An elevated beam's plywood sides can come off the day after the pour, but the soffit shores must stay. Why?

Side forms carry the gravity load of the beam Side forms do not support the beam's weight; the soffit and shores do, so they stay until tests or the drawings show enough strength OSHA requires all forms to be stripped at 12 hours ACI 318 requires soffits to be stripped before the sides

Side forms do not support the beam's weight; the soffit and shores do, so they stay until tests or the drawings show enough strength
