Ferrocement Structures
Section 01

Ferrocement High Rise Buildings

  • Reduce cost by about 10% of R.C.C.
  • Reduce time of construction by about 10% of R.C.C.
  • Eliminates formwork of columns, beams, slabs
  • Environment friendly
  • Inbuilt structural formwork
  • More durable, waterproof than R.C.C.
  • Does not require major repairs in its lifetime
  • Remains almost intact during earthquake and cyclone
  • Can swing by a metre or so with no damage
  • Resists fire for almost 48 hours at 750°C
  • Has less self-weight by about 50% of R.C.C.
Section 02

Inbuilt Ferrocement Structural Formwork

  • Thin section formwork for slabs, beams, columns
  • Manufactured on machinery set-up
  • Reinforcement of slabs, beams, columns incorporated in formwork body
  • Additional reinforcement can be provided if required
  • Formwork left permanently in the structure
  • Time saving of about 10-15% and cost saving of about 10%
  • Wiremesh in the formwork makes structures strong with negligible repair needs
  • All inbuilt formwork for slabs, beams, columns is well connected and monolithic
  • Best earthquake and cyclone resistant with least damages
  • Structure shall not require repairs almost for life time
  • Resists fire upto 750°C for 48 hours
