  • Abstract:
  • One of the major industries driving India’s growth is construction. With the country having the second-largest urban population in the world, the need for housing is increasing quickly. To meet this demand, India needs to plan well for land purchases and fast construction of homes. In any construction project, formwork (the molds used to shape concrete) plays a big role making up about 35 to 40% of the total cost. It also affects how fast, safe, and good-quality the construction is. Both the client and the contractor want the project finished quickly the client so they can start using the building, and the contractor to earn more profit. One of the best ways to speed up housing projects is to reduce the time it takes to complete each floor. The type of formwork used plays a big role in how long the project takes. This study focuses on using aluminum formwork (specifically MIVAN technology), often used in tall buildings, by physically modelling a G+1 (Ground plus one floor) building. We’ve compared how MIVAN and regular (conventional) construction methods affect things like project time, cost, work quality, and whether MIVAN is suitable. We also made a cost estimate for both methods and created the building’s floor plan using AutoCAD. A market survey was also done to better understand the costs involved in making the physical model.
