Abstract (EN): The in situ concreted elements are only possible with the use of formwork. Formwork has a decisive importance in safety conditions during work. However, the formwork projects are often designed just to his state of formwork ready and filled with concrete, thinking only of final structural stability. The safety con-ditions required for its realization are not taken into account. In this work, it is intended to present rules of good practice for the preparation of formwork projects associated with the provisional stability of its elemen-tary parts, inherent in its processes of assembly and disassembly. An adequate perspective to minimize the risk of falling from height and smashing arising from these operations
