Formwork System: Aluminum Formwork System
Aluminium Formwork System is a kind of construction system for forming cast in place main concrete structure of a building. It’s also a system for scheduling and controlling the work of other construction trades such as steel reinforcement, concrete placement and mechanical and electrical conduits.
Aluminum Formwork System is featured with fast, simple, adaptable and very cost-effective. It is unique because it forms all of the concrete in a building including walls, floor slabs, columns, beams, stairs, window hoods, balconies and various decorative features in exact accordance with the architects' design. The dimensional accuracy of the concreted work also results in consistent fittings of doors and windows. The smooth–off-form finish of the concrete eliminates the need for costly plastering.
Aluminium Formwork System provides Aluminium Formwork for RCC load-bearing or RCC framed multi-storied buildings and enables the walls and slabs to be poured in the same operation. These increases efficiency and also produces an extraordinarily strong structure with excellent concrete finish. Due to the fine tolerance achieved in the machined metal formwork components, consistent concrete shapes and finishes are obtained floor after floor. This allows plumbing and electrical fittings to be prefabricated with the certain knowledge that there will be an exact fit when assembled.
Unlike other construction systems, aluminium formwork system can be erected by unskilled labour worker and without the need for hoisting cranes. The largest panel weighs not more than 25 kgs which means it can be handled by a single worker.
