Who benefits from BIM-based formwork?
4
Why CAD-based tools often pose challenges?
Lack of 3D visualization
Absence of process transparency and clarity
Higher onsite rework, material waste, and time
overages
Clashes between formwork components with 2D
drawings
Design ambiguities, greater RFIs during
construction, and task delays
Absence or inadequate collaboration
Absence of real-time data in CAD blocks
Improper use of formwork and project delays
Inaccurate or erroneous formwork proposals
Manual intervention and absence of automation

• Advantages of
• BIM-based Formwork Modeling

6
Provide greater clarity and transparency

• The Need
• A high-quality concrete casting

• BIM-based 3D visualization ensures
• Higher clarity and transparency through the
  entire formwork process
• Interdisciplinary coordination with
  bi-directional information exchange
• Accurate formwork modules-layouts before actual
  construction starts

7
Resolve clashes in the preconstruction phase

• The Need
• Reduce collisions between various formwork members

• BIM-based interdisciplinary clash detection and
  resolution ensures
• Preemptive interference-detection and resolution
  between various formwork members through clash
  detection
• Reduced rework and material waste to avoid
  project delays and save building costs
• Proper sequential planning of formwork with
  respect to each concrete casting

8
Better collaboration with the project team

• The Need
• Understand the design with greater clarity and
  relevance

• BIM enables higher collaboration with multiple
  project teams for
• Quick and accurate formwork planning and layout
• Effective and efficient handling of change
  requests or RFIs
• Faster identification and task assignment with
  greater clarity
• Enhanced visualization and simulation for
  improved onsite operations

9
Produce high-quality concrete cast elements

• The Need
• Garner greater accuracy and quality of concrete
  elements

• Use of 3D BIM in formwork design ensures
• Quick generation of formwork parts through ERP
  integration.
• Enhanced concrete pour cycles with BOQs and BOMs
  and evaluate multiple use of formwork and its
  prototypes.
• Efficient planning and alignment with real-time
  data and comprehensive construction sequencing.

10
Savings of cost time with BIM-based formwork
modeling

• The Need
• Savings of project cost and timely completion
  with short TAT

• BIM adoption for formwork in comparison to
  conventional methods results in
• Coordinated formwork with concrete casting leads
  to seamless construction
• Accurate material BOQs and BOMs lead to reduced
  material wastage and savings of project cost
• Proper planning with BIM-based tools leads to
  reduction of project hiccups and ensures timely
  completion with short TAT

11
Formwork construction for commercial office saves
20 time
Formwork production companies can save 20 in
production schedules, garner 100 output quality,
and achieve accurate and seamless project
documentation.
