Steel Backing: Driving Green and Efficient Construction, Empowering Global Landmark Projects
The global construction industry is undergoing profound transformation: green and low-carbon development, industrialized assembly, efficient construction, and intelligent management are irreversible trends. This context places higher demands on building formwork support systems—the need for solutions that are lighter, stronger, more durable, more reusable, and minimize resource waste. Steel backing, with its superior performance, is becoming a key driver of this transformation and is widely used in globally renowned benchmark projects.
How does steel backing fit into future construction?
A Practitioner of Green Construction:
The ultra-high turnover rate directly replaces large quantities of disposable timber, significantly reducing deforestation.
Significantly reduces construction waste generation (compared to timber loss).
Steel itself is 100% recyclable and reusable, with minimal environmental impact throughout its lifecycle. It perfectly meets the requirements of green building certifications such as LEED and BREEAM, helping to achieve the "dual carbon" goals.
An ideal partner for prefabricated construction:
The standardization and modularity of the material are highly consistent with the core requirements of prefabricated construction.
The material's lightweight and easy assembly and disassembly significantly improves the efficiency and precision of formwork reinforcement during on-site installation of prefabricated wall panels, composite floor slabs, and other components, making it a key component in ensuring high-quality and rapid construction of prefabricated buildings.
An engine for improving construction efficiency:
The lightweight design accelerates handling and erection, making it particularly suitable for commercial real estate and large-scale residential projects with tight construction deadlines, effectively shortening the overall construction period.
The streamlined workflow reduces manual labor and improves productivity.
A powerful tool for conquering complex projects:
The material's unparalleled strength and rigidity, as well as its exceptional stability, make it the preferred choice for projects with extremely demanding formwork support systems, such as super-high-rise building cores, long-span structures, and special-shaped curved structures.
It excels in advanced processes such as hydraulic climbing formwork and sliding formwork, ensuring a safe and reliable concrete pouring process and flawless form quality.
Global Application Examples:
Case 1: A Super-Large Commercial Complex in Southeast Asia
Challenges: Tight construction schedule, high quality requirements (premium finishes), low efficiency of traditional support, and high labor costs.
Solution: Our company's 80x40mm high-strength hot-dip galvanized steel backing was fully adopted for core wall and standard-story shear wall reinforcement.
Results: Wall construction efficiency increased by 30%, labor costs decreased by 18%, and concrete wall flatness tolerance was controlled within 3mm, meeting the plaster-free standard. The project received high praise from both the general contractor and the client, and was delivered on schedule with high quality.
Case 2: A Landmark Supertall Project in the Middle East
Challenges: Extremely high-altitude work, strong winds, and a complex core wall structure. The hydraulic climbing formwork system imposed strict weight and strength restrictions on the support materials.
Solution: Our company customized 100x50mm lightweight, high-strength steel backing for the core wall climbing formwork system. Results: The climbing formwork perfectly meets the requirements for rapid jacking. Its lightweight design reduces system strain, while its high strength ensures structural safety and stability under extreme wind loads. The project successfully overcame the challenges of high-altitude construction, achieved record-breaking construction speed, and boasts exceptional concrete quality, becoming a regional landmark.
