Is aluminum formwork the 'leader' in high-rise buildings?

1. The advantages of the application of aluminum formwork technology in high-rise buildings.

1) Aluminum formwork technology in construction does not need the assistance of machinery and equipment. Only manual splicing and installation of aluminum formwork can be done, reflecting the characteristics of easy operation.

2) Aluminum formwork has strong load-bearing capacity, compared with the general template, and can withstand more pressure, which provides a guarantee for the stability of the building, thus reducing the occurrence of safety hazards in the construction process.

3) The use of aluminum formwork is more extensive, and its construction does not have too many restrictions. After the completion of splicing, the joint gap is small and has a high application rate, not easy to waste materials, so that the construction environment is neat and tidy, while having the simplicity of dismantling work and not easy to damage, it is resuable.

2. The comprehensive benefits of aluminum formwork

1) Technical aspect: The use of three-dimensional technology can convert the traditional two-dimensional plane drawing of the building and structure into a three-dimensional model, allowing for visualization of expression and communication, advance detection of design errors, and reduce unnecessary changes and rework.

2) Progress: 3 days/layers with an aluminum mold, 5–6 days/layers with a wooden mold, faster progress and effective cost control.

3) Management: the use of aluminum mold management personnel than the traditional template is reduced by half, and the process management than the traditional wooden mold is simplified by half, to promote the scientific construction and management refinement.

4) Quality: the top plate is flat, the wall is vertical, the beam is straight, the sense can reach the relevant quality standard requirements, and there will be no explosion of the mold phenomenon.

5) Safety: vertical transportation of the upper and lower layers of the formwork transfer safety risks are small, and to avoid the safety risks in the process of using the unloading platform, reduce the safety risks of the tower crane transporting materials.

6) Civilized construction: the use of aluminum mold demolition is completed, less construction waste, easy to clean up the floor, civilized construction standards, respond to environmental protection and save resources.

7) Indirect cost: the rental and management costs of auxiliary materials and machinery are reduced accordingly, thus improving economic efficiency.

3. Advantages of aluminum formwork

1) Long life, the average life of aluminum alloy formwork can reach 300-500 times or more.

2) All the structures are assembled with aluminum alloy formwork, and after the assembly is completed, it forms a whole frame with good stability and high bearing capacity.

3) The top mold and support system realize the integrated design, and the early dismantling technology is integrated into the top plate support system, which greatly improves the turnover rate of the formwork.

4) The aluminum formwork support rod is relatively less, with large operation space on site, smooth personnel and convenient material handling, which greatly improves the efficiency of site management.

5) After demoulding of the aluminum alloy formwork system, the concrete surface quality is flat and smooth, achieving the effect of decorative clear concrete.

6) The application range is wide, applicable to housing and residential construction, infrastructure, aqueduct and tunnel, etc.
