Large Mobile Formwork Method
The unit-type sliding form construction method (USF method) is a large movable formwork method that combines general-purpose components with original components, making it easy to carry out formwork formation tasks [installation → stripping → movement]. It enables labor-saving, shortening of construction periods, and cost reduction, while also being extremely safe. With extensive experience, we provide reliable technology by packaging design, structural calculations, delivery, and assembly guidance. This method is registered with NETIS (New Technology Information System of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism).

basic information
● Shortened Construction Period The series of tasks (installation → demolding → relocation) can be carried out quickly while maintaining the original shape of the formwork, thereby improving workability and shortening the construction period. ● Cost Reduction Since skilled workers are not required and construction can be done with fewer people compared to conventional methods, significant cost reductions can be achieved. ● Improved Formwork Accuracy Composed of highly rigid components, it ensures uniformity along with structural accuracy. ● Excellent Safety The assembly and disassembly of formwork are greatly reduced, decreasing hazardous work. Furthermore, the formwork is self-supporting and poses no risk of tipping over, making it extremely safe. ● Environmental Consideration Using recyclable steel formwork, this method does not emit CO2 and is environmentally friendly.
