JUMP FORMWORK TECHNOLOGY A TIME SAVING BOON FOR HIGH-RISE STRUCTURES

Abstract

The Indianpopulace hascrossing 125 Cr. In todays date. Hence in today’s date fulfilling thebasic needs in wayof living is getting difficult. To achieve the equilibrium between nature and human basic needs,findingnew wayis necessary. As there is animprovisation inpeople’s lifestyle hence,they are demanding the high standard facilities like infrastructure, modern housing. As the land percentage of non-agricultural area is less in our nationso rather than spreading horizontally,enhancing verticality constructionis the best option.The vertical developmentconsists of high-rise buildings, sky-scrapers, super-talltowers etc. For such constructions use of in-expensive formwork which is using conventionallyformwork isgoodbutnot enough asit doesn’t fulfil other needs such as quality, time and speed. Hence automation in advancedformwork i.e. Jump Formwork technique is the better option shown in this research paper. Also, in research workthe scheduling and sequencing of activitiesis made in Microsoft project and compared their duration with conventional formwork. The other factors which influencesproject are also discussed
