Aluminium Formwork - An Innovation in Construction Technology

 

Nowadays, aluminium formwork is more popular due to its high strength and lightweight characteristics. It is comparatively a new technology which is a significant cost and time saver. What’s more, it can improve the quality of construction immensely. When implemented in the load-bearing design, this formwork can provide with significant savings. Also, the use of this formwork increases the usable floor space of a specific structure. Formwork comprising aluminium is environment friendly and makes the structure earthquake resistant. 

The versatility of Formworks Comprising Aluminium

When formworks containing aluminium are used, the architect doesn’t have to alter the building layout. It can be accommodated even when the construction process is already underway. Aluminium formworks can form any structural design which makes them immensely popular in the construction industry. It can form all of the concrete in a specific building, including walls, balconies, slabs, etc. With formwork containing aluminium, there is no need to plaster the walls.

The durability of the Construction Units

When formwork containing aluminium is used, all concrete walls are poured monolithically. This ensures that there are no construction joints issues from where cracks can reoccur in future. Smooth concrete finish is essential to maintain the overall durability of the building.

As the tendency of plaster to break away are well-known, formworks containing aluminium can be used extensively. When there are no joints, the structure becomes quite sturdy. This is also the reason that buildings constructed with aluminium formworks are earthquake resistant.  

RCC Load Bearing

Formwork system containing aluminium for RCC loads bearing a standard procedure for construction. Note that this procedure is followed for those building that lies in high seismic zones. The RCC framed multi-storied buildings can be poured with this formwork. This plays a decisive role in increasing the overall stability of the structure. Due to exceptional tolerance achieved in the metal framework components, the resultant concrete shapes are consistent.

Unlike other construction systems, the frameworks containing aluminium can be executed by unskilled labour. So if you opt for these systems, you can save a significant amount of money on labour charges too. The most extensive panel weighs not more than 30 kilograms which implies you don't need specialised equipment. 

Shuttering techniques are fast gaining prominence in the construction industry. They are cost-effective and render excellent stability to the overall structure of the building.

Nova Formworks have carved a niche in the realm of the construction industry. Their panel construction techniques use the latest technologies and innovations.
