This document discusses Mivan formwork technology. Mivan formwork uses pre-engineered aluminum forms for constructing walls and slabs in a single operation. It allows for fast construction with good quality finishes. Some advantages are speed of construction, accuracy, reusability of forms. Limitations include need for uniform planning and risk of cracks. A case study compares costs of Mivan technology to conventional construction, finding savings of around Rs. 548/sqm with Mivan. In conclusion, Mivan is a cost-effective tool that can maximize use of modern techniques for large housing projects.

CONTENTS

3. Mivan technology is a fast-paced construction
technique by using aluminium formworks.
Mivan is an aluminum formwork system
developed by a European construction company.
In 1990, the Mivan Company Ltd. from
Malaysia started manufacturing these formwork
systems.
To facilitate fast construction, early removal
of forms.

Mivan Formwork

3S – System of Construction – Speed, Strength, Safety.
Column and beam construction are eliminated.
Walls and slabs are cast in one operation.
Specially designed, easy to handle light weight pre-engineered aluminium
forms.
Fitting and erecting the portion of shuttering.
Carrying out concreting of the walls and slabs together.
USES OF MIVAN FORMWORK

5.  Fast construction is assured and is particularly suitable for large magnitude
construction of respective nature at one project site.
Construction carried out by this system has exceptionally good quality with accurate
dimensions for all openings i.e., doors & windows.
.Concrete surface finishes are good to receive painting directly without plaster.
System components are durable and can be used several times without sacrificing the
quality or correctness of dimensions and surface.
 As all the walls are cast monolithic and simultaneously with floor slabs requiring no
further plasters finish. Therefore the time required in the conventional method for
construction of walls and plastering is saved. 5
ADVANTAGES OF MIVAN FORMWORK

6. It requires uniform planning as well as uniform elevations to be cost effective.
Due to box-type construction, contraction cracks are likely to appear.
Heat of hydration is high due to shear walls.
It is rigid in design once placed, as any alteration becomes tough later.
The formwork requires number of spacer, wall ties etc. which are placed @ 2ft c/c;
these produce problems such as seepage, leakages during monsoon.
Services after completing become slightly difficult.

12.  It’s well known that the Mivan Technology reduces the cost of construction from
above analysis, hence the technology is useful to the construction company and
builder.
 MIVAN formwork played a vital role in the construction of the project. The project
was completed not only on stipulated period of time but also paid off with its
attributes. Speedy & quality dwelling units were provided to the people of low
income groups at very reasonable costs. MIVAN is a definitely future of this ever
growing construction industry with lots of project still awaiting its touch of
excellence.

CONCULSION OF CASESTUDY

13. Civil engineers not only build but also enhance the quality of life. Their creativity and
technical skill help to plan, design, construct and operate the facilities essential to life.
It is important for civil engineers to gain and harness the potent and versatile
construction tools.
MIVAN serves as a cost effective and efficient tool to solve the problems of the mega
housing project all over the world. MIVAN aims to maximize the use of modern
construction techniques and equipments on its entire project.
Thus it can be concluded that quality and speed must be given due consideration with
regards to economy. Good quality construction will never deter to projects speed nor
will it be uneconomical.
