Formwork

University of Pittsburgh Digital Library · 1918

A reinforced concrete coal bin under construction near Holt, Alabama. Concrete has been poured into a series of wooden molds, or formwork, which give the structure its bristly appearance. After the concrete sets, the formwork will be removed. In the background to the right, the backyards and outhouses of a residential neighborhood can been seen.

Additive Formwork: 3D Printed Flexible Formwork

Brian W. Peters · ACADIA quarterly · 2014

Additive Formwork explores the potential and advantages of 3D printed, flexible formwork for architectural applications, specifically precast concrete panels. This research experiments with 3D printed malleable polymers as a mold at both a small and large scale, to determine the limitations and opportunities for architects and designers in construction.

Impact of Mivan Formwork over Conventional Formwork

Aaqib Majid Khan, Chitranjan Kumar, Ramesh Kannan et al. · International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) · 2017

This paper describes in brief the the need of mivan formwork in the Indian construction industry.Construction is one of the significant sectors of Indian economy and is an integral part of the development.With the globalization of Indian economy and introduction of multinationals in India for the construction and nations pride program of golden quadrilateral, it has become foremost to have speedy construction and timely completion of projects. Now days, low waste modern formwork systems for superstructure construction are commonly adopted. Formwork system affects on the cost, time, and quality of project delivery. But still these formwork systems are not much used in India and most of the contractors do not like to shift to the latest technology as they have the doubt of facing losses in the project and they are very much familiar with the existing formwork type, the conventional type. At the same time they believe that these formwork systems are bit expensive. This study is based on the survey conducted on a construction site namely Jaypee Krescent Homes at sec 134 Noida UP. This paper describes the comparative analysis of conventional formwork and tailor made (MIVAN) formwork on the basis of cost, quality time and strength parameters.

Impact of Plastic Formwork over Conventional Formwork

Imtiyaz Mohi U Din, Chitranjan Kumar · International Journal of Scientific Engineering and Research · 2017

Formwork is a major component of any Civil engineering construction. The construction of formwork takes time andinvolves the expenditure up to 20 to 25% of the cost of the structure or even more.It is envisaged that such a formwork will be more productive and possible to use for more number of cycles. Indian construction industry has grown by leaps and bounds and Thus with the globalization of Indian economy & introduction of multinational companies in India for construction activities, it has become imperative to have precise & speedy construction projects. . In this paper, an attempt is made to have a comparative study of established conventional formwork technology with Plastic formwork which are currently not used much in Indian construction industry. However, in practice, the selection of an appropriate formwork system has depended mainly on the intuitive and subjective opinion of working level employees with restricted experience. Plastic formwork systems have been creating a buzz in recent times with their advantages including flexibility, durability and cost-effectiveness. 'Plastic formwork' is only possible solution to this problem as it is recyclable, reusable and eco-friendly. Plastic formwork is a new innovation in formwork industry and it is famous for its light weight, speedy construction and In with high degree of quality control & assurance in work is obtained. This technology is mostly suitable for projects to be completed in short period of time, where columns, beams, slab sizes are standard. These technologies gives more accurate results and good quality of construction in optimum cost and minimum time and hence suggest this method is superior for the construction project

Formwork Design

Richard C. Ringwald · Journal of Construction Engineering and Management · 1985

The American Concrete Institute's methodology for designing formwork adequate for its loading is condensed, organized, and simplified into a two‐page, step‐by‐step format of equations and instructions that cover most formwork design situations. Plotted design curves are shown and their limitations discussed.

Bio-Formwork

Benjamin N. Kemper · Open Conference Proceedings · 2022

The following research synthesizes biopolymers with digital fabrication tools, such as robotic 3D printing, to complement existing research on reducing the amount of concrete used in buildings. It investigates bio-based and biodegradable polymers for concrete formworks. The climate crisis challenges architects and designers to explore alternative opportunities for sustainable fabrication processes. Biopolymers have emerged as a potential material to replace petroleum-based plastics used in the built environment. This research aims to rethink the materials used in the construction of buildings and suggests introducing bio-based and biodegradable materials in architecture.

SLIP FORMWORK

Aditya Dadaso Desai, Vishnu Dnyaneshwar Biradar, Dr. Prof D.B. Desai · 2022

Slip forming is one of the most effective processes for constructing unconventional structures such as cooling towers, chimneys, and silos, as well as roadway and bridge construction. Formwork made using slips techniques used on a construction with a height of more than 16 meters and its unique design. Techniques for erection that are both quick and cost-effective. Slip forming takes into account. The fastest erection is 7.2 meters per day. procedure. They have a variety of components, and when they're finished, they're ready to use. It was elevated up and further by the hydraulic jack of curtain height concreting. It's possible to undertake some concreting. As a result, these methods are quick and efficient. Savings; cost-effective; and fewer workers are required.
