The document compares aluminium formwork to traditional formwork, highlighting that aluminium systems allow for a four-day construction cycle per floor, while conventional systems require a minimum of 21 days. It notes that aluminium formwork provides excellent surface finishes, greater accuracy, good earthquake resistance, and lower material wastage, with a re-usage value of 250-300 times compared to 50-60 times for conventional formwork. Additionally, the aluminium system is deemed more economical for mass housing projects.
