Abstract:

This article presents a study of the contractors' preference for formwork system selection in Indonesian context. As decision makers, contractors are faced with challenges in choosing the formwork system for a particular project. While conventional timber formwork has been the most used formwork system in Indonesia, aluminium formwork is present although it has not been widely used. Thus, this research investigates the current practices of available formwork systems and its selection criteria in Indonesia. A decision-making framework (DMF) is developed by considering the appropriate assessment

Abstract:

The civil and construction industry is the basis of industries, it has always been known as the "leading industry" and in such industry the basic material is reinforced concrete. Even in this 21st century materials science and engineering methods have developed perfectly, reinforced concrete still is the main structure material in civil and construction industry. Formwork activity is one of indispensable matters during concrete forming and hardening processes. Once the forming process has defect, it might cause the formwork collapse during the concrete placing procedure. Such damage will resul

Abstract:

The construction of reinforced concrete requires formwork, whether from timber, steel, or any other material. Generally, formwork accounts for 20% to 25% of a project's cost. This research aims to come up with new formulas that can guide the engineer in designing timber formwork in a safe, easy, and economical manner. By using the statistical analysis program in this study, we calculated the spacings of studs, wales, and ties in a faster manner than the traditional method by analysing the results of bending, shear, deflection, crushing, etc. The results of the study involve the effects of plac

Abstract:

Timber poles of the type “Mirunda” are commonly used in East Africa as formwork support structures for casting of reinforced concrete slabs, beams and canopies. It is also widely known that the “Mirunda” poles as structural members of formwork are massively used without any structural consideration and guidance. This common practice has resulted into wastage of natural resources and escalated construction costs. This study has attempted to establish the load bearing capacity of randomly selected “Mirunda” poles through laboratory testing. Using an existing construction site as a casestudy, the

Abstract:

Complex concrete elements are typically produced with lost formwork made out of timber or plastic. After usage, these timber or plastic panels are disposed of. This makes complex lost formwork a polluting and high-cost-inducing aspect of concrete construction. A possible solution for this problem could be 3D printing of concrete. This high degree of freedom construction process could easily be used to produce complex formwork. As the formwork stays in place, it has a function during and after the hardening of the inner concrete. Before hardening, the formwork keeps the fresh concrete in place.

Abstract This paper presents an analysis of timber-concrete composite beams. Said composite beams consist of rectangular timber beams and concrete slabs poured into the steel sheeting. The concrete slab is connected with the timber beam using special shear connectors. The authors of this article are trying to patent these connectors. The article contains results from a numerical analysis. It is demonstrated that the type of steel sheeting used as a lost formwork has an influence on the load-bearing capacity and stiffness of the timber-concrete composite beams.

Abstract:

The construction sector is swiftly evolving toward more sustainable practices. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is essential for assessing the environmental impact of construction materials. A crucial factor in this context is the wear-out coefficient (WOC), which indicates a material’s reusability and directly affects the amount of material used during a project’s life cycle. This study contrasts conventional timber formwork with alternative materials, including aluminum, steel, plywood, plastic, and various hybrid systems. The environmental consequences are assessed throughout several life cycle

Abstract:

The construction industry faces significant challenges, including environmental sustainability, rising material costs, and a shortage of skilled labor. Digital fabrication technologies offer innovative solutions to address these issues by reducing raw material consumption and waste generation. Among these, 3D printing technologies offer distinct advantages over traditional construction methods, particularly in handling complex geometries. However, the significant environmental impact of cement in 3D printed concrete, due to its high rheological and printability requirements, remains a concern.

Abstract:

Buildings of the future are called to meet increasingly high-performance requirements and to ensure adequate environmental sustainability of the production and construction chain. This issue has stimulated a keen interest in the use of natural materials in construction. Among these, raw earth has proved to be particularly interesting for its intrinsic availability, sustainability, and recyclability. In Europe, the spread of raw earth building technologies has often been hindered by the lack of specific legislation regulating its use for load-bearing structures, even if in many countries, it ca

Abstract:

Due to the shortage of solid wood as a raw material of plywood and the abundance of oil palm trunk (OPT) waste in Malaysia, OPT has become one of the potential replacements for timber. However, OPT plywood has low performance compared with commercial plywood, due to the poor properties of OPT. There are many recent studies related to quality improvement using thermosetting impregnation, especially with formaldehyde-based resins such as urea formaldehyde (UF) and phenol formaldehyde (PF). Nevertheless, there are very limited studies related to palm trunk plywood using thermoplastic impregnation

Abstract:

India's metropolitan population is now the world's second-largest, and its projected growth is causing more demand in housing. To deal with this problem, India must urgently prepare for the acquisition of land and the rapid construction of housing units. In recent years, there have been significant modifications in the construction process. Buildings were created with the aim of load-bearing in mind in ancient times, and the RCC framed approach was established later. The RC structural wall technology is widely used at the moment. Aluminium formwork, also known as Mivan technology, is a

Abstract:

This study aimed to evaluate the differences between steel and timber formwork regarding cost, quality, and time of completion of building construction projects in Kuwait. Forty projects were selected to represent the construction business in the country. The study method was based on survey data collection (questionnaires, interview, and observation). The findings of the study showed that the contractors prefer to buy steel formwork than timber formwork system, although timber formwork is cheaper than steel formwork. Also the study found that the field of steel formwork reached a mean of (4.4

Abstract:

The success of any project depends on suitable and economical formwork arrangements and it accounts about 25% in the overall cost. The project completion time depends on the erection and de-shuttering of formwork. Proper planning, management and safety is very important to finish the project within the cost budget and satisfactory quality. This study focuses on the conventional type of form work using timber joists and stringers loaded with different types of spacing in an actually erected model. The soil has been compacted, consolidated before the erection of model. After erections, the entir

Abstract:

Timber-concrete-composite (TCC) floors are an example of hybrid systems that integrate different materials to achieve superior performance than the individual materials can provide. The structural and non-structural benefits of TCC floors over generic timber floors include increased capacity and stiffness, hallower depth, improved sound protection, and superior fire performance. Rapid erection due to the use of the timber as formwork, more economical gravity systems and foundations due to lighter weight, lower embodied energy, and reduced carbon footprint are advantages when comparing TCC syst
