How to fix MIVAN aluminium Formwork (Shuttering)

Image
Formwork: Form work  is  a mould for a structure. Into this mould,  fresh concrete  is poured to harden the concrete. The construction of formwork takes time and involves expenditure upto 20 to 25% of the total cost of the structure or even more. Design of these  temporary structures  are made to economic expenditure. The operation of removing the formwork is known as stripping.  Stripped formwork  can be reused. Reusable forms are known as  panel forms  and non-usable are called  stationary forms. Timber is the most common material used for formwork. The disadvantage with timber formwork is that it will warp, swell and shrink. To overcome these issues, MIVAN Formwork came into lame light there are many uses and even profits when compared with the timber formwork. <script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7854716011105726"      crossorigin="anonymous"></script> MIVAN ALUMINIUM FORMWORK: Mivan is an al

How to Calculate Specific Gravity of Cement and Its Importance

Image
What number do you think about the specific gravity of cement? We trust practically we all would recollect the value as 3.15 (really 3.12-3.19). Be that as it may, the greater part of us don't have the foggiest idea why we are figuring this value? In this post, we will clarify you about four things, which are: 1. What is Specific Gravity? 2. For what reason would we say we are computing this value for cement? 3. Noteworthiness of specific gravity of cement 4. Trial to decide this value What is the Specific Gravity of Cement ? Specific Gravity is only an examination between the heaviness of a volume of a specific material to the heaviness of a similar volume of water at a predefined temperature. Simply put, it is a value to compute whether the material can sink or buoy on water. Each material has some specific gravity. The value is ordinarily in digits like 0.1 – 100. On the off chance that the value is under 1, at that point the material will skim on water. In the event that the va
