Engineering-grade formwork.No spreadsheets. No guesswork.
BS-compliant calculations, optimized cutting layouts, scaffolding MTO, and Gantt scheduling — all in one platform built for site teams.
The Problem
Formwork is 20–30% of structure cost.
Most teams still plan it with spreadsheets.
Manual DXF tracing, rule-of-thumb calculations, and disconnected Excel files mean over-ordering, compliance gaps, and hours of rework — on every floor of every project.
Engineers manually trace DXF outlines and estimate cuts by eye — routinely over-ordering by 30–40% per floor.
Rules of thumb replace structural calculations. No code compliance check, no formal report — just unverified risk.
Material take-offs counted manually from drawings. Over-ordering is the norm; shortages still happen mid-project.
Gantt charts live in Excel with no link to material demand. Updates are manual. Forecasts are guesses.

How It Works
From drawing to decision in minutes.
Three steps. No training required. Works for the full formwork cycle — plywood, falsework, scaffolding, and scheduling.
Each tool takes the inputs it needs: slab drawings or dimensions, load parameters, scaffolding layout, or building schedule — all in a guided form.
PlyMax computes optimized cutting layouts, code-compliant structural designs, accurate material take-offs, and schedule-linked Gantt charts — in seconds.
Download professional deliverables your whole team can act on: PDF engineering reports, cutting layout exports, Excel MTOs for procurement, and Gantt schedules.

Testimonials

See what construction professionals are saying about PlyMax
"Throughout my career, I've insisted on manually planning our plywood layouts, it's simply smart business to reduce waste. PlyMax finally gives us a powerful system that automates this exact process, scaling that efficiency across every project. It's a significant and immediate win."
"PlyMax streamlined our entire cutting process. By moving work to the workshop and reducing miscuts, our team saved valuable time and progressed faster. The improvement to our workflow was significant."
"The savings with PlyMax are already clear with standard plywood. But when we apply that same optimization to more durable, high-cost materials like PVC sheathing, the ROI is magnified significantly. It's a strategic shift in how we manage our most valuable assets."
