 The FUVI® Honey Slab MDC System comprises the “Latest-generation” FUVI® HDPE formface composite panel. The MDC comprises Honey Panels (M), Honey Shoulder Panels (D), and Honey Dropheads (C). The Honey MDC System is recommended for uniform slabs in high-rise construction. The MDC System offers several distinct advantages over its prior generation offerings: (1) higher strength composite panels, (2) lighter overall system weight, (3) more cost effective per use, (4) highest durability, (5) higher quality, smooth concrete surfaces, and (6) faster formwork cycling times.

 The FUVI® Honey Slab MDC System is available internationally, as well as, in Vietnam.

 Honey shoulder panel ( D – Dad ): The Honey Shoulder or D Panel is an integral part of the Honey Slab MDC System. The panel design of the Honey Shoulder Panel is similar to Honey Panel design but differs in that it has two shoulders to support integration with other Honey Panels. Thus, the Honey Shoulder Panels give flexibility to Honey Slab MDC System allowing it to adapt varying configurations and multiple applications.

Honey Drophead ( C – Children ): The quickness of the FUVI^® Honey Slab MDC System is due to the innovative design functionality of the Honey Drophead or C member. The Honey Drophead is comprised of a core bar, a small plastic panel head (that supports the concrete slab at all times), and, an outer shoulder (that supports adjoining Honey Panels). Both the Drophead and outer shoulder are made of special plastic, while the core bar is made of high-strength steel (typical of common slab support props). When the Honey Panels are removed (by releasing and sliding the outer shoulder down the supporting core bar), the Honey Dropheads remain in place to support the full weight of the concrete slab above. Because the newly poured concrete slab is continuously and fully supported, the outer shoulders can be safely dropped within days of a pour to allow the easy removal of all Honey Panels (M and D) without sacrificing concrete slab support during slab curing phase. Net, when using the Honey Slab MDC System, there is no longer a need to wait 14 days for the slab concrete to cure before removing the slab formwork to move it to the next level or location.

 
When a building design requires integrated slab and beam construction, the FUVI® EH Drophead Slab/Beam System is the recommended formwork of choice. The EH Drophead Slab/Beam System comprises an EH Drophead, Exterior supporting frames, and EH Formface Panels for beams and slabs. The EH Drophead is comprised of a core bar, a small plastic panel head (that supports the concrete slab at all times), and, an outer shoulder. The EH Drophead design is similar to the Honey Slab Drophead, however, the outer shoulder of the EH Drophead is designed to support the EH exterior supporting frame. The outer shoulder supports the EH supporting frame, which in turn supports the EH Formface Panels for slab and/or beam construction. 

The FUVI^® EH Drophead Slab/Beam System has the same cost advantages as the Honey Slab MDC System allows: (1) easier formwork constructability, (2) faster formwork erection/removal speeds, and (3) the ability to reduce formwork costs and improve slab installation scheduling. The Drophead design allows for lower formwork investment costs (i.e. invest in one (1) slab set instead of three (3) sets). 

 The FUVI^® EH Drophead Slab/Beam System is available internationally, as well as, in Vietnam for all applications of slab and beam construction.

Jumpforms are designed to increase worker safety while minimizing labor and required crane time. The FUVI^® EH Jumpform System provides one of the most innovative jumpform designs available today. The EH Jumpform is specifically designed for liftcore and shear wall construction applications. The EH Jumpform comes in either an external or internal configuration.

The FUVI^® EH Jumpform System comprises the EH Formface Panel System, an upper working platform, and a strong, supporting steel frame equipped with special, high-strength hinges at its corners and along the sides of the supporting frame to improve operational efficiency. The design of the upper working platform improves worker safety and productivity by providing safe worker accessibility and equipment storage. The EH Formface Panels can be quickly interchanged to ensure continuous and uniform concrete surface quality. The FUVI^® EH Jumpform System is recommended for projects where precision, quickness, and safety are the required criteria for shear wall and liftcore construction. 

 External EH Jumpform : The External EH Jumpform transforms the FUVI^® EH Shear Wall System into a super-strong lifting platform, using lift brackets, frames, and shoes to allow the external jumpform to mount to the exterior walls, and, to safely climb or be lifted to next floor level.

Internal EH Jumpform : The Internal EH Jumpform also transforms the FUVI^® EH Shear Wall System in combination with Hinges at corners and sides into a super-strong interior lifting platform, using “Click-Clack” brackets, frames, and shoes to allow the internal jumpform to mount to the internal walls of the liftcore, and, to safely climb or be lifted to next floor level.

The benefits of the FUVI^® EH Jumpform System are : (1) strength and rigidity for high precision accuracy, (2) durability with long-term application, (3) reduced erection/movement times, (4) easy interchangeable EH panel replacement, (5) a strong upper deck for safe worker access and equipment storage, and (6) smooth, concrete surfaces.

Slipforming is the ultimate liftcore formwork system that balances speed while minimizing cost. Slipforming is a guaranteed time-saver for providing repetitive shear wall and liftcore construction.

The FUVI^® EH Slipform System comprises a variety of rigid steel-framed platforms, 25mm EH Formface Panels, high-strength plastic, vertical whalers, high quality, hydraulic jacks and a state of the art control system for uniform lifting and precision operational control.  Unlike steel- or plywood-formfacing, the FUVI^® 25mm, HDPE EH Formface Panel is lightweight and minimizes friction during operation to deliver the highest quality, smoothest concrete surfaces in the industry. Because of the light weight EH panels, the EH Slipform System hydraulics is more cost effective than the larger system hydraulics required for steel- or ply wood- formface slipforms. Slipforming provides rate of rises that can exceed 7-8 meters per day, (24 hour slide) or 2.5-3 meters per day (day shift only) resulting in reduced construction periods and cost savings.

The FUVI^® EH Slipform Systems can accommodate the requirements of the most complicated structures. Openings, tapering profiles, reductions in wall thickness and large embedment can be easily accommodated using various configurations and blockouts without sacrificing speed, quality, and/or safety. The EH Slipform System is designed for simple maintenance / cleaning operations to ensure no loss in schedule due to unforeseen down time. Although the benefits are many, the most important benefit of the EH Slipform System is its ability to change its configuration, wall width, and panel face faster and cheaper than the either the more costly steel- or less environmentally-friendly plywood formfaced slipform systems.
