It is possible to solve this problem, first of all, by means of introduction of modern technologies and optimization of existing organizational and technological solutions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, hundreds of well-known skyscrapers were built on the basis of a reinforced concrete skeleton, including world record holders – the Burj Dubai tower (818 m high) and the Petronas Towers in Malaysia (432 m high). The potential of mix-in-situ concrete is not used to the fullest extent in Russia. Obviously, extention of the scope of its application in high-rise construction is facilitated by the development of new technologies, including creation and implementation of modern formwork systems. It is formwork systems and formwork technologies that basically determine the speed of construction and labor intensity of concreting operations [1, 2].<\/p>\n\n\n\n To date there are unresolved issues in the area of monolithic technology projects and the main ones are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Difficulties in choosing the most optimal formwork system for a specific development project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n – Insufficient informativity with respect to the rules and terms of concrete curing and further form stripping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n – High labour intensity of major types of construction and installation works. – Low quality of finished structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Low level of control over construction processes related to an improper regulatory framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Low quality of building materials of home manufacture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n An integrated approach to the organization and technology of in-situ concreting is needed to solve the above mentioned problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Improvement of applicable regulatory inactments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Improvement of solutions for the performance of construction and installation works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Development of approaches to solve organizational and technological issues affecting the economic efficiency and overall profitability of project implementation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2 Materials and Methods<\/p>\n\n\n\n A formwork system is a temporary or permanent construction form, which includes formwork and elements that ensure its rigidity and stability – supporting structures, scaffolds, and fasteners. There is a wide variety of formwork systems (Fig. 1).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hydraulically operated travelling self-climing forms are used in the construction of external walls of buildings, which height exceeds 30 storeys. They represent a formwork module consisting of outer and inner formwork panels, working scaffolds and form anchors. It should be noted that sometimes it is impossible to use creanes at an altitude exceeding 100 m because of winds and fogs. They can be used 4-5 days per week, and this time is enough to build at least 1 storey. Self-climbing forms solve problems of shuttering and mechanical formwork removal, formwork mechanical movement by height, ensuring of safe working conditions and maximum protection from wind. Formworks differ in nature; they are designed and manufactured for a specific project. Special projects involving formwork movement by height, a hydraulic distribution arm and individual cranes placed on the carcass under construction are developed for extremely complex high-rise buildings [3, 4]. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 1. Types of formwork systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The number of in-situ concreting operations performed, as well as their sequence, in which these types of formwork systems are used, is changed in the process of development of organizational and technological solutions for the improvement of formwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3 Results<\/p>\n\n\n\n When studying shuttering work processes, a number of operations, which optimization will reduce the duration of construction and, consequently, increase project efficiency were identified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Improvement of methods of formwork installation: <\/p>\n\n\n\n – rational choice of formwork, including enlargement of shuttering panels into reusable cards with no need to demount them and application of shaft formwork, which shorten the duration of shuttering works<\/p>\n\n\n\n – application of coatings eliminating adhesion and the need to lubricate formwork<\/p>\n\n\n\n – reduction of the distance of formwork movement by a crane<\/p>\n\n\n\n A reasonable approach to choosing a formwork system is an important factor for reducing the period of construction of buildings and structures. When choosing formwork it is necessary to take into account characteristics and parameters of a future building, dimensions of structures under concreting, as well as climatic conditions. Use of the latest formwork systems for the implementation of monolithic technology projects contributes to improving the use of technology and construction quality [5]. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A formwork system is chosen at the design stage, when the number of panels and the sequence of works on erection (dismantling) are selected. Main ideas and solutions for works optimization are considered at this stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A development project is divided into assembly areas, tiers, bays and a working project is drawn up for formwork system selection. Currently, there are many specialized software systems that allow carrying out a detailed calculation of the amount of formwork, its layout for horizontal and vertical structures. Introduction of optimization solutions allows to reduce the area of the shuttering system used and achieve the maximum possible reduction in the number of panels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Depending on the configuration of the structures being erected, the number of formwork panels is selected. By means of additional swivel and hinge elements formwork panels can be put longitudinally, transversally, perpendicularly. Formwork auxiliary elements are as follows [6]: <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 Leveling beams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 Scaffolds brackets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 Struts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 Clamps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A competent calculation of formwork elements affects the reliability of the system, which ensures the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 Strength and rigidity for various types of loads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 A possibility to use automatic means during installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 Humidity conditions that are required for concrete hardening and curing. \u2022 Fast installation and dismantling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 Convenience for repair and replacement of individual elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 Minimization of labor and material costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The maximum number of formwork elements is determined taking into account the technology of works execution and the sequence of construction processes in the course of a development project erection. Formwork panels for the construction of vertical and horizontal structures are selected based on the number of bays, 2 largest or 3 respectively. It should be borne in mind that one system is used for reinforcement works, the second one – for concrete works and the third one – for installation [7]. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In the course of the study it was found out that three sets on the floor for horizontal structures are not always enough in case of reduction of the time of works execution up to two days per floor. It is required to take into account one additional formwork set per bay. The formwork is removed from the structures when concrete cures and support racks are installed. Intermediate support racks are required only if concrete strength is 45-85% [3]. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To calculate the number of oversupporting racks, it is required to take into account several factors, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1) Climatic parameters, i.e. air temperature in the area of the development project construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2) Number of floors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3) Speed of works execution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4) Concrete hardening time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In order to calculate the number of oversupporting racks, it is necessary to calculate coefficient K. As a rule, oversupporting racks are calculated per floor, per bay or per one set of forms for floors. In practice, K coefficient per floor is calculated by the following formula for multi-storey development projects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \uf053i\uf03dn (m *n ) e i\uf03d1 i i<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u041a \uf03d (1),<\/p>\n\n\n\n k<\/p>\n\n\n\n K coefficient per bay or per workform system set will be calculated as follows: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Kz=Ke*Kbay (2),<\/p>\n\n\n\n where<\/p>\n\n\n\n mi – the percentage of oversupporting racks for a given level of intermediate strength<\/p>\n\n\n\n of a floor used for concreting divided by 100%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ni – the time of relevancy of this percentage of racks determined by the schedule of<\/p>\n\n\n\n concrete strength development in days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n k – the average speed of floor erection, days\/floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kbay – the number of bays on the floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kfw – the number of bays, for which a formwork set is designed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The following list of works presented in Table 1 is recommended to optimize the execution of shuttering works of vertical structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Table 1.

The comparison was carried out on the example of implementation of a 30-storey multifunctional residential complex with an underground parking. Construction is carried out using monolithic technology [8, 9]. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 In the first option the project is implemented taking into account the accepted organizational and technological solutions, where the average speed of storey erection is 3 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 In the second option the project is implemented in the ordinary and usual course (traditional technology), where the average speed of storey erection is 6 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The average time for the execution of works of a single cycle is 30 calendar days, taking into account delivery of the required resources\/materials. It is necessary to understand that there may be unplanned downtimes at the construction site for various reasons, so it should be taken into account when planning work days. As practice shows, most often a downtime does not exceed 10-15 days. As a result it takes 90 working days to build the carcass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As per calculation, about 95 m of concrete is poured per day: walls 0.22 m thick – 38 m3, horizontal structures 0.18 m thick – 57 m3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to the calculation, about 420 m2 of formwork is required for concreting of 1 bay of vertical structures. Carrying out simple calculations that take into account the volume of the concrete mix per day, it was found that 11m of vertical formwork is required for 1m3 of concrete mix. At least 840m2 of formwork is required for two bays to ensure uninterrupted works execution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Table 3. Comparison of technical and economic indicators of projects before and after the implementation of organizational and technological measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It was stipulated earlier that the technology of execution of formwork installation works to a greater extent depends on the chosen formwork. Formwork temporary indicators of “PERI ELPOS” and “TIPOS DOKA” systems are used for the implementation of the development project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It should be noted that organizational and technological solutions were implemented not only for formwork operations, but also for the execution of reinforcing and concrete works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n HOW TO RECEIVE PROJECT MATERIAL(S)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n After paying the appropriate amount (#5,000) into our bank Account below, send the following information to<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 08068231953 or 08168759420<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n (1) Your project topics<\/p>\n\n\n\n (2) Email Address<\/p>\n\n\n\n (3) Payment Name<\/p>\n\n\n\n (4) Teller Number<\/p>\n\n\n\n We will send your material(s) after we receive bank alert<\/p>\n\n\n\n BANK ACCOUNTS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Account Name: AMUTAH DANIEL CHUKWUDI<\/p>\n\n\n\n Account Number: 0046579864<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bank: GTBank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n OR<\/p>\n\n\n\n Account Name: AMUTAH DANIEL CHUKWUDI<\/p>\n\n\n\n Account Number: 3139283609<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bank: FIRST BANK<\/p>\n\n\n\n FOR MORE INFORMATION, CALL:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 08068231953 or 08168759420<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n AFFILIATE LINKS:<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n myeasyproject.com.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n easyprojectmaterials.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n easyprojectmaterials.net.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n easyprojectsmaterials.net.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n easyprojectsmaterial.net.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n easyprojectmaterial.net.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n projectmaterials.com.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
