The formwork engineering platform

Room to think.

Falsework checks, CupLock and plywood counts, and the pour programme — worked out, checked and kept current in one platform, so your engineers get back to engineering.

The overview

What is PlyMax?

Ninety seconds on what PlyMax is and what it does — from planning the pour to counting, cutting and tracking every floor.

The problem

Formwork is 20–30% of structure cost. Most teams still plan it by hand.

Look at any site engineer’s desk: traced drawings, rule-of-thumb sums, tally marks and a programme nobody trusts. Hours go into work a system should carry — on every floor of every project.

Is F5 ready to strip? Supplier needs the props count tonight.

None of this needs an engineer. All of it needs doing.
PlyMax carries it: four engineering tools in one platform, and Max to run them with you.
New · Meet Max

An engineer on your team who never leaves site.

Max lives inside PlyMax. He reads every building, slab and delivery you have, runs PlyMax’s own engines, and hands back the one thing that needs you: the decision.

What Max does for you

Knows your projects

Every building, slab, date and delivery — and what you’re looking at right now.

Plans like a planner

What-if scenarios to a finish date or a peak. Nothing goes live until you press Apply.

Runs the engines

Falsework checks and CupLock or frame take-offs, on PlyMax’s own calculators.

Watches your materials

Shortages before they happen, and whether to buy or rent — with the reason.

Speaks your language

Talk or type, in English or Arabic. Max answers in the language you use.

Shows you where

Opens the right page, points at it on screen, and remembers your past chats.

Room to think.

PlyMax exists for one belief: those who build should spend their minds on judgement, craft and engineering. The counting, the chasing and the re-planning belong to the system.

  • Every figure comes from your data and PlyMax’s engines
  • Never changes your live plan without you
  • Structural calls stay with your engineer

The platform

One loop. Every floor.

Formwork is a cycle: plan the pour, design the falsework, count the scaffold, track every slab, then pour, strip and move up. PlyMax runs the whole loop in one place, so each floor starts from what the last one finished.

Workspaces

Know where every project stands — before the meeting starts.

Group your projects into a workspace and PlyMax keeps the overview: each job against its own programme, target pours for every month, and the days that need a decision.

  • Every project against its own programmeDays ahead or behind, worst first, so the meeting starts where it should.
  • Target pours, month by monthWhat was planned, what was poured, and what this month still needs.
  • Clashes before they reach siteTwo pours on one day show up weeks ahead, not on the morning.
  • Present it, or send itFull-screen for the meeting room, or a pour schedule PDF for everyone else.

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."

Hany Ahmed
Construction Manager
Rowad Modern Engineering
"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."
