"Description of Formwork"

-
                 

A temporary mould which is made from plywood, timber and steel and proper fixed with the help of MS pipe and bamboo and make the area will be too rigid with the help of tie rod or ghughoo nuts is known as formwork. In the formwork concrete is poured or formed.

Formwork is prepared by carpenter at construction site with the help of wooden batten and supporting angles which is made by MS plate. A good quality of plywood is used for shuttering. In shuttering used plywood will be water proof, proper thickness, more durable, hard and reusable.

The formwork sides will be proper fixed and it will prevent from leakage of cement slurry. During concreting when we apply vibration through vibrator, it will able to resist it.

Formwork base is known as soffit. The soffit is apply at base of the beam, roof, base of lintels, chajjas .

Important points for Formwork:-

     (1.)  Before fixed the formwork the specified area should be neat and clean with the help of water pressure and before it all unwanted material like as sawdust, shavings, chipping particles and rubbish will removed from that area.

     (2.)  For the cost control purpose, we will require to use formwork for its maximum time.

     (3.)  Formwork will be more durable and hard and capable to wear dead load and live loads.

     (4.)  Before using the formwork always use shuttering oil.

     (5.)  Before concreting, vertical reference line should be check with the help of plum bob.

     (6.)  During concreting, hammering will apply on all sides of shutting area.

     (7.)  After concreting de shuttering will apply.

     (8.)  After de shutting (ex-Column), all area should will be proper covered with gunny bags/hessian cloth/jute bags/sacks.

     (9.)  After that curing is apply for their specified time.

     (10.) More time will require for removal of formwork in winter is more than summer season.




Formwork removal time:-

When concrete will achieve their required time and it is proper set and after de shutting no any effect will apply on that structure, it is judged by their formwork removal time.

Types of Formwork:-

     (1.)  Timber Formwork

     (2.)  Steel Formwork

     (3.)  Plywood Formwork

     (4.)  Plastic Formwork

Note:-

    (1.)  The timber or plywood which will use in formwork will well season and before using shuttering         oil will apply.

    (2.)  The used timber or plywood will light in weight.

    (3.)  The timber will have their smooth surface, neat and clean and no any loose debris was inserted on        it.

Plastic Formwork:-

New technology introduce us plastic formwork. From the plastic formwork we got more benefits. Some benefits are following:-

(1.) Good Finishing

(2.) Light weight

(3.) Repetitive time use

(4.) More safer than plywood or steel formwork

(5.) Cost Control

(6.) Eco Friendly

(7.) Low maintenance

(8.) Prevent the environment

(9.) Recyclable

"Sewer Network Analysis"

The word sewerage is made from sewer. The word sewer indicates the usable water which is received from kitchen, bathroom and outfall from toilet/W.C. Every large or small city was held at sea, river and lake and it was planned at initial stage of the project planning, that the dirty water of homes and industries was dumped in that water source easily. Many years passed the dirty water from these utilities are dumped in the nearest source and that source water was make too poisons. Many aquatic life is survive in water and when dirty water is mixed with water source the biological cycle was affected and fishes and other animals population was decreases. Image Source:Pexels.com In that case population of human is also increases continuously and after that level of water source was decreases and we faced many problems continuously. Then sewer network is introduced. Outlet from all homes are connected to lateral lines means the water of kitchen, bathroom and water closet are co...

When the energy received by earth from the sun is known as “solar energy”. Solar energy is comes under renewable energy. Solar radiation is the utilized by the solar plates for further use. The working procedure of solar system is capture, convert and then distribution. Image Source:Pexels.com Solar system is categorized in two parts:- (1.)   Passive Solar: -   In this system the selected material have light dispersion properties and designing spaces that the circulate air naturally. This system reduces the need for alternative resourcs and generally focuses on demand side technologies. (2.)   Active Solar:- This system is based on photovoltaic modules (i.e. also known as photovoltaic panels) and collectors of solar thermal system to convert sun light into their useful output. Its increases the supply of energy. Image Source:Pexels.com Recent Post: Different energy sources Working Procedure:- In this system with the u...
