a QuoteProduct Overview
The H2O beam is a lightweight, high-strength timber formwork beam used in concrete slab and wall forming systems. Its I-beam construction combines solid wood or LVL flanges with a plywood web, providing an excellent strength-to-weight ratio for repeated handling on construction sites. The beam is available in multiple standard lengths with end protection options to suit different formwork and shoring systems.

Construction & Components
Flange (Cord)
Spruce solid wood or LVL flange of 40 × 80 mm section, providing the primary bending strength.
Web (Plywood)
27 mm thick 3-ply plywood web, bonded with melamine or phenolic adhesive for moisture resistance.
End Protection
Painted, plastic caps (red / blue / green) or metal caps to protect beam ends from damage and moisture.
