TOPICS:
Advantages
Formwork Mould into which concrete is poured to set to the profile of the mould.
Falsework The part that supports the formwork.
3. Can achieve any shape.
4. Homogeneous connections with all structural members/components, strong anchorage, bond and
lapping.
5. Can make alterations/changes until the concrete is poured.
6. Can make design changes.
7. Easy to monitor and coordinate on site.
Disadvantages
Advantages
1. Repetitive design.
2. Saves time and money 50% or more quicker than CIP system.
3. Safe working environment.
4. No wastage of material.
5. Maximum value of product.
6. Less number of people on site.
7. Robust construction energy efficient.
8. 60-90% manufactured of-site in controlled environment.
9. Components are quality controlled and ready to install.
10. Less inconvenience on site no noise, traffic disruptions, time to complete construction on site,
construction at any convenient time.
11. Quick construction design, manufacture/fabrication in factory, delivery, assemblage on location.
12. Building Information Modelling (BIM) helps in reducing design errors during manufacture, allows for
testing for clashes and clearance zones and construction sequence before pre-fabrication.
13. Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) helps in fabrication of identical/repeat/same components.
14. Accuracy at design stage allows for a tolerant design.
15. No inspection hassles.
16. Reliable construction schedule.
Disadvantages
CONCLUSION
a) Design.
b) Cost.
c) Feeling of satisfaction at the end priceless.
