Which item is part of a forming checklist?

• A. Panelization
• B. Rebar
• C. Edge forms
• D. Bond breaker

Answer: (C)

In tilt-up forming, a checklist focuses on the formwork components that actually shape and contain the concrete. Edge forms are the elements that define the panel’s outer boundary, control the thickness, alignment, and the exposed edge finish, and they must be in place and braced before pouring. This makes them a fundamental item on a forming checklist because without properly set edge forms, the panel geometry and edge quality can’t be guaranteed.

The other items relate to different aspects: panelization is about organizing the layout of multiple panels, rebar is reinforcement placed inside the concrete rather than part of the forming boundary, and bond breaker is used to prevent sticking at interfaces and is more about release or separation than defining the panel edge.
