Mangaluru: Westline imports modern South Korean construction form works for Westline Signature
Mangaluru: Westline Builders , which is building the proposed tallest tower in South India at Nanthoor Junction in Mangaluru has imported the sophisticated construction formwork technology from South Korea recently. This enables the firm to build a super fast construction at a very high-quality finish, a release from the company said.
The most important aspect of a successful structural construction is the formwork system. To ensure best quality and fast completion, we have imported formworks from a wellknown South Korean company Kumkang Kind. It is one of the major manufacturer of aluminium formwork across the world and is known for their highest construction standards which ensures the most trustful, secure, efficient and cutting edge of formwork system technology available on the market, said Nasir Mohideen, MD of Westline Builders to Vartha Bharati.
Mr Nasir explained this modern form of construction, " these aluminium formworks are made of high strength aluminium extrusion which, compared with the conventional formwork allows large but lightweight panels. This Formwork produces an unbeatable concrete finishing, lesser number of joints thereby reducing the leakages and enhancing the durability. The Shear Wall technology with complete Raft foundation and the box type construction provides more seismic resistance to the structure. Also strong built up of concrete needs no maintenance."
Mr Nasir Mohideen added "this form of construction is widely used overseas especially in high rise structures. In India, it is catching up but due to high costs of import, it deters the builders from implementing. So its the fight between the cost over speed and quality. This methodology of construction allows a single pour of wall, beam, column, slab and staircases. Furthermore, the prop-head system will allow dismantling the slab panels without removing the props. Thus, achieving unsurpassed construction speed due to the light weight of forms and monolithic construction methodology for concreting. In the case of our project, Westline Signature, around 2.5 to 3 typical floors per month is planned to achieve. The structural work in these floors shall finish at once and up to 95% including clean surface walls which surpasses plastering finishes. Imagine it as a huge mould for the entire floor"
Further, he added "The advantage of Westline Signature over similar types of aluminium for work constructions is that in here you can easily merge flats on sides as well as top or bottom. That's mostly absent in similar constructions"
Westline Signature is the proposed tallest tower in South India and has obtained all government approvals including RERA. The project has received accolades from construction fraternity and is deemed a feather in the hat for the prospective gauge of the city.

Following the declaration of results, BJP workers celebrated across Kinnigoli. MLA Umanath Kotian, BJP district vice-president Sunil Alva, Mulki Town Panchayat president Satish Anchan, Mandal president Dinesh Putran, and other party leaders took part in the victory celebrations.
In Mangaluru taluk, the BJP secured a clear majority in the first-ever elections to the Bajpe Town Panchayat. Of the 19 wards, the BJP won 11 seats, while the Congress secured four seats, the SDPI won three seats, and one independent candidate was elected. Vote counting was conducted at the Mangaluru Mini Vidhana Soudha.
In Uttara Kannada district, BJP-backed candidates won a decisive majority in the inaugural elections to the Manki Town Panchayat in Honnavar taluk. Of the 20 wards, two Congress-backed candidates had already been elected unopposed. In the remaining 18 wards where polling took place on December 21, BJP-supported candidates won 12 seats, while Congress-backed candidates won six, taking the Congress tally to eight seats in total.
The Manki results have drawn political attention as the town falls within the home region of district in-charge minister Mankal Vaidya. Despite the minister’s influence, BJP-backed candidates secured a comfortable majority. Party workers celebrated the victories by bursting crackers and distributing sweets, with local leaders stating that the outcome would strengthen the party’s position in the region.
