Fastfoot Footing Forms
DRIER. FROM THE GROUND UP.
Fastfoot® is a fabric footing form that
prevents rising damp. Stakes are driven into the
ground, 2x4 screed boards attached at the
correct height, and Fastfoot® is stapled to each
2x4 to form and protect the concrete from ground
moisture.

II -
Fastfoot® used as an edge form

the footing (or slab) is too wide to be formed
with a single width of fabric.
