---------------------------------------------------------------------***-------------------------------------------------------------------- Proposed Construction scheduling Abstract - Various different advanced self-climbing construction systems have been developed and used worldwide. In recent times due to growing population and space constrains there is a need for tall high rise buildings. Throughout India there are various high rise residential developments. Some of these developments use advanced formwork systems like self-climbing formwork. But in Chennai it is not widely used but aluminum form work system is used. The aim of the study is to study, analyze and understand the application of self-climbing formwork in high rise building projects. As a part of the study various case studies of the selfclimbing form works used in India are explored and we attempt to conceptually implement the self-climbing formwork in a project in Chennai and analyze the differences. Key Words: Self-climbing formworks, jump formworks
formwork,
Various high rise residential projects from Mumbai is studied and analyzed as the part of the study with respect to time, cost and quality. Later suitable proposal is identified in Chennai to apply the findings of the case study where SPR High living in Chennai is identified as the site since it is the 1st tallest building in Chennai. It is constructed using MIVAN formwork. For this site we try to apply self-climbing form work and analyze the differences, results between two formwork systems and understand the viability of the advanced self-climbing form work systems in Chennai. From the study it is identified that when the combination of advanced formworks system used for (Walls & slabs) and self-climbing formwork used for (Core wall) total cost is 10.794 % higher compared with aluminum formwork.

2. METHODOLOGY
Self-climbing formwork system have been widely used in Indian metropolitan cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai for High rise residential apartment. It is a special formwork for tall concrete structures. It is an effective solution for repetitive construction. SCF is a crane independent formwork system which is widely used in Skyscrapers, Bridge Pylons, Airport Control Towers, High Rise Buildings, Elevator Shafts, and Silos. Its components include Platforms for concrete workers, Wall formwork, Lifting beam, Suspension platforms. This formwork also provides working platforms for construction crews. It also provide additional spaces for equipment and safety / weather protection screens. It also enables very large concrete structures to be constructed in one single pour thus creating seamless structures with enhanced strength and visual appearance, as well as reducing construction times and material costs significantly.
