State of the art formwork Solutions for major ongoing projects PERI India has been growing its footprints in the infrastructure & real estate sector in India. With landmark Infrastructure projects such as Mahatma Mandir, Statue of Unity, Agra-Lucknow Expressway, Hyderabad Metro, Mumbai Metro, Bengaluru Metro, Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL), and Lucknow Metro using our state-of-the-art formwork and scaffolding system, we have proved our mettle in delivering customised solutions for every complex need in a cost-effective manner.The Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) metro station is one such recent project. It is an underground station on the Mumbai Metro, a rapid transit system that is currently under construction. Upon completion, the BKC will act as an extremely important hub for passengers looking to change swiftly to line 2.A complex underground construction The 475-m-long and 30-m-wide underground station consists of two subterranean levels. The first level is 8.4 m high, ending with a 750-mm-thick slab. The second level is 5.50 m high and ends with a 1,200-mm-thick floor. Since all loads acting on the slabs are transferred directly into the columns, approximately 1450-mm-thick drop panels were used between the columns and the slabs.Constructing retaining walls at a depth of around 16 metresPERI came up with a special solution that ensured that the retaining walls could be constructed in only a single cast and in the sectional dimensions required: the single-sided SCS climbing system in combination with the Liwa panel formwork.The Liwa panel formwork was also used at the construction site in Mumbai for the construction of the 8.4-m-high columns. This allowed the construction site team to use the elements in a multi-purpose mannerModular scaffold system as a height-adaptable table supportThe construction site team came up against another challenge when it came to constructing the 750-mm-thick slab area and the 1,200-mm-thick roof floor covering a 24 m x 32 m single pour plan area. The solution came in the form of the height-adaptable table support PERI up flex Shoring Tower. With the aid of standards and horizontal ledgers of the modular scaffold PERI up flex and a few additional components, it was possible to erect shoring that was ideally suited to slab tables. It was also possible to adjust the positions of the standards so that they were perfectly equipped to deal with the loads to be transferred, with each standard being able to absorb a maximum load of 40 kN. To form the slabs, the table module VT slab table was used in combination with VT 20K formwork girders, which stand out due to their high cost-effectiveness.480 tonnes of formwork and scaffolding material delivered to the client’s construction site.PERI has delivered around 480 tonnes of formwork and scaffolding material to the client’s construction site. The planning and construction engineers from PERI have also been on hand to support and train the construction site team throughout the entire process to ensure that the major construction project is completed within the scheduled construction period.(Communication by the management of the company)
