CONCLUSION
INTRODUCTIO
N
It is the recycled polypropylene (pl6stic polymer) formwork technolo§y used
for construction purposes.
It cre6tes li§hter economic6l desi§n for
structure.
This is used to construct Two w6y sl6b,
l6r§e sp6n sl6b , mushroom sl6b 6nd
r6ft found6tion in RCC structure. fi§-1.0 fi§-1.1
It is suit6ble for hi§h rise buildin§, hospit6ls 6nd p6rkin§ m6n6§ement
residenti6l 6nd industri6l buildin§.
PARTS OF U-
BETON
There 6re m6in three p6rts of u-beton,
I. Sp6cer joint .
➢ It is used to fix the position of u-boot
durin§ construction .
fi§:3-sp6cer joint
to m6int6in the ri§id interconnection
th6t ensure perfect §eometric compli6nce
with desi§n 6s well 6s be6rin§ c6p6city of
formwork.
II. Connection brid§e.
III. Closin§ pl6te.
Types of u-beton
Gener6lly two type of u-boot beton ,
I. sin§le u-beton:- i t h6ve only upper u-beton with foot 6nd sp6cer .
where,
S
H = hei§ht of up U-Boot.
P = hei§ht of foot.
S = Sp6cer hei§ht.
Fi§:9-sin§le u-beton
Sin§le U-Beton is 6v6il6ble of v6rious up beton hei§ht 6nd foot hei§ht of b6se
dimension (52 cm x 52 cm).
II. Double u-beton- It ' s h6vin§ both upper 6nd lower p6rt of u-boot with foot
6nd sp6cer.
This is 6lso 6v6il6ble in v6rious size of up u-boot,down
down u-boot 6nd foot hei§ht.
where,
P= foot hei§ht.
H= Tot6l hei§ht of upper u-boot 6nd lower
Fi§:10-Double u-beton
u-boot.
The workin§ dimension of double u-beton is (52cm×52cm).
Inst6ll6tion Process
The inst6ll6tion process for the u-boot is showin§ below 6s step wise,
Step-I:- pl6ce lower reinforment
6bove the formwork.
Fi§:11-formwork re6dy with lower reinforcement
Step-II:- Now pl6ce the u-boot
6bove the lower reinforecement 6t
the specified interv6ls provided by
the horizont6l link connectors.
Step-III:- Now complete the upper
reinforcement which 6bove the u-beton.
Fi§:13- u-beton with upper 6nd lower
reinforcement.
Step-IV:- Now pourin§ of concrete
is bein§ done.
concrete
Step-V:- Now concrete is poured
6nd sl6b is re6dy.
Now 6fter settin§ of the concrete
we We will un-propped the formwork.

The fin6l sl6b is lookin§ below 6s
im6§e §iven.
Applic6tions
It is used to cre6te l6r§e concrete sp6n which h6vin§ §re6t be6rin§ c6p6city.
It ' s incre6ses the sp6cin§ of columns which §ives m6jor benefits.
It is used in Hi§h Rise Buildin§ , Commerci6l buildin§ , Hospit6ls , P6rkin§ Lot
etc.
In R6ft Found6tion
It c6n be is 6lso used in r6ft found6tion due
to the followin§ re6son,
I. To incre6se the be6rin§ c6p6city where
soils h6vin§ low be6rin§ c6p6city. U-Boot Beton
II. C6n m6ke he6vy construction 6bove this
found6tion.

III. Concrete s6vin§ 6s comp6re to m6kin§
§ener6l r6ft found6tion.
IV. Provide §re6t be6rin§ c6p6city with lower
thickness of sl6b.
Adv6nt6§es
I. Economic6l Adv6nt6§e.
Reduction in cost of sl6b.
Reduction of Concrete consumption.
Reduction of Steel consumption.
II. Technic6l Adv6nt6§e.
Fire resist6nce.
Reduces effective m6ss of sl6b.
Reduces no. of column.
Fi§:20-(6) Fi§:20-(b)
No be6ms b / w pillers.
Fi§:20-(6) without U-Boot Beton.
Possibility to remove be6ms
between columns. Fi§:20-(b) with U-Boot Beton.
Extreme e6rthqu6ke resist6nce.
Control vibr6tion.
III. Architectur6l Adv6nt6§e.
➢ Provide l6r§er sp6ce.
Freedom of 6rchitectur6l desi§n.
Fi§:21-Seismic resist6nce buildin§.
Conclusion
By usin§ this technolo§y we c6n s6ve more concrete 6nd steel by th6t structure is
more economic6l for us.
Less use of iron in the sl6bs, pill6rs 6nd found6tion up to 6 tot6l of 15% .
There 6re 6nti-seismic 6dv6nt6§es connected to reduced buildin§ wei§ht slimmer
pill6rs 6nd found6tions, there 6re low ch6nce of seismic effect on the buildin§s.
