INTRODUCTION OF ABS PLASTIC FORMWORK AS AN ALTERNATIVE OPTION TO TRADITIONAL FORMWORK SYSTEM

Abstract

In this paper, we are introducing an ABS plastic formwork system and talking about all the aspects of ABS plastic formwork. The large amount of deforestation has occurred in recent past causing environmental imbalance to our ecosystem. As a preventive measure to stop deforestation we should find alternative to wood formwork. In this point of view ‘ABS PLASTIC FORMWORK’ is only possible solution to this problem as it is recyclable, reusable and eco-friendly alternative. That’s why we are introducing the plastic formwork to replace the traditional formwork. ABS Plastic formwork is a new innovation is formwork industry,it is famous for its light weight , speedy construction andIn accuracy in work . Today almost over 350000 sq m of formwork is being used for constrution purpose all over the world. In our country ABS plastic formwork has been used on many construction projects and it has been proved to be economical. ABS plastic formwork has been widely used in gulf countries, europe, asia as well as all other parts of world. This technology is mostly suitable for huge housing projects to be completed in short period of time, where columns, beams, slab sizes are standard. This technology gives more accurate results and good quality of construction in optimum cost and minimum time.
