Summary
• Tunnel tom is a formwork system that allows the
contractor to cast walls and slabs in one operation in
a daily cycle It combines the speed, quality and
accuracy of factory production with the flexibility
and economy of in sib]construction and Is
recognized as a modern method of construction
(MMC). • The economic advantage of tilt-up lies in its
simplicity and speed of construction. Compared to
other forms of precast concrete construction, tilt-up
eliminates the need for expensive transportation of
building components from the precast plant to the
job-site. • A tunnel form system is an ideal method to construct
buildings with repetitive elements or rooms. Tunnel
forms can be applied to both low-rise and high-rise
buildings that require repetitive room design. • Tunnel formwork has been used worldwide to
construct resort hotels, condominiums, apartments,
retirement homes, office buildings, hospitals,
townhouses, and prisons. Once used on a particular
project, they can be reused for continued return on
investment.
