TY - JOUR T1 - Use of PVC fittings as negative forms moulds for making concrete castings in sculpting practice A1 - Michał Banaszek A1 - Kinga Rybak-Niedziółka JO - Acta Sci. Pol.

Practical tests were carried out in order to determine the complexity of making such a casting in relation to traditional methods, of forging plaster negative forms. Tests were also carried out on the susceptibility of selected PVC construction products to shape modification before casting by local heating of the product walls with temperature of maximum 550°C.
