Applications Of Slip Form Construction
Slip form construction technique is the most appropriate substitute for the conventional formwork system that helps in horizontal and vertical construction. The slip form facilitates the process of constant pouring of the concrete to the moving framework. The process ceases when the estimated length of the casting is finished. Slip form construction is the primary technology involved to develop tall towering structures. How Is It Formed? The slip form framework is framed continuously in the vertical direction. It is essential to construct the core walls of high-rise structures like- towers, lift shafts, and stair shafts. It requires little crane-time during its construction since it is a self-contained formwork system. Any regular shape can be erected with this formwork system. The rate of growth of the formwork is 300mm per hour with its support and doesn't require any reinforcement for establishing the structure. There are three possible platforms in the formwork. ...
