Hanwha Construction announced on the 5th that it successfully developed and pilot-applied the 'Smart Formwork Lift-up Construction Method' for multi-family housing at the end of October.


The smart formwork construction method involves assembling factory-produced formwork on the ground and then installing it by lifting with lift equipment. Compared to traditional methods, this reduces reliance on crane equipment, shortens construction time and lowers costs due to decreased on-site work volume, and helps prevent safety accidents.


Additionally, it can be applied to flat slab structures where formwork methods are limited, and plans to expand its application to various sites including apartments and general buildings.


In May this year, Hanwha Construction signed a joint development agreement (MOU) with Plus Deck Co., Ltd., a company specializing in deck plate production, to jointly promote the development of the smart formwork method.


Since then, they began developing various formwork methods and within five months developed and filed a patent for the smart formwork construction method. This method was pilot-applied to the underground parking slab of the 'Hanwha Forena Incheon Guwol' apartment complex.



Yoon Yong-sang, Head of Hanwha Construction's Architecture Business Division, said, "With the development of this smart formwork construction method, we will continue to pursue win-win growth by enhancing Hanwha Construction's construction competitiveness and quality through technological collaboration with small and medium-sized partner companies that have ideas."
