Abstract

Formwork, matrices, concrete matrices and methods of manufacture are described. The formwork may be configured to receive and retain concrete within an internal void space and has a concrete free external void space. Also described is a concrete matrix formed using the formwork and related methods of manufacture of a formwork matrix and formwork. The formwork itself and matrices formed from the formwork may have a degree of compressive strength. With concrete poured and set into the formwork, the resulting concrete matrix has a very high compressive strength and forms a structural matrix on which a hardscape or load may be placed. The above formwork, matrices, and methods reduces the number of parts needed to form a formwork or matrix and may facilitate snap fit design and installation and hence the ability to assemble the matrix toolessly.
